Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, who was more commonly known as Babasaheb Ambedkar, was an innovative leader, jurist, and social reformer who had a big impact on India’s future.
As the person who wrote the Indian Constitution and a strong supporter of social justice, he spent his whole life working against prejudice, casteism, and unfairness.
On Independence Day, it’s important to think about Dr. Ambedkar’s wise words, which still ring true with the ideas of democracy, freedom, and equality.
In this article, we look at a few of Dr. Ambedkar’s most inspiring quotes, which show how dedicated he was to the ideals that support our nation’s independence and progress.
