Recalling the work she had done for various sections of the society, family and friends of the Ramjata described her as an iconic personality whose contribution to the uplift of the underprivileged would always remain etched in memory.

Many recalled her immense contribution to the welfare of refugee girls following the tragic partition of the country, saying it was her charisma and humanitarian approach that had led then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to entrust her with this important and delicate task.Azad, leader of the opposition in the Rajya Sabha, described the Rajmata as a multi-faceted personality, who led an active political life as a Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha member. Her exemplary contribution to the empowerment of women and in providing succour to the poverty-stricken sections of the society was a source of inspiration to leaders of the modern times, he said.As a person who loved people, Rajmata gave more importance to public concerns than to material gains, said Azad, who also conveyed to Captain Amarinder and his family the condolences of Congress president Sonia Gandhi and vice president Rahul Gandhi.While paying tributes to Rajmata, Sukhbir Badal said she was a noble soul, and recalled her missionary zeal in serving every section of the society, especially the poorest of the poor, with firm commitment, devotion and dedication.Khaira said the loss of a mother was an irreplaceable loss as no other human being could replace this relationship.Union Minister of State and Punjab BJP chief, Vijay Sampla, while conveying the condolences of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party chief Amit Shah, said the Rajmata was a pious soul and a great social reformer, who was far ahead of her time. The lady invoked and inspired rich values in public life, he added.SGPC chief Prof Kirpal Singh Badungar paid rich homage to the Rajmata, describing her as an ideal mother and a great personality who spend her entire life in the welfare of the people. He recalled her outstanding efforts to ensure the safe and secure rehabilitation of the families that migrated from Pakistan.
