Dr. Ambedkar has been acknowledged as a great thinker and activist of the modern age. His interest was varied and widespread. There is hardly any substantive’ issue on which he did not express his views in a cogent manner. With the passage of time, many of his observations and ideas, as he foresaw them in matters of social, economic and political issues, are now proving a true. Almost right from the beginning, Dr. Ambedkar’s ideas attracted public attention. His protest movement for justice to the downtrodden masses of this country attracted world-wide attention, and that culminated in a variety of ways in composition of the Indian Constitution of which he was the chief architect. The present book is a study of the thoughts and observations of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar who has played the part of destiny in the liberation of the suppressed masses of India, particularly the Untouchables. It depicts his heroic struggles for raising the downtrodden to human dignity which will shine as a golden chapter in the history of this nation and in the history of human freedom as well. This is an attempt to give in short the myriad sides of his life in its proper historic perspective and intended t provide a representative Cross-section of the Credo of a great thinker of the twentieth century. If it helps the general public know the real Ambedkar, the object of writing this book will be amply rewarded.
