Undaunted by these hardships and with sheer determination he rose to higher levels of education, official positions and in his self efforts, using the provisions of the Indian Freedom, Democracy and its Constitution and parental support as a stepping ladder. Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar as a source of inspiration, and taking the poverty as a challenge, he could pursue higher education in England and obtained his PhD in Structural Engineering from the University of Liverpool after hard working while leaving his family of mother, wife and four small children in India for three years.
