 Evaluating India’s Constitutional Journey

  • The 75th anniversary of India’s Constitution prompts reflection on its foundational values.

  • Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s 1949 address highlighted the challenges ahead, urging citizens to prioritize the country over personal beliefs.

  • The Constitution’s journey must be reassessed to guide India’s future and safeguard its core values.

Federalism and Constitutional Issues

  • Recent debates focus on India’s federal structure, with tensions between State governments, Governors, and Parliament.

  • Issues like simultaneous elections, regional language equality, and fiscal federalism remain contentious.

  • Although India follows a federal framework, the word "federal" is not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution.

  • The Constitution’s basic structure includes federalism, as confirmed by key Supreme Court rulings.

Social Democracy and Inequality

  • Questions remain about whether India has matured into a true social democracy based on liberty, equality, and fraternity.

  • Critics argue the country has become a police state, with laws like sedition and anti-terror statutes challenging democratic freedoms.

  • Dr. Ambedkar emphasized addressing social and economic inequalities to preserve democracy, but caste-based discrimination and inequality still persist.

  • While progress is ongoing, the Constitution’s goals are still far from fully realized.

The Need for Constitutional Guardians

  • Calls to replace the Constitution with an "Indic" document based on Hindu dharma are seen as disrespectful to the vision of the Constituent Assembly.

  • India must defend its democratic principles and preserve the Constitution as it is.

  • Clear-headed guidance is needed from constitutional guardians—judges, politicians, bureaucrats, activists, and citizens—to protect and uphold the Constitution’s promise.
