In her keynote address, Dr Darakhshan Andrabi paid tribute to Ambedkar Ji’s lifelong fight for equality, observing, “We take pride in building our nation on the constitutional principles he bequeathed us. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, we have witnessed a golden era of reinforcing constitutional spirit in every sphere of governance and public life.” She noted that while “Congress & Company” has decried threats to the Constitution over the past eleven years, the Modi government in fact introduced Samvidhan Divas and has strengthened India’s constitutional framework.

They vowed to carry his message of equality and inclusion to the grassroots through ongoing BJP outreach programs.
