“He was a visionary leader, social reformer, and the principal architect of the Indian Constitution. Born on April 14, 1891, in Mhow, Madhya Pradesh, he faced severe caste discrimination but overcame these challenges through his remarkable academic achievements,” he said, adding that he was a staunch advocate for social equality and justice and he dedicated his life to fighting caste-based oppression and uplifting marginalised communities.

Saroa said Ambedkar’s biography serves as an inspiration for those seeking to learn about his pivotal role in shaping modern India.
