Ambedkar On Caste And Women Empowerment

Abstract

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar's perspectives on women's oppression, social democracy, caste, and Hindu social order and philosophy have greatly influenced modern Indian feminist thinking. According to Ambedkar caste systems play a significant role in both the systemic level and the functioning of patriarchy, and there is a growing gap between caste and class in feminist political discussions. In light of the current circumstances in society, it is crucial to thoroughly examine the extensive scope of his concerns, the profoundness of his perspective, the logic of his analysis, and the intrinsic humanistic quality of his prescriptions for practical actions. Dr. Ambedkar is a significant and influential figure in the Indian women's movement. His efforts have played a pivotal role in formulating a feminist political agenda that adeptly tackles the intricate matters of class, caste, and gender.
