Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav arrived in Indore on Tuesday to take part in a special event organised by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
According to information, the program was held at Ravindra Natya Grah as part of the "Bharat Ratna Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar Samman Abhiyan."
Along with the Chief Minister, BJP’s National Vice President and former Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje also attended the event.
BJP city president Sumit Mishra said that both leaders will speak in detail about the life and work of Dr B R Ambedkar. He also accused the Congress party of disrespecting Dr. Ambedkar and the Constitution.
He said former Prime Ministers Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, and Rajiv Gandhi did not give Dr. Ambedkar the Bharat Ratna during their time, though Nehru and Indira awarded it to themselves.
BJP city spokesperson Ritesh Tiwari shared that the campaign began on April 13 with a cleanliness drive at statues of Dr. Ambedkar across Indore. In the evening, the statues were decorated, and lamps were lit.
On April 14, Ambedkar Jayanti, garlands were offered, and the Preamble of the Constitution was read.
During the campaign, programs were held at 340 places across the city, and respected citizens and senior BJP workers were also honored.
