Question

B. R. Ambedkar was elected to the Constituent Assembly from ____________
(A) West Bengal
(B) The then Bombay Presidency
(C) The then Madhya Bharat
(D) Punjab

Answer 1

Hint: The Constituent Assembly of India was chosen to inscribe the Constitution of India. Subsequent to India's independence from the British Government in 1947, its associates assisted as the country's first Parliament.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, also recognized as Babasaheb Ambedkar, was an Indian academic, legal expert, economic expert, politician and social reformer, who enthused the Dalit Buddhist undertaking and canvassed against social discernment towards the outcasts (Dalits), while also supportive of the rights of women and labour. He was independent India's first Minister of Law and Justice, the chief draftsman of the Constitution of India, and a founding father of the Republic of India. In his masterpiece “Who Were the Shudras?”, Ambedkar stressed to clarify the conception of outcasts. He saw Shudras and Ati Shudras who established the lowermost caste in the procedural ladder of the caste system, as distinct from Untouchables. Ambedkar supervised the revolution of his political party into the Scheduled Castes Federation, though it executed inadequately in the 1946 elections for Constituent Assembly of India. Later he was chosen into the constituent assembly of Bengal where Muslim League was in control.

Thus, option (A) is correct.

Note: Ambedkar contested in the Bombay North first Indian General Election of 1952, but lost to his previous associate and Congress Party contender Narayan Kajrolkar. Ambedkar became a member of Rajya Sabha, possibly a prearranged associate. He tried to enter Lok Sabha again in the by-election of 1954 from Bhandara, but he placed 3rd (the Congress Party won). By the time of the second general election in 1957, Ambedkar had expired.
