Union minister and former Haryana chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar speaking on the occasion of Samvidhan Gaurav Samaroh and Rashtriya Yuva Diwas at the Maharshi Dayanand University in Rohtak on Sunday. Speaking at the Maharshi Dayanand University in Rohtak on the “Samvidhan Gaurav Samaroh and Rashtriya Yuva Diwas”, Khattar said, “BR Ambedkar and Sardar Vallabhbhai deserved to be Prime Minister.” “ We can give more credit to Ambedkar than the governments after independence as he dreamed of how to make the country efficient and better. Reacting to Khattar’s remarks on Nehru, former Haryana CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda said, “The person, who became the chief minister accidentally, will make statements like this only.” “During Khattar’s regime in Haryana, the state was pushed into poverty, unemployment, drug menace and poor law and order situation, and what else can we expect from him?,” Hooda said.
