Life and Work of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar

On April 14, 1891, in the small town of Mhow in Madhya Pradesh, a child was born who would change the destiny of a nation — Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar. Born the fourteenth child in a poor Mahar family — considered “untouchable” — young Bhim faced cruel discrimination from society. But Ambedkar’s spirit was unbreakable. He began schooling in Satara, Maharashtra, and went on to Elphinstone College in Mumbai, thanks to a scholarship from the Maharaja of Baroda. He earned his degree in Economics and Political Science in 1912, breaking barriers no one from his community had crossed before. His thirst for knowledge took him to Columbia University, where he earned an M.A. and Ph.D., and later to London, where he became a barrister and earned a D.Sc. in Economics. His education wasn’t just academic — it was the weapon he would wield in the fight for justice. Returning to India, Ambedkar became a leading lawyer and social reformer, defending non-Brahmin leaders, workers, and the oppressed, often without charging a fee. He founded the Bahishkrit Hitakarini Sabha in 1924 to uplift Dalits through education and awareness. He led historic movements to end untouchability, demanding equal access to public water and temples. Though offered high-ranking posts like Chief Justice of Hyderabad, he declined — determined to remain with the people, not above them. In 1926, Ambedkar entered politics as a member of the Bombay Legislative Council. A decade later, he founded the Independent Labour Party, giving voice to Dalits and workers alike. His political journey gained momentum, but his biggest role was yet to come. After India’s independence, Ambedkar was appointed India’s first Law Minister and made Chairman of the Constitution Drafting Committee. As the principal architect of the Indian Constitution, he ensured it upheld the values of equality, liberty, and justice for all. Dr. Ambedkar’s life was a fight — not just for himself, but for millions of marginalized Indians. He embraced Buddhism in 1956, continuing his message of peace, equality, and compassion. On December 6, 1956, India lost a titan. But his voice echoes in our Constitution, in our rights, and in every step toward a more just society. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar — the champion of social justice, the Father of the Indian Constitution, and the voice of the voiceless.
