Ramabai Ambedkar

Ramabai worthy daughter of Bhiku Dhutre of Wanand a village in the Dapoli sub-division. Ramabai was married to Bhimrao in 1906. Though Babasaheb married in 1906 at age of 17 his real martial life was to start now. When he again gone to England money was soon finished. Ramabai's brother Shanker and sister Gaurabai were labours. Their earning was just eight or ten 'Ana' that day.
Ramabai bought groceries from it and cooked the food. Sometimes they slept with hungry stomach. This conditions was send to Babasaheb by mail, on it Babasaheb said that " I am in same circumstances I don't have money to buy a food I don't have money to. send you. If circumstances might be hard then sell the ornaments, I will give new one when I' ll be back. In the

same letter Babasaheb made an inquiry for Yashawant and Mukund. When Babasaheb came back to India some social welfare want to give some money and award But Babasaheb politely and clearly refused it.

Ramabai was a symbol of contentment of heart, nobility of mind and purity of character. She had passed the major portion of her life in pinching poverty, spent days and nights in anxiety for her husband's safety and health, observed rigid fasts, on Saturdays took only water and black gram, worshipped God, and invoked his blessings on her Saheb. Her eyes, her hands and her thoughts were devoted to the service of her Saheb. When Bhimrao was pursuing higher education in London, his family was made to eat things not meant for human consumption. But Ramabai never complained. Due to lack of proper food, care and the sorrow of the death of her four children reduced her to a skeleton. And despite numerous treatments she left Bhimrao desolate on 27th May 1935. On her death, people christened him as a saint. But yearning for uplift of 7 crore Dalits and to fulfill the last wish of Ramabai, he gave up his sainthood.
