Jai Bhim

This salutation honours B. R. Ambedkar, an Indian academic turned politician.

Jai Bhim (alternatively spelled Jay Bhim or Jai Bheem; transl. "Victory for Bhim", "Long live Bhim" or "Hail Bhim") is a slogan and greeting used by followers of B. R. Ambedkar, an Indian politician, social reformer and first Law and Justice Minister of India. It refers to Ambedkar's given name Bhimrao.[1][2] In 1935, Jai Bhim was conceived and developed by Babu L. N. Hardas (1904–1939),[3][4] a staunch follower of Ambedkar, and the secretary of Samata Sainik Dal.[5][6] However, its origin is obscure and may date as far back as 1818, well before Ambedkar's birth.[7]

Jai Bhim is also called as a slogan by some political parties like the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), Republican Party of India (RPI).[8][9][10]
