Reservation for SC, ST is a right nobody can take away: PM

March 21, 2016

New Delhi, Mar 21: Reservation for the Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribes and the marginalised in the country will remain untouched, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said when he delivered the Ambedkar Memorial Lecture after he laid the foundation stone for a state-of-the-art memorial for the Dalits' rights crusader in New Delhi.

The memorial will house Amedbakar's life’s works.

Highlights

Babasaheb was the voice of the marginalised. He is a Vishwa Manav. Only talking about him with respect to India is injustice to him: PM

The way Sardar Patel worked for Political unification, Baba Saheb Ambedkar worked for social unification: PM Modi

Few people know about the reason why Dr. Ambedkar had to resign from ministry? This part of history is either forgotten or diluted: PM

When issue of equal rights to women came up, Babasaheb was clear that if women don't get equal rights I cant be a part of the ministry: PM

Baba Saheb Ambedkar was as iconic as Martin Luther King who fought for the oppressed: PM Modi

Baba Saheb was messiah of all labourers, he was the architect of foundation labour laws: PM Modi

There is a bill oB waterways in Parliament but let me tell you this vision is of Dr. Ambedkar. He believed in India's maritime strength: PM

Baba Saheb Ambedkar was as iconic as Martin Luther King who fought for the oppressed: PM Modi

Baba Saheb was messiah of all labourers; he was the architect of foundation labour laws: PM Modi

When Vajpayee ji became PM, sections started saying reservation will go. He was PM for two terms nothing of that sort happened. Nothing has ever happened to the reservation for Dalits, tribals, where we are in power but still this lies is spread to mislead. This is a right that nobody can snatch: PM speaks on reservations for SC, ST and marginalised communities: Modi

I have got an opportunity to fulfil Baba Saheb's dream. He left us in 1956. Today, after 60 years, a memorial is being set up: PM Modi

60 years have passed! I don't know how we can explain this, but we have had to wait for 60 years for this: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday held talks with Jordan’s King Abdullah II in Amman, during which the two leaders discussed ways to further strengthen bilateral relations, with the Prime Minister outlining an eight-point vision covering key areas of cooperation.

Describing the meeting as “productive”, PM Modi said he shared a roadmap focused on trade and economy, fertilisers and agriculture, information technology, healthcare, infrastructure, critical and strategic minerals, civil nuclear cooperation, and people-to-people ties.

In a post on social media platform X, the Prime Minister praised King Abdullah II’s personal commitment to advancing India–Jordan relations, particularly as both countries mark the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties this year.

“Held productive discussions with His Majesty King Abdullah II in Amman. His personal commitment towards vibrant India-Jordan relations is noteworthy. This year, we are celebrating the 75th anniversary of our bilateral diplomatic relations,” PM Modi said.

The meeting took place at the Al Husseiniya Palace, where the two leaders also exchanged views on regional and global issues of mutual interest. According to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), both sides agreed to further deepen cooperation in areas including trade and investment, defence and security, counter-terrorism and de-radicalisation, fertilisers and agriculture, infrastructure, renewable energy, tourism, and heritage.

The MEA said both leaders reaffirmed their united stand against terrorism.

PM Modi arrived in Amman earlier on Monday and was received by Jordanian Prime Minister Jafar Hassan, who accorded him a formal welcome. Following the talks, King Abdullah II hosted a banquet dinner in honour of the Prime Minister, reflecting the warmth of bilateral ties.

Jordan is the first leg of PM Modi’s three-nation tour. From Amman, the Prime Minister will travel to Ethiopia at the invitation of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali, marking his first official visit to the African nation. The tour will conclude with a visit to Oman.
