Bahujan Samaj Party president and former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati paid tributes to Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar on his Mahaparinirvan Diwas Tuesday. She said if the successive governments had worked following the principles of the Constitution, crores of poor people would have got freedom from many troubles.
In a tweet, Mayawati said, “Huge respect to Babasaheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar, who blessed the country by giving a completely people-friendly, welfare and egalitarian Constitution, on his Mahaparinirvan Diwas. He made India famous in the country and the world by giving the best Constitution in every respect. The light he has illuminated is priceless. The country is eternally grateful to him.”
In another tweet, the former CM said, “I wish the governments of the country would have worked under the holy principles of the Constitution so that crores of poor people here would have got relief from many troubles. The alienation and failure in converting the ideals of the Constitution into ground reality and bringing good days to the people is sad and worrying.”
She further said, “As soon as the name of Babasaheb Dr Ambedkar comes to mind, one remembers the guarantee of people’s interest, welfare, protection of their property, religion and right to live with self-respect and self-respect under the constitutional rights. True concern for people who are deprived of livelihood, justice, happiness, peace and prosperity will be a true tribute to him.”
