- Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar University located Agra will be renamed as ‘Aambedkar University’ as per the amendment.
According to the recommendations made by the Governor of Uttar Pradesh Mr. Ram Naik, the legislative assembly of UP has passed an amendment to the UP State Universities Act. According to the latest amendment, Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar University located in Agra will be renamed as ‘Aambedkar University’. The name change had been proposed in the legislative assembly after discovering that Dr. BR Ambedkar had signed his name in Hindi on the Constitution of India as ‘Aambedkar’. The signature of Dr. Ambedkar was found on the 254th page of the Indian Constitution.
Mr. Ram Naik indicated that Dr. Ambedkar’s name, which is usually written, as ‘Ambedkar’ is wrong. The signature in the 254th of Indian Constitution, i.e., ‘Aambedkar’ is correct and the same spellings must be adopted, he added.
