Sonia Gandhi pays homage to great leaders who played crucial roles in the national building


Congress President Sonia Gandhi while speaking on the occasion to commemorate the 60th anniversary of India's first Parliamentary session on Sunday, paid tributes to the great national leaders who had played important roles in the national building and the freedom movement.
Remembering Mahatma Gandhi 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”.
Sonia Gandhi also remembered Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India. “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,” said the Congress President.
Sonia Gandhi also paid tribute to Dr BR Ambedkar. Sonia Gandhi commented,”I pay homage to Dr. BR Ambedkar who accomplished an immensely difficult task to create the constitutional frame on which our democracy stands”.
