New Delhi, Nov. 27 -- Hailing the Constitution as a sacred document that has guided the nation's progress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said every action of "ours should strengthen it and further national goals and interests". Modi said the power of the Constitution enabled a "person like me, coming from a humble and economically disadvantaged family, to serve as the Head of the Government continuously for over 24 years." In a letter to the nation on the occasion of Samvidhan Diwas (Constitution Day), Modi 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." Modi accused the Opposition of not giving the Constitution full respect. "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 Prime Minister said his government organised a Samvidhan Gaurav Yatra in Gujarat to show collective gratitude and commitment to the document. He called the Samvidhan Divas a day of immense pride for every Indian. FULL STORY ON P4...
