Explanation

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was the Chairman of the Drafting Committee of the Constituent Assembly, responsible for drafting India's Constitution. He was also the chief architect who presented and defended the Constitution before the Assembly. While Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel handled the integration of princely states and Nehru was the Prime Minister, Ambedkar's legal expertise and drafting skills made him the natural choice for this crucial role. The committee had 7 members, but Ambedkar did the bulk of the work.
