Hand in matters of devotion has to be abundant such a deistic approach and an entren mindsets results in indignity to women and degradation of their status un similarly if you see the another judgment in which lordship L bench hold that there should be live streaming of important cases in that
Honorable lordship uh observed quote sunlight is the best disinfected unquote similarly Adar judgment his lordship L bench is stut down section 57 of of other act which allowed sharing of C citizen data with private entities how much it is contemporary when we hear that all data
Or some of the data or large amount of data is available on dark web this so scary then section 497 of Indian panel code was held unconstitutional because it put treated the husband as the master any provision of the law affecting individual dignity and equality of women invites the WRA of
The Constitution it is time to say that husband is not master of the wife legal sovereignity of one sex over other sex is wrong unot so these are very powerful judgments and lordship is H Commission of legal jurist Prudence English classic literature Indian anent wisdom and my request that whenever you

And confirming Deb for the Ford Nira raped case convict without further Ado let us extend a cordial Welcome to The Honorable Mr justicea Dr a Abraham Pro white Chancellor Benet University Professor Gest in School of Law Dr sha the coordinator as I the PO behind today’s function in a
Way and my De Young charge of law or in law and their mentors that is the members of The Faculty of law religion I must say I’m extremely delighted to know that the benett university especially this constitutional bra which you have constituted has been celebrated since 9 days on the Constitutional
Aspects it’s really delight and shows your mental presence perseverance and dedication see centuries back almost 2,000 years back much more one of the Greek philosophers was asked what organic document it constitute the pulse and the essential marrow of our constitutional philosoph it doesn’t need special emphasis to state that the Preamble
Serves as a Prelude or an introduction to the con Constitution and it’s a part of the Constitution and the objective set out there in contain the basic structure of the Constitution and it has been so said in never forget the Preamble encapsulates within it such an written and Unwritten principle
That act as the elevated guiding lines which are en vital for working of a healthy and flourishing constitutional democracy during the constituent assembly debates the Preamble was often referred to as the soul of the Indian constitution whereby it has been stated and quot the Preamble is the most precious part of the
Constitution it is the soul of the Constitution it’s a key to the Constitution it’s a proper arate with which one can measure the worth of the Constitution before adverting to other quintessential aspects of the Constitution as delated in the Preamble let me first allude to
The which WS at the CER of of our constitutional pror May lovingly call fathers of the Constitution and naturally so for the Preamble of the was spred with great care and deliberation so that it reflects the noble objectives of bringing in with Vitality the life blood and the spirit of Indian
Nation which at it Wasing with energy of the Constitution was that is why I deliberately used here the spirit of the Constitution by virtue of the term socialist in the Preamble a duty has been cast on each of us to strive and achieve this constitutional objective of
Socialism each one of us in this regard must endeav to abdicate the Dom ating element of perpendicular proun are in every action of ours when speaking in the context of the Constitutional aspirations we must be formly in mind the famous English saying that one should not perpendicular his or
Own own self when you use the pronoun I it SS up an expression expression expressive idea of egotism egoism I and for us as a nation in order to achieve the targeted destination of socialism we must incorporate the virtue of collective humanistic and humble fact to
The society in a different way so that we really participate in the growth of democratic socialism the next aspect is secular the secular character of the Indian constitution is the most significant con constitutional concept which runs as a common threat throughout the Indian constitutional philosophy Binding Together the unity and diversity culture
Of India the states responsibility to sustain this secular constitutional philosophy has been aply described by the observations of the Supreme Court in mob lynching p and I P National Life and the popular sentiment into policies the representatives act on behalf of the people at large and remain accountable to the
People for their activities as lawmakers therefore representative form of governance comes out as a device to bring to PO the popular way on the thought behind the passage is you can’t ignore an elected comment you must understand the inherent idea behind this passage and the idea will be
Centrally at home when you read the entire judgment the constitution of India aims to secure to it citizens social economic and political Justice it would not be out of place to state that the basic conception of democracy can only be resoled as a Priceless treasure if and only if just Justice
Remains and Reigns and rules Supreme and unjustness and inequity in the Social Democratic and political spheres are kept at way it’s very easy to say that is why long back justce called I hope you know about about the wave is entangled and obscure s through with a multitude of Shades and
Colorss The sces Irregular and broken Mone many Hues that seem to be simple are found when analyzed to be a complex and uncertain blend Justice itself which we are only to appeal to as a test as well as an ideal May mean different things to different minds and at different
Terms attempts to objectify its standards or even to describe them have never fully succeeded un I like to explain here to you you see a sense of justice when you think one may say this is Justice one message this is not Justice the other message why do you say so
Logic many things ideas can that is why the fundamental idea is justice is just when it is not in conflict with the Constitutional ideas but parameters Norms values and conventions am I clear to you okay now let me read the passage from another Judgment of the Supreme
Court of India in the concept regard to the concept of justice justice and its connotative expansive engs the liberalism of an ocean the magnanimity of the Sun the sternness of a mountain the Simplicity of a sent the austerity of a Spartan and the humility of everyone the concept of justice as to
Remain embedded in spite of adversities it should remain unshaken un terrified UNP and loyal to the RO of LA and that is why justice is called the queen of all virtues thep the inspiring preamble to our constitution chose that one of it cherished objetive assur to all it citizen the liberty of thought
Expression belief and worship it’s liberty of which infuses spirit and energy into life and make it Sparkle it’s liberty that aids in developing the growth of human mind and individuality that is why Patrick once announced maybe slightly dramatically but it is absolutely correct Give me liberty or give me death Give me liberty
IM Liberty in every sense of the word forms the most priceless asset for the human race the virtue of Liberty is entrenched in the hearts of men and women and the primary aim and objective of the Indian constitution with the Preamble as its head note is to ensure that its citizen
Liberty is attained with full force Dr BR edar we have to remember him today we are obligated in law to remember him we are also ethically obliged to keep him in our memory as students of as citizens of this country he spoke about fraternity fraternity finds place in pble he says without
Fraternity equality and Liberty would be know deeper than quotes of pain understand theity of this line and his focus on fraternity fraternity essentially means Brotherhood and common interest in a diversified country like ours it will not amount to an overstatement if it is said that paternity is an intrinsic
Value inher in our constitutional Assurance it warrants mutual respect and concern for each other’s dignity the preamble to the Constitution which our founding fathers finally settled after the Constitution was PR confirms to the ideas and aspirations of the people embodied in our magnific constitution it’s an invocation of the grand and organic
