Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was one of the most impactful individuals who have ever lived in India as he transformed the social and legal aspects of the country. Coming from a Dalit family background, he was subjected to extreme oppression, which greatly shaped his perception of social equity. He was an accomplished academic, acquiring degrees from noted universities such as Columbia University and the London School of Economics. While serving as the head of the Drafting Committee of the Indian Constitution, Ambedkarβs influence was instrumental in including provisions of upholding justice, equality, and safeguarding the rights of minorities.
Ambedkarβs untiring efforts towards fighting discrimination based on caste inequalities, and his advocacy for the rights of the Dalits – the emancipated βuntouchablesβ β deeply integrated him into the framework of Indian history as βthe father of the Indian Constitution.β The work he did towards the removal of untouchability and consideration towards social reforms with his adoption of Buddhism in 1956 significantly transformed the socio-political fabric of India. He pioneered the campaign for human rights in India and his lifeβs work remains a source of inspiration for countless people in social movements around the world.

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was born Bhimrao Ramji Sakpal. That was the name his family boreβthey were of the Mahar caste, who were “untouchables” during that time. Now here’s where it turns around:
When Bhimrao was at school in Satara, a Brahmin teacher named Krishna Keshav Ambedkar befriended him. But as caste society was doing the most, Bhimrao’s own earliest surname, Sakpal, branded him instantly as “lower caste.” So this teacher, perhaps attempting to ‘assist’ or perhaps merely desiring to distance Bhimrao from the baggage of caste, enrolled him for school using his own surname, “Ambedkar.”.
And that’s the name that accompanied Bhimrao into history. Consider this: an entire legacy tied to a name he did not even choose for himself. But what is poetic is how Bhimrao reversed that name and rewrote the narrative. He transformed Ambedkar into a badge of resistance, of intellect, of equality, of liberation.
