Kanshi Ram
Kanshi Ram was an influential Indian politician and social reformer, best known for founding the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) in 1984, a political party focused on the rights and welfare of the Dalit community and other marginalized groups in India. Born on March 15, 1934, in Punjab, he dedicated his life to the upliftment of Dalits and worked tirelessly to challenge the caste system and promote social justice. Under his leadership, the BSP gained significant traction in Uttar Pradesh and emerged as a formidable force in Indian politics, advocating for the empowerment of Dalits and advocating against caste discrimination. His vision laid the groundwork for future leaders like Mayawati, who would further the party's agenda and political influence in the region.
