Abstract | Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, a prominent intellectual and social reformer, significantly influenced the discussions surrounding women’s rights and education in modern India. During an era when women—especially those from marginalized castes—were denied access to educational opportunities, Dr. Ambedkar emerged as a vigorous proponent of inclusive and fair education. This research paper investigates the historical, political, and ideological impact of Dr. Ambedkar on women's education, framing his efforts within the broader quest for social justice and constitutional democracy. The study highlights Ambedkar’s actions as a policymaker, including his push for mandatory education, his role as Labour Minister where he advocated for maternity benefits and workplace equality, and his vital participation as the Chairman of the Drafting Committee of the Indian Constitution, guaranteeing the incorporation of gender-equal provisions in Articles 14, 15, and 16. Furthermore, the paper delves into his groundbreaking proposals in the Hindu Code Bill, aimed at legally empowering women through rights related to inheritance, marriage, and divorce. By critically analyzing speeches, legislative contributions, and educational reforms, this paper contends that Dr. Ambedkar’s vision for women’s education extended beyond mere literacy to encompass broader objectives of empowerment, dignity, and socio-political equality. His recommendations continue to be essential in current endeavors to achieve gender equality in education and beyond. |
