The
year 2015 marks the 125th Birth
Anniversary year of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar. The contribution of Dr. Ambedkar
in social, political and economic sectors is enormous and he is one of the key
founders of Modern India. The life of Dr. Ambedkar is an inspiration to
millions. Growing up in a very challenging environment and having faced many
difficulties in childhood, Dr. Ambedkar completed his higher education in best
universities of the world, only due to his sheer determination, tremendous hard
work and humility.
He is known as the
architect of Constitution of India. The hard work done by him in the drafting
of the Constitution, made it a powerful tool for social and economic
empowerment of the downtrodden, which is praiseworthy. Dr. Ambedkar ensured
that there are appropriate checks and balances in the democratic system of
Government and ensured that the three wings of the Executive, Legislature and
Judiciary, function independently with accountability to one another.
