This article argues that unlike Jawahar Lal Nehru, Dr. Ambedkar did not merely desire for maximizing economic growth, rather he stood for the value based economic development in which the labour forces particularly from the marginalized sections i.e., scheduled castes and backward classes could enhance their standard of living. Dr. Ambedkar envisioned a better plan for the distribution of national income to the common people. Such a vision of inclusive labour policy was reflected in the context of water management and irrigation. Dr. Ambedkar highlighted the need for cheap and abundant electricity in India.
