On Saturday, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari strongly criticized caste politics. He explained that a person’s true greatness comes from their qualities, not their caste, religion, or gender. Speaking at a graduation ceremony for the Central India Group of Institutions in Nagpur, Gadkari said he will not support caste politics, even if it costs him votes in elections.

He gave an example of Dr. Abdul Kalam, who became a world-famous nuclear scientist through his hard work, not because of his background. Gadkari stated, “We will not judge anyone based on caste, religion, language, or gender.”

He mentioned that some of his friends have warned him that his views on caste might hurt his chances in elections. In response, he said, “I will stick to my beliefs, whether or not I win votes. Does anyone really get hurt if they lose elections?”

Nitin Gadkari Praises IPS Officer’s Work on Health Issues

Gadkari also praised IPS officer Sandeep Tamgadge for his efforts in fighting sickle cell disease and thalassemia, which affect many people in the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra. He highlighted the important work of the Tamgadge Trust in providing healthcare and screenings for underprivileged communities.

The trust, named after Sandeep’s late father, Madhukarrao Tamgadge, focuses on helping marginalized groups. With Sandeep as the Additional Director General of Police in Nagaland, the trust is currently leading a large screening program for sickle cell disease in partnership with government bodies.
