Guru Ravidas was a 15th century saint whose works had a strong influence on the Bhakti movement. He is widely respect across all parts of India today.

The issue of social harmony and service towards the downtrodden are very close to Shri Modi’s heart. He has authored a book, ‘Samajik Samarasta’ which contains an assortment of Shri Modi’s speeches and essays on social harmony. It is an endeavor to present the suffering of the marginalized and the need to put an end to the same.

In the recently presented Gujarat Budget 2013-2014, a revolutionary step was announced by the Gujarat Government for the training of Safai Kamdars in Karma-Kand (rituals) at reputed institutions. A Budget of Rs. 1838 crore has been allotted for the welfare of the Scheduled Caste and developing castes. This includes provisions for Samras Hostels, monetary scholarships for students of the Scheduled Castes, providing bicycles, uniforms among other things.

In the last decade, the Gujarat Government has taken several such progressive steps to put an end to any kind of inequality on caste or creed. It is the vision of Shri Narendra Modi to see a Gujarat where there is inclusive development, where there is a smile of each and every person residing in Gujarat!
