The statement provided in the question describes the vision of an inclusive and harmonious India. It emphasizes the empowerment of the poorest, the absence of class distinctions, and the coexistence of communities in perfect harmony.

Option 1: Baba Saheb Ambedkar - Although Baba Saheb Ambedkar played a significant role in fighting for the rights of India`s oppressed and disadvantaged sections, the statement does not align with his specific views or goals. His focus was more on the eradication of social inequalities, particularly the upliftment of the Dalit community.

Option 2: Mahatma Gandhi - This is the correct answer. Mahatma Gandhi`s philosophy of non-violence, social justice, and unity perfectly aligns with the statement. Throughout his life, Gandhi advocated for the rights and well-being of all Indians, especially the marginalized and impoverished sections. He believed in an India where everyone had an equal voice and where harmony prevailed among different communities.

Option 3: Gurudev Tagore - While Gurudev Tagore was a renowned poet, philosopher, and social reformer, his views were more focused on cultural and intellectual aspects. His vision for India highlighted the importance of education, cultural revival, and connecting with nature, rather than addressing socioeconomic inequalities.
