Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday greeted the nation on the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the Constitution. While the government has planned year-long events to celebrate the anniversary of the Constitution's adoption, President Droupadi Murmu led the celebrations at the Central Hall of the old Parliament complex on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, a popular social media handle on X, Modi Archive shared details of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s espousal of the ideals of Baba Saheb Ambedkar as well as the principles enshrined in our Constitution, since his early days in public life.
The Modi Archive handle posted on X, "On the historic completion of 75 years of Constitution, here's an extraordinary journey of reverence, dedication, and action that started decades ago and continues to this very day."
"This journey belongs to Narendra Modi, who has devoted his public life to promoting the vision enshrined in our Constitution, pushing towards a stronger and more inclusive India," it added.
It also mentions that "from the earliest days of his public life, Narendra Modi tried to bring Babasaheb's ideals into the heart of national consciousness."
Prime Minister has often spoken at length, from multiple forums, about Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar's vision of social justice, equality and empowerment, while underlining the importance of taking forward the legacy of the principal architect of the Constitution.
Interestingly, the Constitution was passed by the Constituent Assembly in the Central Hall of Parliament on November 26, 1949 and came into effect on January 26, 1950. The day was actually observed as Law Day until Modi government decided to rename it as Samvidhaan Diwas or Constitution Day in 2015.
The year-long celebrations of the 75th anniversary of the day of adoption of the Constitution had started on Tuesday morning with an address by President Droupadi Murmu to a joint sitting of Parliamentarians. The purpose of this celebration is to instil the values of the Constitution in citizens and also to give importance to monumental work done by the Constituent Assembly.
