“For a boy named Bhimrao Ambedkar, books did all that and more. Known as Babasaheb, he grew up facing challenges that might feel familiar—being treated differently, struggling to get by, or feeling like the odds were against him. Yet, through his love for education, he became a hero who built a fairer India. This book, “Babasaheb: The Symbol of Social Justice and Equality”, invites you to discover how a kid with a passion for learning turned hardship into hope.As a young boy in the “untouchable” Mahar caste, Bhim wasn’t allowed to sit with classmates or drink from their water jug. His family had little money, and he lost his mother early. But Bhim found a superpower in books. He read by kerosene lamp, saved coins to buy stories, and studied even when hungry. “Education is the milk of the tigress; whoever drinks it he may roar against the system,” Babasaheb once said, and he lived those words. His hunger for knowledge took him from a small village to great universities in America and England, where he earned degrees that helped him fight for justice.”
