Paying rich tributes to former Deputy Prime Minister Babu Jagjivan Ram, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar hailed him as a great leader who dedicated his entire life to the cause of social justice. Speaking after garlanding the statue of Babu Jagjivan Ram on the occasion of his 119th birth anniversary in Karimnagar on Sunday, Mr. Sanjay said: “Jagjivan Ram devoted his life to the upliftment of the oppressed and marginalised.” “He lived by three core ideals — to overcome hardships, to stand up for weaker sections of society, and to treat service to the nation as the highest duty. He remained committed to these principles throughout his life,” Mr. Sanjay noted.
