B.R. Ambedkar championed gender equality by advocating for women's education, economic independence, and political participation, believing these were essential for their dignity and liberation. He pushed for legal reforms, like the Hindu Code Bill, to grant women equal family and societal rights. Ambedkar also emphasized upholding women's modesty and dignity, criticizing religious and social systems that oppressed them, particularly within the Hindu community. He promoted a humanist perspective for all women, irrespective of religion or caste.
