BJP leader and former MP from Uttarakhand Tarun Vijay, who fought for the temple rights of dalits in the state, today met Ramnath Kovind and greeted him on behalf of Utatrakhand.
He said that a scholar, humble and highly erudite Ramnath ji’s elevation to the office of the President will enhance grace and glory of the high office.
Recalling the stone pelting incident last year, Tarun Vijay said that when he fought for the temple entry rights of dalits in Uttarakhand and was stoned with deadly hate, it was Ramnath Kovind who supported him and stood by his side. He will be ever grateful to him.
He said that Kovind’s nomination has strengthened the morale of all nationalists specially dalits who feel their struggle’s mirror image in his person. Tarun Vijay said that the nation will always be grateful to PM Narendra Modi and Party president Amit Shah for nominating Kovind for the President’s post.
There couldn’t have been a better choice, he added.
