New Delhi, Dec 13 (UNI) Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday said there has always been an attempt by a particular party to hijack the work of Constitution making.
In an apparent attack on the Congress party the Defence Minister said, “Today I want to make it clear, that our Constitution is not the gift of a single party”.
Initiating the discussion on the ‘Glorious Journey of 75 Years of The Constitution of India’ in Lok Sabha, Rajnath said, “The Constitution of India was made by the people of India, in accordance with the values of the country.”
Highlighting the approach of NDA government, Singh said, “Our government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is working with the spirit of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas, and in accordance with the Dharma written in the Constitution of India”.
Nothing that the Constitution paves the way for nation building by touching all aspects of social, economic, political and cultural life, the Minister said, “Our Constitution is progressive, inclusive, transformative… This is our country where a person born in a poor family can also become the Prime Minister of the country”.
Congratulating the countrymen on completing 75 years of adoption of the constitution, the Defence Minister said, “We the people of India adopted the Constitution on 26 November 1949.
I heartily congratulate this House and all the citizens of the country on the occasion of completion of 75 years of adoption of the Constitution”
