Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar

14th April 2010
Kind remembrances of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar on his 119th Birth Anniversary.

Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar devoted his initial life to acquire Universal Education in the midst of many limitations, unfavourable circumstances, and several inhuman treatments meted out to him by the then unjust Casteist Indian National Society. Still he did not violently protest or re-act at such ill-treatments like some un-civilized people would, in the similar circumstances, have done. Dr. Ambedkar silently swallowed all such insults and humiliations by the so-called upper Classes or Castes in the Hindu hierarchal Society. He was really a Maha-manav (Great Person). Dr. Ambedkar utilized his Universal Education and Knowledge acquired by him for the sake of others’ benefits and honestly and tirelessly worked and tried to bring about a Casteless Classless Equalitarian Indian National Society (Samtamulak Samaj Vyvasatha) in which all the Citizens of India ( i. e.Bharat) should be treated equally, civilly, socially, educationally, economically and politically. Dr. Ambedkar therefore incorporated in the Indian Constitution, amongst other provisions, the Right to Equality (Article 14) as one of the Fundamental Rights for all the Citizens of India without any discrimination based on caste, sex, religion, place of birth etc. Dr. Ambedkar is therefore worthy of remembrance on his 119th Birth Anniversary which falls today i. e. on the 14th of April 2010, as a Great Person (Maha-manav).of India. It is worth to emulate and follow Dr. Ambedkar’s akhand (undivided) ideals in Public Life by the posterity and by those who are living at present.
