Adhering to the policy of sarvjan hitaya sarvjan sukhaya, the Bahujan Samaj Party government is determined to establish a society whose basis is equality, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati said on Friday.

She was addressing a gathering after paying floral tribute to BSP founder Kanshi Ram at the Samajik Parivartan Prateek Sthal at Gomtinagar here on the occasion of his third death anniversary.

Kanshi Ram’s vision

Ms. Mayawati attributed the formation of the BSP government to the vision of Kanshi Ram, who stood for an equitable society.

The Chief Minister then paid floral tribute at the Kanshi Ram Smarak Sthal (memorial site) on Jail Road.

Earlier, she visited the Bahujan Samaj Prerna Kendra, where the leader’s ashes are kept.
