New Delhi : 03 June : The Minister of Social Welfare, SC/ST Welfare, Elections, and Cooperation Shri Ravinder Indraj Singh, participated as the Chief Guest in the international conference “Begumpura: A Road to World Peace and Harmony” organized by the Satguru Ravidas Research and Charitable Trust at the Deputy Speaker Hall, Constitution Club, on Tuesday. Former Madhya Pradesh High Court Judge Justice Suresh Kumar Kait and Swami Gurdeep Giri Maharaj Ji were also present on the occasion.
The SC/ST Welfare Minister stated that the message of unity, equality, and brotherhood shared by the great saint and social reformer Sant Ravidas remains a guiding principle for global peace and harmony even today. His life symbolizes the creation of a just society through spirituality, devotion and social cohesion. The vision of Begumpura presented by Sant Ravidas was of a society free from discrimination and socio-economic segregation — an ideal model for any nation or society around the world.
Shri Ravinder Indraj Singh added that while Sant Ravidas awakened society through spiritual consciousness, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar empowered the marginalized through constitutional means. The guiding force behind the present central and Delhi governments’ “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” approach draws inspiration from these ideals.
The Minister further emphasized that Dr. Ambedkar provided the marginalized sections of society with the tools of education and dedication towards their goals. The rights to equality, liberty, and social justice enshrined by him have empowered the underprivileged to become self-reliant and actively contribute to nation-building.
Shri Ravinder Indraj Singh also shared that the values of public service instilled in him by his father and the vision of Dr. Ambedkar have had a profound impact on him, which is visibly reflected in the welfare policies and initiatives of his department.
