Abstract
- Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, a towering figure in Indian history, championed the cause of social justice through his relentless efforts to eradicate caste based discrimination and promote equality. His educational philosophy emphasized the transformative power of education in dismantling societal inequities and empowering marginalized communities, particularly Dalits and other oppressed groups. The research delves into Ambedkar’s contributions to shaping India’s educational policies, particularly his role in advocating for the Right to Education and the reservation system, which aimed to uplift historically disadvantaged groups. It also addresses the contemporary relevance of Ambedkar’s educational ideals in tackling persistent issues of inequality and discrimination in modern educational systems. By analyzing his philosophies, this study underscores the significance of Ambedkar’s vision in fostering an equitable and inclusive education system that promotes social justice. Through a critical examination of historical and contemporary perspectives, this paper aims to provide insights into the enduring impact of Ambedkar’s contributions to social justice and their applicability in addressing present-day educational challenges. The findings suggest that Ambedkar’s ideas remain a powerful framework for reimagining education as a tool for achieving social equity and justice in India and beyond.
