Emancipation of Dalit women and Baba Sahib Bhim Rao Ambedkar.
2021
Abstract
Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar made continuous and concerted efforts to elevate the lives of Dalit women who were being exploited by social, cultural and religious institutions of Hindu society. He was one of the brilliant minds of his time and believed in the principles of equality and fraternity. He was deeply influenced by the western thoughts of gender equality and equality among all human beings. He was the beacon of jurisprudence and believed that the deplorable condition of Dalit and Dalit women could be improved only with tough constitutional provisions. To enshrine these provisions in the Indian constitution was his priority which he made as the head of the constitution committee of India after the independence. The objective of this article is to explore social condition of Dalit women of India before and after the independence and to find out how Dr Ambedkar emancipated Dalits and Dalit women with his Multi-thronged efforts.
The present study is chiefly based on secondary sources available in relevant literature, research journals, books and websites etc. Dr Ambedkar not only dreamed emancipated and dignified life for these deprived sections of Indian society but also realized his dreams with his meaningful efforts. The rights and privileges that Dalit women and Dalits have today is the results of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar’s missionary effort that he made selflessly without caring for political disadvantages that he had in his life. Posterity will remember him as the true well-wisher and Messiah of Dalits and Dalit women,
