Abstract | ||
B.R. Ambedkar was one of the rare personalities who not only tried to solve the problem of untouchables but was also adequately concerned with social justice for all. Dr. Ambedkar himself born on lowly family had bitter experiences in his life within the domain of caste system. His early life was full of experiences. But most of them were painful discouraging and sometimes even disgracing, barring some exceptions. However, the effect of some influences and impacts was long enduring on him. Ambedkar’s life, ideals and were also a projection of various formative influences. In his social and political ideas, the discerning reader will discover a rich synthesis of various influences and impacts. A study of the formative influence is therefore helpful in understanding Ambedkar’s ideas and activities. While, most individuals either adjust to situations, some succumb to them, others confront them and strike out new paths and lead the people on it and Ambedkar was one such leader out of a whole galaxy of leaders India has had in the first half of the 20th century. Ambedkar was a sociol-reformer-politician who was in full knowledge of the facts of social and political life in India. He knew how weak the caste-divided, Untouchability-ridden, Indian society. He was quite conscious of the role of caste in the society and in the politics of his times and was able to anticipate the dimensions in which it was to grow in the post-Independence politics of India. Ambedkar aspired to establish equal status in religion, social, economic and political matters for all, offering them an opportunity to rise in life. He thought that social environment was as much responsible for human sorrow as man himself was. Dr. Ambedkar made significant efforts to lead the society on the path of liberty, equality and fraternity. Thus, the main objective of this present paper is to highlight B.R. Ambedkar with his values on social justice. And also, it attempts to focuses on Dr. Ambedkar’s struggles and ideas on social justice. Keywords: Values, Social, Justice | ||
