The Vice President of India Shri M. Hamid Ansari has said that Shri B.D. Jatti?s commitment to public service was based on his deep sense of spirituality. He was the founder President of the ?Basava Samithi?, a socio-religious organization, which has been in the forefront in propagating the philosophy, life and teachings of the 12th century saint, philosopher and social reformer, Basaveshwara. Addressing after releasing the Ten volumes of translations of ?Vachanas? of Basaveshwara and also commemorating the Birth Centenary of Late Shri B.D. Jatti, former Vice President of India at a function in Bangalore today, he said that Basava fought against the injustice and inequality in society, especially the inhuman caste system. He spread social awareness and preached equality of all human beings and championed the eradication of untouchability. His teachings were based on rational, progressive social thoughts. His universal message of unity of mankind, equality, brotherhood, and compassion, which transcends religious boundaries, is not only contemporary but most relevant for building a modern, progressive society in the 21st century. ?He said that the first phase of Vachanas translated into Hindi, Urdu, English, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Punjabi, Bengali and Sanskrit, including Kannada is a commendable initiative as this common heritage of mankind is being made available to a much wider audience, especially on a day when we remember Shri Jatti who remained a true believer and devotee of Basava in thought and action.
