Abstract::Dr B.R. Ambedkar, a staunch supporter of women’s empowerment, completely revolutionised early modern India. This article is designed to understand his contribution towards the upliftment of women’s status in society. His feminist ideologies not only led to improvement in the conditions of women but also made them aware of their basic fundamental rights. Ambedkar’s intellectual sharpness portrayed his moral courage towards the long-term goals of national growth. In this period, many reformers and leaders came onto the scene. The interesting point here was that they all knew about the oppression happening to women in various ways, but they somehow didn’t take a firm stand for their rights as Ambedkar did fiercely, with full respect towards women. Women are an important pillar of society that needs to be respected towards their unpaid work. This article will explain Ambedkar’s personal and public perspectives and key contributions to creating strong and courageous women by providing them a platform.

Key Words::Ambedkar, Empowerment, Fundamental Rights ,Nation, Rights, Women etc.
