Constitution is a guide to our present and future, says Modi

Hindustan Times  

NEW DELHI Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses at the 75th Constitution Day program, at Supreme Court, in New Delhi on Tuesday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday emphasised that the spirit of “Nation First” will ensure the enduring relevance of India’s Constitution for centuries, as he highlighted the extension of the Constitution to Jammu and Kashmir—where Constitution Day was celebrated for the first time this year—and asserted India’s firm resolve to respond decisively to threats from terror organisations. Addressing a distinguished gathering that included Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna, senior Supreme Court judges -- justices Bhushan R Gavai and Surya Kant, attorney general R Venkataramani and other legal luminaries, Modi underlined the Constitution’s role in guiding India through difficult times, from the Emergency to the complex sociopolitical transformations over 75 years. Highlighting the flexibility and foresight embedded in the Constitution, Modi said that the makers of the Constitution understood that India’s dreams and aspirations would evolve over time, adding that the document serves not just as a record of laws but as a “living, continuously flowing stream” that adapts to the nation’s changing needs. Echoing this sentiment, Modi said: “The spirit of ‘Nation First’ will keep the Constitution alive for centuries.” In a reflective tone, PM Modi also acknowledged the limits set by the Constitution on his authority.
