It was a privilege to pay floral tribute to Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedakar, the architect of our Constitution. The Preamble, Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles of State Policy form the core of human rights & dignity to all. ‘We the People’ are at the centre of Constitution.

Thank you Dr. J R Bhatt for presenting a copy of the well researched Policy Brief titled ‘Why does India still need coal?’, authored by him and published by the Vivekanand International Foundation. This is about putting India’s use of coal in the right context. An excellent read.
