PATNA — A month after Yogi Adityanath-led UP government decided to introduce Ambedkar’s middle name ‘Ramji’ in state records, Bihar government announced to update the name of Father of the Constitution adding middle name  in government and court records.

The Bihar Government on Saturday announced to introduce Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar’s middle name ‘Ramji’ in government and court records, reports ANI.

Bihar government has taken this decision on the eve of 127th birth anniversary of Dr B R Ambedkar.

The campaign to write Ambedkar’s name correctly was initiated by Uttar Pradesh Governor Ram Naik in December 2017.

Dalit icon Dr B R Ambedkar was an Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer who inspired the Dalit Buddhist Movement. He campaigned also against social discrimination against untouchables and also supported the rights of women and labourers.
