Baroda mein bhedbhaav bhare anubhav ke baad Bhimrao Ambedkar Bombay laut aaye. Dimaag mein dard tha, lekin man mein ek naya sankalp bhi. Unhone tay kiya ki samajik nyay ke liye kanooni gyaan zaroori hai, aur is gyaan ka srot ab bhi London hi tha. Unka pehla London ka admission 1916 mein ho chuka tha, lekin us waqt scholarship samapt hone ke kaaran unhe padhai chhod kar wapas aana pada tha.
Is baar unhone bina kisi sahare ke London lautne ka faisla kiya. Unhone Bombay mein kuch samay tak private tuitions liye, vakalat ki, aur apne kuch purane savings se paisa ikattha kiya. Iske alawa, unhone ek Gujarati businessman ke saath ek samjhauta kiya — ki wo uske bete ko padhaenge, aur badle mein London ki padhai ke liye kuch arthik sahayata milegi.
1920 mein Ambedkar ne dobara London School of Economics mein admission liya. Saath hi, unhone Gray’s Inn mein bhi admission le liya, jahan se wo barrister banne wale the. London ka environment Columbia se alag tha — thoda formal, thoda sangathit, lekin gyaan ki gehraiyon se bhara hua.
London mein unhone samvidhan, nyay pranali, British constitutional history, aur samajshastra ka vistar se adhyan kiya. British Parliament ka kaam dekhna, unke debates sunna — ye sab Bhimrao ke liye ek jeevant classroom tha. Unhone samjha ki kanoon sirf kitaabon tak seemit nahi hota, balki wo ek jeevit sanrachna hoti hai jo samaj ko disha deti hai.
London mein rahkar unhone Bharat ke liye ek aisa samvidhan sochna shuru kiya jo jaati, dharm, ling ke aadhar par bhedbhaav na kare. Unka lakshya tha — ek aisa nyayik aur samajik drishtikon jisme sabko barabari ho.
1921 mein unhone LSE se M.Sc. ki degree poori ki. Unka thesis tha “Provincial Decentralization of Imperial Finance in British India”, jisme unhone British Bharat ke arthik sangathan ka vishleshan kiya. Saath hi Gray’s Inn mein barrister ki training bhi jaari thi.
Par unki tabiyat ab dheere dheere kharab hone lagi thi. Saath hi, Bombay se bulaava bhi aa gaya tha — Bombay University mein unhe Political Economy ka Professor banne ka aamantran mila. Unhone tay kiya ki ab wapas Bharat lautna chahiye.
1923 mein Bhimrao Ambedkar London se Bharat laut aaye — is baar sirf degree ke saath nahi, ek vichar, ek drishtikon, aur ek sapne ke saath. Bharat ke liye ek aisa samvidhan tayar karne ka sapna jo sabko nyay de, aur kisi bhi vyakti ko jaati ke aadhar par kamzor na hone de.
London ne Bhimrao Ambedkar ko kanooni aur arthik soch ki gahraai di. Columbia ne unka man banaya tha, aur London ne us man ko ek disha.
Ab unka kadam tha — zameen par utarna. Bombay ke andolanon, patrikaon, aur jan sabhaon mein utarna — jahan se ek samajik kranti ki aag shuru hone wali thi
