Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar on December 26 said he is pained by attempts to "demean" constitutional institutions and added people doing so should heed BR Ambedkar, the architect of the Constitution.
Speaking at the convocation of Maharshi Dayanand University in Haryana's Rohtak, he added that the corridors of power which were "infested" with brokers 10 or 15 years back have now been "sanitised".
Asking the students to take inspiration from Ambedkar's life, Mr. Dhankhar noted, "This is very important because we find, some of us, a very small number, who are not subscribing to this."
