Abstract
Dr. Bhim Rao Ram ji Ambedkar is the great Political Leader of the 20th century of India’s Dalit peoples. He is also famous as the principal architect of the Indian Constitution. By criticizing the prevailing caste system, Dr. Ambedkar believed that it always facilitated the class character of a society. As an intellectual of the Dalit people, he was quite aware of the social inequality practiced within the so-called caste system of India. According to Ambedkar, Caste system was utterly irrational, inefficient, and a hindrance to the advancement of social production and general prosperity. He continuously fights for the separate political representation of the Dalits, the preferential reservation in education and governmental employment and for constructing their distinct cultural identity. So it was a noble attempt made by Dr. Ambedkar to initiate the reservation policy to uplift the socio-economics conditions of weaker class and also to a maintain equilibrium among varied class in Indian society at that time. This paper tries to highlight the social compulsion of the constitution makers regarding the reservation of that period and also analyzing the present scenario of reservation politics in India. It is a case study conducted in Laopati Village under Saikhowa Block of Tinsukia district of Assam. The Laopati Village is old revenue S.T village.
