After UP, Bihar govt adds 'Ramji' to BR Ambedkar's name
A month after Uttar Pradesh added 'Ramji' to BR Ambedkar's name, the Bihar government announced its decision to introduce 'Ramji' as the Dalit icon's middle name in government and court records. The decision came on Ambedkar's 127th birth anniversary. UP Governor Ram Naik had said Ambedkar's father was named Ramji and it's customary to write father's name as middle name.
