Dr BR Ambedkar Remembrance Day or Ambedkar Jayanti or Bhim Jayanti is celebrated every year on April 14.
Life struggles of Ambedkar
Born on April 14, 1891, in Madhya Pradesh’s Mhow, Ambedkar faced discriminations since childhood as he was born into a Mahar family which was considered as one of the lowest or in other words ‘untouchable’ castes in the country at that time.
He is the only member from his caste to be enrolled into the prestigious Elphinstone High School in Bombay. During his school days, he faced oppression from the upper caste teachers and staff. He and his Dalit friends were not allowed to sit inside the classroom with other students. They were not allowed to drink water from the earthen pot placed in the school and only the peon (who belonged to the upper caste) used to pour water from a height for them to drink instead. And there were days when they had to spend without drinking water in absence of the peon.
However, he overcame those hurdles and went to Columbia University to complete his postgraduate studies. He later went to the London School of Economics to complete his doctoral thesis and finished two doctorates from there.
