He also thanked Prime Minister for working in the direction of Dr. Ambedkar and bringing the backward classes to the mainstream.
Ambedkar was born on April 14, 1891, and so every year on this date, India celebrates Ambedkar Jayanti.
‘भारत रत्न’ बाबासाहेब डॉ भीमराव अंबेडकर जी की जयंती पर उन्हें श्रद्धापूर्वक नमन करता हूँ। उन्होंने हमे न्याय और समता पर आधारित एक ऐसा सर्वसमावेशी और प्रगतिशील संविधान दिया जिससे भारत के सभी नागरिकों के लिए स्वतंत्रता, समानता बंधुत्व और सामाजिक न्याय सुनिश्चित हो सके।

Babasaheb's birth anniversary is a public holiday across the country, where schools, banks and some public sector organisations remain closed.
Fondly known as 'Babasaheb', Ambedkar was the chief architect of the Indian Constitution and so is also called the 'Father of Indian Constitution'.
Not only was he the creator of the Indian Constitution, but Ambedkar was also the first Law and Justice minister of free India.
Babasaheb was born into an impoverished Dalit Mahar Family in Madhya Pradesh. He fought tirelessly for the equal rights of marginalised sections of society. He was a part of active movements since 1927 against untouchability. Later he was revered as a 'Dalit Icon' for his contributions towards their rights.
