Veteran actor Arun Govil, best known for his iconic portrayal of Lord Ram in the television series ‘Ramayan,’ recently participated in an outreach program honoring Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar in Lisadi village, Rithani Mandal.
The visit was part of the comprehensive “Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar Samman Abhiyan” (Dr. Ambedkar Honor Campaign), specifically under its Scheduled Caste Intellectual Outreach Program initiative. During the visit, Govil met with social activist Dr. Dipanshu at his residence in Lisadi village.
Purpose Of The Visit
The primary purpose of the visit was to extend a personal invitation to Dr. Dipanshu to participate in an upcoming intellectual symposium honoring Bharat Ratna Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the architect of India’s constitution. This special event is scheduled to take place on April 24, 2025.
The images from the visit show Arun Govil engaging with Dr. Dipanshu and other community leaders in what appears to be a cordial meeting environment. The actor, maintaining his dignified public persona, was seen interacting respectfully with all attendees.
Notable Attendees
Dr. Charan Singh Lisadi and Rithani Mandal President Aditya Sharma ‘Cheenu’ were present at the meeting, along with other respected workers from the mandal. The gathering highlighted the importance of community engagement in honoring Dr. Ambedkar’s legacy and contributions to the nation.
The Instagram post concluded with “Jai Shri Ram,” a phrase commonly associated with Govil due to his role as Lord Ram in the iconic television series that made him a household name across India.
Broader Campaign Activities
This visit is part of a larger outreach effort under the Dr. Ambedkar Honor Campaign. According to recent posts from the same account, similar visits have been made to other community leaders and social workers in different localities.
In Kankarkheda Mandal’s Ward 41, a similar outreach was conducted at the residence of social worker Chaman Lal, where he was also invited to the April 24, 2025 symposium honoring Dr. Ambedkar. Ashok Sablok, the Kankarkheda Mandal President, and other workers were present during that visit.
The campaign has also reached Shastri Nagar, where social worker Charan Pal Singh was invited to the same symposium. During this event, attendees unanimously supported the “One Nation, One Election” proposal being discussed at the national level.
Arun Govil: Beyond Lord Ram
Arun Govil’s participation in this campaign adds significant weight to the initiative. While he rose to unparalleled fame portraying Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar’s ‘Ramayan’ during the late 1980s, Govil has maintained a respected position in Indian society beyond his acting career.
According to his Wikipedia profile, Arun Govil was born on January 12, 1957, in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh. Though he began his career with films like ‘Paheli’ and ‘Sawan Ko Aane Do,’ it was his portrayal of Lord Ram that cemented his place in Indian cultural history.
In recent years, Govil has been increasingly active in public and social causes. He joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in March 2021 and has been engaging with various social and cultural initiatives across the country.
The Legacy Of Dr. Ambedkar
The campaign honoring Dr. B.R. Ambedkar underscores the continuing relevance of his contributions to Indian society. As the chief architect of India’s constitution and a tireless advocate for social justice, Dr. Ambedkar’s legacy continues to inspire social movements and governmental policies aimed at creating a more equitable society.
The symposium planned for April 24, 2025, will likely explore various aspects of Dr. Ambedkar’s philosophy and its application in contemporary India, bringing together intellectuals, social workers, and public figures like Arun Govil.
Other Recent Activities
According to other recent posts from the same Instagram account, the individual has been actively involved in various community initiatives beyond the Dr. Ambedkar Honor Campaign.
These include participating in discussions about the “One Nation, One Election” proposal at the Meerut Municipal Corporation board meeting and the Indian Medical Association Meerut, where the proposal received unanimous support from the intellectuals present.
The account also shows involvement in educational initiatives, including the inauguration of a Computer Education Center at Sanatan Dharma Saraswati Shishu Mandir Inter College in Kankarkheda, Meerut, and the distribution of scholarship checks to financially weak but meritorious students at the Meerut Institute of Engineering & Technology.
Through his participation in programs like the Dr. Ambedkar Honor Campaign, Arun Govil continues to maintain his connection with the public while supporting meaningful social initiatives.
