JAMMU, Jan 20: As part of the nationwide Samvidhan Gaurav Abhiyan (Constitution Pride Campaign) organized by the Bharatiya Janata Party, a program was held in Jammu North Constituency’s Mandal Raipur-Domana, wherein the life and contributions of Bharat Ratna Dr B R Ambedkar were remembered with reverence.
The event, graced by the presence of MLA Jammu North, Sham Lal Sharma, Sanyojak Ajay Manhas, and other prominent dignitaries, was organized under the leadership of Mandal President Rohit Verma.
Sham Lal Sharma, while addressing the dignitaries, highlighted the pivotal role played by Dr Ambedkar in framing the Constitution of India. He stated, “Dr. Ambedkar envisioned a nation built on the principles of equality, justice, and democracy. His dedication to uplifting the marginalized and ensuring a just society through the Constitution remains unmatched. Today, as we celebrate the Samvidhan Parv, it is our responsibility to uphold his legacy by promoting unity and inclusivity.”
Sharma emphasized that the Constitution reflects the values of our great civilization while ensuring the principles of modern democracy. He further underscored the importance of educating the younger generation about the values enshrined in the Constitution. He said, “Dr. Ambedkar gave us a framework that is not just a document but a guide to building a just and equitable society. It is imperative that we instill these values in our youth so that they understand the sacrifices made by our leaders and work towards preserving the democratic ethos of our nation.”
Sharma also criticized the Congress Party for its divisive politics. “For decades, Congress has divided people on the basis of caste, region, and religion. It has failed to nurture the true essence of democracy as envisioned by Dr Ambedkar. Instead of promoting unity, their policies created rifts in society. It is only under the leadership of the Bharatiya Janata Party that we see the realization of Dr Ambedkar’s vision of a united and strong India,” he added.
Ajay Manhas, Prof OP Sharma, Sanjay Bhat, Rekha Manhas, Neelam Virdhi and others also spoke on the occasion.
