Today, when Congress leaders speak against the President, Vice President, Prime Minister, Parliament, and Judiciary, they are not just insulting these constitutional institutions but also disrespecting Dr. Ambedkar and the Constitution he framed.

The Chief Minister was addressing a delegation of the Deprived Scheduled Castes (DSC) community from across the state on Saturday at his residence, Sant Kabir Kutir. On the occasion, members of the DSC community honoured the Chief Minister with a turban and expressed gratitude for implementing categorization within reservations for the DSC community. They also invited the Chief Minister to attend the Sant Kabir Jayanti celebration to be held in Sirsa on June 11. It is pertinent to mention that Haryana government has extended special reservation to DSC category under SC quota.

The Chief Minister, calling the members of the community "warriors," said that the turban placed on his head is not just his honour but the honour of the entire community. He said that the DSC community is now receiving its rightful share and respect. In the recent announcement of approximately 3,500 government recruitments, 605 posts have been reserved for the DSC community and 604 posts for other Scheduled Castes. This is a strong step toward social justice, he said.
