India’s Constitution lauded as world’s greatest at Kadapa conference

Kadapa – Andhra Pradesh: A United Democracy Conference highlights the enduring legacy and principles of the Indian Constitution, marking 75 years since its adoption. Leaders emphasize preserving its spirit and implementing its ideals effectively.

Constitution celebrated as the best in the world

Dr. Narreddy Tulasi Reddy, former Rajya Sabha Member and Chief Spokesperson of the Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee, alongside Sangati Manohar, Founder and National President of the Mahajana Rajyam Party, declared the Indian Constitution as unparalleled globally. “There is no other constitution superior to ours,” they stated at the United Democracy Conference held at the Press Club in Kadapa on Tuesday.

The event, organized by the Committee for the Protection of Constitutional Rights under the chairmanship of National Coordinator Sangati Manohar, marked the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the Indian Constitution on November 26, 1949.

Vision of Ambedkar and spirit of Constitution

Speakers praised Dr. B R Ambedkar, the architect of the Indian Constitution, for his monumental contributions. “The nation will never forget the sacrifices, struggles, and achievements of Dr. Ambedkar, a world-renowned intellectual,” said Sangati Manohar.

Leaders called for the spirit of the Constitution to be upheld. “The greatness of the Indian Constitution lies in its principles of justice, liberty, equality, and fraternity. Its true strength depends on those who implement it,” emphasized Tulasi Reddy.
