Summary, etc. The government proposed to establish a centre in Dr. Ambedkar’s name in the central vista area in New Delhi, bound by Dr. Rajendra Prasad Road, Raisina Road and Janpath in front of Jawahar Bhawan.

The allotted land consisted of 5 MP bungalows on Janpath which were cleared to create approx 3 acres of land for the centre.

The centre was conceptualised and envisioned as a world-class institution of national importance dedicated to a multi-dimensional study of social justice; meanwhile, the emphasis was to create an edifice incorporating Buddhist symbolism along with the persona of Dr. Ambedkar, encompassed in environmentally conscious architecture.

The broad components included a public library, a research centre, research facilities and a convention centre. An appeal was issued to a large number of institutions, social activists, civil society organisations and individuals, requesting them to offer their suggestions for the development of the project.

The starting point of the project was freedom of expression and to bring unity of the inside and outside. The building is designed as a contemporary response to the challenge of depicting architecture and democracy while reversing historical traditions. It is conceptualised as a building with an inner core; an atrium contained within the outer shell which orbits on the ideas of a free-flowing circular configuration of the inner centre, expressing liberalisation and freedom with an elegant geometrical contrast to the square geometry – a rigid constrains of the outer block.
