The Delhi Government will organise an international level play based on the life of Babasaheb BR Ambedkar. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Monday that his Government will hold the play at the JLN Stadium on January 5. He added that the play will be staged by well-known actors with international level production values.

 "I have now taken a vow that I will fulfill his dream. It has been 70 years and still the poor of this country are unable to get quality education. “Babasahab Tera Sapna Adhura Kejriwal Karega Pura,” Kejriwal said.

 Hailing Ambedkar for earning two doctorates and 64 masters degrees in his life, Kejriwal said, "while today we find it tough to get even one."

"The musical play will be based on his life, his thoughts, his ideas and ideology and will have the most famous artists and experts take part in it. A hundred feet stage is being prepared along with a production of international standards. The entry will be free to all so that each and every child can watch the show and seek inspiration from his life. We are perhaps the first nation in the whole world that is trying to extend the reach of Babasahab’s legacy in such a manner.” Kejriwal said.

“The government will organise 50 shows and the entry will be free for all.Babasaheb is perhaps the greatest son of the Indian soil who spent his whole life to uplift the oppressed,” he added.
