Chandigarh: Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Tuesday said that saints belong to everyone and we all belong to the saints. Their teachings and messages are not confined to any particular section of society, but serve as a source of inspiration for the entire society and humanity. In keeping with this spirit, members of the Opposition will also be included in the committee constituted for the ‘Sant Shiromani Guru Ravidas Samrasta Sankalp Abhiyan’.
The Chief Minister was speaking in the Vidhan Sabha during the discussion on the government’s resolution on the ‘Sant Shiromani Guru Ravidas Samrasta Sankalp Abhiyan’. He was responding to the issue raised by MLA B.B. Batra regarding representation of the Opposition in the committee.
The Chief Minister said that the concerned Deputy Commissioners had invited Opposition MLAs to the programmes organised across the state, but Opposition members were not seen participating in them.
The Chief Minister said that future generations must be made aware of the hardships endured by our saints and Gurus for society and humanity, as well as their sacrifices and lifelong commitment to the welfare of mankind.
The Chief Minister said that the government resolution brought before the House is dedicated to the 650th Prakash Parv of Sant Shiromani Guru Ravidas Ji Maharaj. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government is committed to honouring saints and great personalities and taking their teachings and messages to every section of society.
