Can you guess the personality who was denied an education but still fought his ways to become the law minister of India? It was Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the father of the Indian Constitution. Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar was born on 14th April 1891 in Mhow, Madhya Pradesh. The place is now known as Ambedkar Nagar. He was the son of  Ramji Maloji Sakpal, who held the rank of a Subedar in the British Army. Back in those days, people were judged and treated based on their caste. Since Dr. Ambedkar came from a backward caste, he had to face a lot of discrimination in his life. He was even stopped from studying but one of the teachers in his school encouraged him to continue his studies and even gave him his surname.

He completed his higher education in 2-4 years and studied for 21 hours a day. He is the only person from India who received the title of Dr. of All Science from London University. Not only did he continue studying law once he came back to India but he also got associated with many social causes like women empowerment and caste upliftment. People used to call him “Baba Sahib” out of sheer respect. In 1936 he created his political party and started preparing for elections.

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was the first Indian to complete his Ph.D. in Economics from abroad. He knew 64 subjects and 9 languages. He was the first Indian law minister and was also responsible for forming the Constitution of free India. He received a Bharat Ratan Award in 1990 for all his hard work and achievements. Not only this, there are a lot of universities and colleges named after him. The Statue of Equality is a monument under-construction in Mumbai dedicated to Dr.  Ambedkar, the father of the Indian Constitution.

Let’s celebrate the life and achievements of this great Indian personality.
