Former Union Minister and Vice Chairman Gandhi Smriti and Darshan Samiti Vijay Goel on Monday led a grand Samvidhan Samman Yatra on the eve of the 76th Constitution Day on Sunday from Red Fort, before culminating at Fatehpuri Masjid.
The highlight of the Yatra was an 8-foot replica of the Constitution, which was placed on a grand horse-drawn carriage. Goel also paid respect to the Constitution during this event by offering flowers while large number of people joined him.
Sharing his thoughts on this occasion, Goel emphasized that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has rightly said that it is our duty to protect the Constitution. “The Constitution grants everyone the right to equality, ensuring justice and fairness for all. It is a testament to India’s strength signifying equality amidst diversity,” he stated.
The BJP leader said, “The Constitution is the cornerstone of our democracy and the unifying thread of our nation. This Yatra is a tribute to the vision of the founding fathers of our Constitution and a reminder of the values of justice, equality, liberty, and fraternity enshrined in the Preamble.”
Goel said that this Samvidhan Samman Yatra in this same spirit aims to rekindle the constitutional values among citizens and encourage dialogue on its relevance in modern India.
