New Delhi, Nov. 27 -- Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday hailed the Constitution as a "sacred document" that guided the country's progress and said every action should strengthen the document and further national goals and interests. He also said it was the Constitution that had given several others, like him, the "power to dream and the strength to work towards it". In a letter to the nation on the occasion of Samvidhan Diwas or Constitution Day, the PM said it is our responsibility to fulfil the dreams envisioned by the framers of our Constitution. "When we work with this sense of duty, our nation's social and economic progress will multiply manifold." he wrote. Modi said it was the power of the Constitution that enabled a person like him, coming from a humble and economically disadvantaged family, to serve as the head of the government continuously for over 24 years. "I still remember the moments in 2014, when I came to Parliament for the first time and bowed, touching the steps of the greatest temple of democracy," he said. Modi said in 2019, after the election results, he also genuflected to the Constitution as a mark of reverence when he entered the Central Hall of the Samvidhan Sadan where a copy is kept. Accusing the Opposition of not according full respect to the Constitution, Modi said, "My mind goes back to the year 2010. This was when the Constitution of India completed 60 years. Sadly, the occasion did not receive the attention it deserved at a national level." The Samvidhan Divas is a day of immense pride for every Indian as it was on November 26 that the Constituent Assembly adopted the Constitution of India, Modi said. The Samvidhan Divas was special for many reasons as the country was also celebrating the 350th martyrdom anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur, he added....
