Business Standard
|April 15, 2025

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who inaugurated several development projects in Haryana, said that Ambedkar "wanted every poor person to live with dignity, with their heads held high, but the Congress turned the Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs) and Other Backward Classes (OBCs) into second-class citizens".
