The present study deals with the concept of humanism of Dr. Ambedkar in view of his thoughts based on rationalism, socialism, pragmatism, democracy and human rights. The ideas of Dr. Ambedkar reflect the spirit of humanism right from the beginning of his life-journey to the end of the last moments of his life. Whatever Dr. Ambedkar spoke, wrote and taught to the downtrodden, he stressed the need of humanistic approach for the emancipation of the oppressed and the weaker sections of Indian society, especially, the untouchables and the womenfolk.
