About Babasaheb Ambedkar

On April 14, 1891, Dr. BR Ambedkar, often known as Babasaheb, was born in Mhow, which is now in Madhya Pradesh. He was Ramji Maloji Sakpal's 14th and final child. Babasaheb, a Dalit from a low-income family, saw the injustices and atrocities that his community endured. Dr. BR Ambedkar and other Dalit students were forbidden from touching the water or the container at school; instead, someone from a higher caste would fill the container for them. Additionally forbidden from sitting in the classroom, Babasaheb used to sit on a gunny sack. The social reformer spent his entire life fighting for the rights of the disadvantaged and strongly opposing social ills like untouchability and caste prejudice.
