Answer 1

Answer:

Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar ; 14 April 1891 – 6 December 1956), also known as Babasaheb Ambedkar , was an Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer, who inspired the Dalit Buddhist movement and campaigned against social discrimination towards the untouchables (Dalits). He was British India's Minister of Labour in Viceroy's Executive Council, a member of the Constituent Drafting committee, independent India's first Minister of Law and Justice, and considered the chief architect of the Constitution of India.

Answer 2

Sixty years since Dr Ambedkar, caste continues to remain a part of India’s social reality. May it be the discrimination that members of socially-backward castes undergo, or the subtler issues of matchmaking during marriages, the question of caste continues to haunt our society. Dr Ambedkar’s life and legacy, however, remains an inspiration for many who believe that caste hierarchy should cease to exist, and formation of an equal society is the way forward.

Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (1891-1956) was born into a Mahar (‘Untouchable’/ Dalit) family. His father served in the British Indian Army at the Mhow cantonment in the Central Provinces (now in Madhya Pradesh). Unlike most children of his caste, young Bhim attended school. However, he and his Dalit friends were not allowed to sit inside the class. Teachers would not touch their notebooks. When they pleaded to drink water, the school peon (who belonged to the upper caste) poured water from a height for them to drink. On days the peon was unavailable, young Bhim and his friends had to spend the day without water.
