"Today I appeal to everyone to take inspiration from Ambedkar's life that was full of struggles. He fought for the rights of the poor. He focused on education and we, too, are working towards it. It will lead to equality in society," Kejriwal said.

Ambedkar, known as the Father of Indian Constitution, died on December 6, 1956.
