BR Ambedkar wrote a 20-page autobiography about his experiences with
untouchability which is known as ____________.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Waiting for a Visa.

  • “Waiting for a Visa” is a short autobiographical account by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, written in 1935-36 and first published as a booklet by the People’s Education Society in 1990.
  • In 1993, this text was included in Volume 12 of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar: Writings and Speeches, published by the Education Department of the Government of Maharashtra.
  • The title, “Waiting for a Visa,” thus suggests how the ‘untouchable’ Dalit community still awaits acceptance or welcome not only from the Indian government but also from the society in general.
