In his address, he said, “Babu Jagjivanram was one among the pioneers of modern India. He was the person who was appreciated by Mahatma Gandhiji. It is a disaster to identify any leader or freedom fighter by his or her caste. Babu Jagjivanram was a great organizer, reformer, and political stalwart. His thoughts are guidance for all of us. People who come from the exploited class will have humanity, service-mindedness and thoughts of leading the society and Babu Jagjivanram was an example for it,” he added.
