Speaking at the programme, Siddaramaiah said that political democracy is to succeed only when economic social democracy is available to all. Today they are breaking the society in the name of unity. Be aware of this and get rid of the disturbing forces that strike the society. Strangers are opponents of pluralistic, democratic unity. There are many religions and caste cultures in our country. For this unity should be seen in diversity. It has been said in the constitution that no caste or language is superior or inferior. After independence, we have been following this strictly. Parliamentary system was there during Buddha, Basava and Ambedkar period. Basavanna brought parliamentary system through Anubhava Mandapam.

‘No religion is superior or inferior. There was a parliamentary system during the time of Buddha-Basava. Experience is enough to see the democratic system in our state and country. After independence we made constitution. Economic and social democracy should be available to all. As long as there is discrimination, there is no political equality. The Preamble of the Constitution should be understood, the job is to make it understood by the youth. An equal society can be built by those who know the purpose of the constitution. It is important to build an equal society, it should become a garden of peace for all races. There should be no political, economic, social discrimination. Ambedkar emphasized this, one vote for all. There is a single vote for the President and the Prime Minister. Equality is impossible until inequality is eliminated. We are on the path to equality. We have worked to give justice to the poor of all religions and castes.’ He said that we have worked to empower everyone through 5 guarantee schemes.
