Government whip and Koduru MLA K Srinivasulu, SVU vice-chancellor Prof K Raja Reddy, Rector Prof V Srikanth Reddy and others took part in the programme.
The speakers recalled the contributions of Ambedkar to Indian Constitution due to which several people from the downtrodden sections have achieved several political positions. AP Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has been working with the true spirit of his ideology and giving more importance to the education sector, they claimed. By providing the better amenities at government schools, 16 lakh students have joined these schools from private schools, they added.
