14th of April is the day on which Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar had born. He was the man who wrote more than 90% of the Indian constitution and is called as father of 'Indian Constitution'. He fought for the upliftment of the Dalits (outcasts, untouchables).

Many people worship him like God. He played a crucial role in the achievement of the Indian Independence. He was one of the highly educated people in India, in those days. Hence was given the responsibility of writing the constitution.
