    Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar was born as the fourteenth child of Mahar parents, Ramji and Bhimabai, on 14 April 1891 at Mhow, in present-day State of Madhya Pradesh. The Mahars are considered low- caste and treated as untouchables Dalits by higher-caste Hindus. They are mainly found in the State of Maharashtra. The father and grand father of Ambedkar served in the army and were of well-to-do family. But the stigma of being members of Mahar community caused their social oppression in a caste-ridden society. B.R.Ambedkar had a bitter taste of discriminatory treatment due his caste at an early age. He and his brother had to carry gunny bags to sit on inside the classroom because they were not allowed to sit on classroom chairs. They were denied drinking water facilities, and excluded from games and mixing with other children. Even teachers would not check their notebooks for fear of pollution. Thus sowed the seeds of discontentment about the Hindu social system in the life of B.R.Ambedkar.

    Mahatma Gandhi, and Dr. B.R.Ambedkar, the chief architect of the India shared many things in common. There existed sharp contradiction also in their approaches to social reforms and in details relating to political freedom. The scheme in Gandhi was very comprehensive; it never allowed social reform to remain aside of political freedom. Gandhi bumming foreign clothes and B.R.Ambedkar buming Manusmrithi were no mere acts of sentiments; for both foreign clothes and Manusmrithi had the effect of bondage and slavery for the countrymen. A Pinch of salt from God's ocean was a political catharsis and 'a drop handful of water from the Mahad tank' was the proclamation of social philosophy. These were no symbolic gestures; they were the outward manifestations or portents of the new emerging social and political patterns, for India, in the offing. Gandhi made it clear as, "The cities live upon the villages, India is daily growing poorer. In losing the spinning wheel we lost our left lung. We are, therefore, suffering from galloping consumption it is a sin to be foreign cloth in burning foreign cloth I burn my shame".

    B.R.Ambedkar was a saviour of the suppressed classes a noted jurist the chief architect of Indian’s constitution, a profound scholar, a daring leader and the greatest proper of Indian constitution. The role played by Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar has left its imprint on the social tapestry of the country after independence and shaped the political and civic contours of India today. It would have been a different India without him and in all probability, a much more inequitable and unjust one. He attempted to forge India’s moral and social foundations anew and strove for a political order of constitutional democracy that is sensitive to disadvantage in heritage from the past or engendered by prevailing social relations. He became deeply aware of the resources that history and culture offered for an emancipator project but argued that they can became effective only through the matrix of the present. Ideology is a key term in literary, understanding of the term Ideology is rooted in the writings of German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. In their original sociological analysis, they defined Ideology as "The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas. The class which has the means of material production at its disposal has control at the same time over the means of mental production. The entirety or the system of ideas of the ruling class would be the Ideology of a given society. The function of ideology would be the continual reproduction of the means of production and thereby to ensure the continuous dominance of the ruling class. Ideology achieves this by distorting reality. While in fact the split in ruling and subservient social classes is artificial and serves the needs of the economic system, the idea of ideology makes it appear natural. It makes the subordinate classes accept a state of alienation against they would otherwise revolt. This state of alienation has also been referred to as "false consciousness"
