Unveiling of giant statues of Bharat Ratna Dr B R Ambedkar in Khammam and Madhira towns, among a host of charitable activities in different parts of the erstwhile composite Khammam district marked the 130th birth anniversary celebrations of the principal architect of the Indian Constitution on Wednesday.
A 14-feet-tall imposing bronze statue of Dr Ambedkar was unveiled by Transport Minister Puvvada Ajay Kumar at the ZP Centre, now renamed as Ambedkar Centre, in Khammam.
The giant new statue of Dr Ambedkar was installed, replacing the old one, as a mark of tribute to the visionary leader, eminent jurist, scholar, economist and social reformer.
