Answer:
Dr .Bhim Rao Ambedkar also known as Dr B.R. Ambedkar was the chairmen of the Indian constitution.
His achievements can be counted of two types. The first list of achievements include his personal achievements like education where he has done good in economics, anthropology, law etc. and the result of three is:
Economy: It was Ambedkar who first suggested to have an institution like RBI in India, similar to what others have in their nation. Finally, based on Hilton Committee recommendation it was formed.
Anthropology: It was Ambedkar who like many others helped the Britishers in spreading the lies about Indian society. E.g. In 1872 British did first Census operation in India and at that time the literacy rate in India was just 3.72%. By 1901 it became 6–7% and on independence we had literacy rate of 16–17%. But British planted these ideas in Indian minds (which are equally supported by many historians and social scientists) that some people have gathered all the education and some people are not allowed to attend education. On independence these ideas were further used and people were made to believe that while they are educated or their parents are educated but in India we have a group of people belonging to certain communities who had no education, therefore need reservation. Further, in India Jati of an individual is basically a biologically identity. E.g. when a person marries in his own Jati it means that he/she has complete inheritance from that Jati. But Ambedkar propagated the ideas of British that Jati is a social identity only and people use it to oppress other
