community. His father's name was Ramji and mother's Bhimabai. Ambedkar was the
fourteenth child in family. He was called as Bhim and Bhiwa earlier. Dr. B.R.
Ambedkar is among the most educated persons of those time as well as in current
India. Education was the privilege of the upper castes in those days. He was
made to experience segregation and resultant isolation. But his hard work ,
determination , urge of knowledge made him the most educated and learned man of
India (Omvate:2005,3). Later on he framed the constitution of India and is
known as the" Father of Indian Constitution". Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's
view on importance of education can be felt in following words - "It is
the education which is the right weapon to cut the social slavery and it is the
education which will enlighten the downtrodden mass to come up and gain social
status, economic betterment and political freedom."
