JAMMU: A delegation of Bhartiya Dalit Sahitya Academy led by its President and former Chief Secretary BR Kundal today called on Speaker, J&K Legislative Assembly (JKLA), Abdul Rahim Rather at Assembly Secretariat here.
During the meeting, Kundal donated 22 books titled “History of Dr BR Ambedkar” to the Assembly Library, which the Education Department of the Maharashtra Government publishes.
Appreciating the initiative, the Speaker said that BR Ambedkar was the chief architect of the Indian Constitution, a peerless jurist and a relentless champion for the marginalised. “His life stands as a testament to the power of education over prejudice and the triumph of the human spirit over systemic oppression,” he added.
The Speaker further said that these books on his life history will definitely inspire the generations to come, and his philosophy continues to serve as a guiding force for social justice, equality, liberty and fraternity.
Secretary Legislative Assembly Manoj Kumar Pandita, besides representatives of the Academy, including PL Bhushan, HR Phonsa, Nagar Mal, RL Bhagat, and Vinay Bhagat, were also present.
