Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar

 

Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar can be said to be one of the foremost architects, not just of the Indian constitution, but also of modernity in India as we know it. His excellence spanned many disciplines. As a jurist, economist, political leader and advocate of social justice, he is one of the twentieth century’s most formidable minds, whose voice campaigned tirelessly, and impactfully, for Dalits and other marginalised Indians. He was also independent India’s first law and justice minister. You can read more about his life here.
