Constitution: 'There are no words socialist and secular in the copies of the Constitution given to us', Adhir Ranjan's big claim
Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary said that the new copies of the Constitution which were given to us on September 19 do not have the words 'socialist and secular' in the preamble. We know that these words were added after an amendment in the year 1976 but if today someone gives us the Constitution and these words are not there in it then it is a matter of concern.
Congress leader in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Wednesday (September 20) claimed that the new copies of the Constitution handed over to MPs before moving into the new Parliament House did not have the words 'socialist and secular' in the preamble.
Speaking to news agency ANI, Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary said, "The new copies of the Constitution which were given to us on September 19, do not have the words 'socialist and secular' in the preamble. We took these copies in our hands and entered the new Parliament building. We know that these words were added after an amendment in the year 1976, but if today someone gives us the Constitution and these words are not there, then it is a matter of concern."
He said, "The intentions of the government are questionable. This has been done very cleverly. It is a matter of concern for me. I tried to raise this issue but I did not get a chance to raise this issue." Let us tell you that the words 'socialist' and 'secular' were added to the Preamble as part of the 42nd amendment to the Constitution in 1976 during the Emergency imposed by the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
The second day of the special session was called in the old Parliament House, which was the last day of discussion in this building. After this, further action was taken in the new Parliament House. The old Parliament will now be known as 'Samvidhan Sadan'. At the same time, the government has named the new Parliament House as 'Parliament House of India'.
Adhir Choudhary, while referring to the controversy over the G20 dinner invitation sent in the name of the 'President of India', had said that there is no difference between 'India' and 'Bharat'. Choudhary said, "This Constitution is no less for us than the Gita, the Quran, and the Bible. Article 1 says, "India, that is Bharat, shall be a Union of States...” This means that there shall be no There is no difference. It would be better if no one tries to create a rift between the two unnecessarily."
