"Sant Kabir was a great saint, a mystic poet, and always emphasised on simplicity, humility, and oneness. He strongly opposed the hypocrisy and superstitions spreading in society. He plays with words like an artist who mixes paint to create new colours. This is the reason that even after 650 years, Kabir's Dohe (two-liners) retains its charm and relevance even today", Mr. Baghel was addressing the Sant Samagam organised at Sadguru Kabir Ashram in Selud village of Patan development block under Durg district on Sunday. He announced the construction of a dome structure in Sadguru Kabir Ashram.

The Chief Minister stated that Sadhguru Kabir's couplets reflect his vision and love for society. He was the 'true social reformer' who devoted his life to demolishing the walls of caste and preaching social brotherhood. He preached against the exploitation of the poor in the name of religion and law by the people in power. He was a saint not bound to any sect or community but to all of society. The Chief Minister further stated that the Chhattisgarh government is also working in the fields of education, health, and culture by following the path shown by these great saints. The Chief Minister offered flowers to Sadguru Kabir's statue and paid his obeisance. Sahitya Vedantacharya Sukrit Saheb Shastri, Sanchalak Chhote Mahant Parmeshwar Das Saheb, President Sant Bhupat Saheb, District Cooperative Central Bank President Mr. Rajendra Sahu, District Panchayat Vice President Mr. Ashok Sahu, President of C.G.
