ABSTRACT | ||
Dr Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, a preeminent figure in the socio-political history of India, is widely regarded as the architect of the Indian Constitution and a relentless advocate for social justice. His philosophy was a powerful blend of personal experience, academic rigor, and a deep commitment to social justice. His vision for a just society was grounded in the principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity which he conceptualized as essential for fostering harmony and progress in a deeply stratified and hierarchical society. Throughout his life, Dr Ambedkar pursued a transformative agenda aimed at dismantling the oppressive structures of caste, ensuring equal rights for women, and uplifting marginalized communities. His vision remains a beacon for efforts to build an inclusive and equitable India. In a world still grappling with issues of inequality and injustice, his vision offers valuable insights and inspiration. His life and work remind us of the power of resilience, education, and collective action in the pursuit of a just and harmonious society.
