Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s Vision and Contemporary Indian Governance: A Comparative Data Analysis of Social, Economic, and Constitutional Realities

  • Unique Paper ID: 195615
  • Volume: 12
  • Issue: 11
  • PageNo: 969-972
  • Abstract:
  • Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s intellectual legacy extends far beyond his role as the chief architect of the Indian Constitution; he was a pioneering economist, a champion of labor rights, and a radical social reformer. This research paper evaluates the application and evolution of Ambedkar’s core philosophies constitutional morality, state socialism, and social justice within contemporary Indian governance. Utilizing a comparative data analysis approach, the paper contrasts Ambedkar’s mid-20th-century socio-economic blueprint with current policy frameworks, including the privatization of the public sector, the introduction of the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) quota, and the evolving nature of Indian federalism. The findings suggest a paradoxical reality: while Ambedkar’s constitutional mechanisms for affirmative action have significantly democratized political and educational spaces, contemporary economic policies have largely diverged from his vision of state-led egalitarianism, leading to widened socio-economic disparities.
