Ambedkar: The Founding Father of Modern India - E-book - ePub

This book is an engrossing account of one of India's most outstanding and influential personalities. Born from the "untouchable" caste, B. R. Ambedkar surmounted enormous difficulties to become a lawyer, philosopher, and social reformer who devoted his life to defending the rights of India's underprivileged populations. Ambedkar was a vociferous opponent of the caste system and a dedicated fighter for social justice from the time he was a student.
He played a significant role in the development of India's constitution, which outlawed untouchability and created the groundwork for a more democratic and equal society. Ambedkar never wavered in his determination to create a better world for all Indians, despite encountering prejudice and criticism throughout his life. This book offers a vivid image of a man whose legacy continues to inspire millions of people today.
