Chaityabhoomi is a Buddhist memorial identified by a white stupa rising near the shore of Dadar Chowpatty. It marks the site where Doctor Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, the chief architect of the Indian Constitution and a leader of the Dalit Buddhist movement, was cremated on December seventh, nineteen fifty-six. His death in Delhi the previous day drew hundreds of thousands of mourners to this seaside location, an event that became one of the largest funeral gatherings in Indian history.
