ABSTRACT

Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar was the first Indian to study economics abroad. He was a key role in the struggle for Indian independence and contributed to the constitution's writing. His major justifications for the Aryan invasion theory, women's rights, and water conservation all aimed to better the general population's standard of living. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar proposed in 1928 that the concept of a universal adult franchise for elections be integrated into India's future Constitution. On May 13, 1952, the Lok Sabha, or House of People, convened for the first time. He made the 14-hour workday in India into an 8-hour one. Saubhagya Scheme aims to reach 30 million rural families, of which 20 million have access to the internet. Hindu Code Bill gives all Indians access to constitutional protections for women.

Article 17 ended untouchability and forbade discrimination on grounds of race, religion, caste, sex, and place of birth. The Maternity Leave Benefit Act 1961 was passed as our first maternity leave law. Babasaheb Ambedkar believed that the Shudras were Aryans and vehemently opposed the idea of an Aryan invasion. He agreed with the Marxist thesis that the wealthy few's exploitation of the underclass caused poverty to persist. This descriptive study exclusively draws data and information from secondary sources that are relevant to the topic at hand. It is a descriptive and diagnostic design from a theoretical standpoint. Secondary data is compiled from a variety of reports, both published and unpublished.

A theoretical review of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar's theoretical contributions to Indian society, including his work on women's empowerment, the Aryan Invasion Theory, and water conservation, from an analytical perspective is the overall objective of this article in the context of the aforementioned. The study paper raises a significant, urgent, and relevant subject that is pertinent from a social, political, and economic standpoint. The theme of the article is immediately apparent from the title alone and is taken very seriously.
