Solution

The correct option is B B R Ambedkar
B R Ambedkar was born in a lower caste family and faced discrimination in his school and college life. He soon established his leadership among dalits. He succeeded in obtaining special representation for them in the legislative councils of the government. As the law minister of independent India, he took a leading part in the framing of the Indian constitution and outlawed the practice of untouchability. His efforts for the upliftment of lower castes and abolishing the caste system in India is well documented.
