Sonia Gandhi at 60th anniversary of Parliament pays homage to the great national leaders


Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi spoke on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of India's first Parliamentary session on Sunday and paid homage to our great national leaders like Mahatma Gandhiji, Jawahar Lal Nehru and Dr BR Ambedkar.
Sonia Gandhi said “I pay my deepest tribute to the Mahatma. He was no longer living when this House first met, yet he was the guiding light that made it all possible. Leading a life of spartan simplicity he dedicated himself to the last and the least. He taught us the power of love and compassion”.
“I pay homage to Jawaharlal Nehru, his comrades-in-arms and political colleagues too numerous to mention, whose profound belief and single-minded determination gave spirit and substance to the idea, the functioning and the nurturing of our Parliament through its formative stages. I pay homage to Dr. BR Ambedkar who accomplished an immensely difficult task to create the constitutional frame on which our democracy stands”.
She continued remembering the contribution of various MPs and said “ pay tribute to the peerless giants, the legendary figures, who have graced our Parliament. They built great parliamentary traditions and endowed the nation with vision and direction”. “They created new rights and remedies for all our citizens and have especially protected the excluded and the marginalized,” Sonia Gandhi added.
