This prestigious recognition is a testament to his enduring efforts as a champion for the marginalized and a stalwart of equality and empowerment.

His unwavering commitment to uplift the downtrodden and his visionary leadership have left an indelible mark on India's socio-political fabric. This award not only honours his remarkable contributions but also inspires us to continue his mission of creating a more just and equitable society.”


“मुझे इस बात की बहुत प्रसन्नता हो रही है कि भारत सरकार ने समाजिक न्याय के पुरोधा महान जननायक कर्पूरी ठाकुर जी को भारत रत्न से सम्मानित करने का निर्णय लिया है। उनकी जन्म-शताब्दी के अवसर पर यह निर्णय देशवासियों को गौरवान्वित करने वाला है। पिछड़ों और वंचितों के उत्थान के लिए कर्पूरी जी की अटूट प्रतिबद्धता और दूरदर्शी नेतृत्व ने भारत के सामाजिक-राजनीतिक परिदृश्य पर अमिट छाप छोड़ी है। यह भारत रत्न न केवल उनके अतुलनीय योगदान का विनम्र सम्मान है, बल्कि इससे समाज में समरसता को और बढ़ावा मिलेगा।”
