Ambedkar Jayanti is also known as Bhim Jayanti and is celebrated as a public holiday in India since 2015. Ambedkar made significant contributions toward the establishment of India, drafting of the Constitution and gave ideas for the foundation of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). In 1956, Ambedkar converted to Buddhism. BR Ambedkar was conferred the country’s highest civilian honour, Bharat Ratna, posthumously in 1990.

Ambedkar died after being bed-ridden for a brief time in 1954. He suffered from diabetes and his health worsened the following year. Ambedkar completed the final manuscript of his book on Buddhism ‘The Buddha and His Dhamma’ in December 1956 during this time. Three days later, on 6 December, he passed away in his sleep at his home in Delhi. His birth anniversary is widely observed by the Dalit community in India.
