Briefly describe the history of the museum, its collection and donors.

The Ambedkar Samajik Parivartan Museum is situated in the grandiose premises of Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Samajik Parivartan Prateek Sthal. The sprawling Memorial Park was constructed during the administration of Mayawati of the Bahujan Samaj Party. One of the features of the 107-acres park is the museum, among others.

The museum commemorates the ideals of social justice and equality. It has twelve 18-foot marble statues of the stalwarts of these very ideals displayed in two sections that are interconnected by a hallway. It has six statues in each exhibit room, with the statue of the Bahujan Samaj Party leader, Mayawati at the centre. The domed roof enhances the overall aesthetic value of the museum building.

The first section of the museum has statues of Gautama Buddha, Sant Kabir, Sant Ravi Das, Guru Ghasi Das, Narayan Guru and Mayawati. The second section of the museum has statues of Kanshi Ram, B.R. Ambedkar, Birsa Munda, Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj, Jyotiba Phule and another statue of Mayawati at the centre. Each statue is engraved with the personal details and supplementary information regarding the ideals and principles that earmarked the stalwart's contribution to Indian society.

The museum offers no services and only serves the purpose of a memorial museum. However, Ambedkar Jayanti is celebrated at the Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Samajik Parivartan Prateek Sthal.
