India, April 22 -- The Constitution is for the people, the elected representatives are its repositories and the ultimate masters as to what its content will be, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar said on Tuesday, underlining that constitutional offices are not "ornamental".

"There is no visualisation in the Constitution of any authority above Parliament... Parliament is supreme, and that being the situation, it is as supreme as every individual in the country. Part of 'We the People' [preamble] is an atom in democracy...that atom has atomic power. That atomic power is reflected during elections...that is why we are a democratic nation," he said at 'Kartavyam', an event at the University of Delhi commemorating the Constitution's 75 years.
