R. B. More

Ramchandra Babaji More (1 March 1903 – 11 May 1972) was a political leader and campaigner with a particular focus around the struggle against the Caste system in India and Class exploitation in the Indian subcontinent.

[clarification needed] He was born on 1 March 1903, in a Dalit/Scheduled Caste family of agricultural workers at the Ladavli village in Mahad Tehsil in the state of Maharashtra.

With the aid of some social reformers, he began sending letters to the British government for being denied admission to Mahad High School despite being awarded a scholarship on completing his primary education.

[4] In spite of the fact that More joined the then Communist Party of India in 1930, under the influence of Marxism-Leninism, he and Dr. Ambedkar continued to maintain mutual admiration for each other's work.

[5] He also participated in the freedom struggle against British and working class movement with great vigor and remained "one of the most respected leaders of the CPI(M) till his death on 11 May 1972".
