  • Full Name: Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar

  • Born: 14 April 1891, in Mhow (now Dr. Ambedkar Nagar), Madhya Pradesh

  • Family Background: He was born into a Mahar (Dalit) family, considered “untouchable” in the Hindu caste hierarchy.

  • Struggles: Faced severe discrimination and humiliation due to his caste, even as a child in school — he was not allowed to sit with other students or touch the same water source.


Education

  • Degrees:

    • B.A. from Elphinstone College, Bombay (1912)

    • M.A. and Ph.D. in Economics from Columbia University, USA (1915–1917)

    • D.Sc. (Economics) from the London School of Economics

    • Bar-at-Law from Gray’s Inn, London

  • He was one of the most educated Indians of his time.


Social Reformer

  • He founded several organizations to uplift the Dalits and oppressed classes, including:

    • Bahishkrit Hitakarini Sabha (1924)

    • Scheduled Castes Federation (1942)

  • Key Movements:

    • Mahad Satyagraha (1927): For the right of Dalits to draw water from public tanks.

    • Temple Entry Movement: To allow Dalits to enter Hindu temples.

    • Burning of Manusmriti (1927): As a protest against caste-based discrimination sanctioned by the text.


Political Career
