Main Article Content

Chandrakant Koligudde

Abstract

Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar's Educational philosophy is reflected in his educational thoughts. Education is the comer stone of progress and upliftment. It leads to increased awareness and social consciousness of the people and provides for more responsible leadership of the nation. Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar knew well that the more the education, the more the chances for progress and the easier the opportunities for Oppressed and depressed communities but since he thought that by giving his people political power, the problem of their education would be automatically solved through governmental efforts and agencies, he devoted his time and talent more to securing political rights than to securing educational uplift.
