BJP president J P Nadda on Sunday said India, as the "mother of democracy" and a republic, represents the world, as he called for strengthening the country's constitutional values.
Speaking at a Republic-Day event held at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) headquarters here, Nadda said under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, the vision of "Viksit Bharat" (developed India) has become a medium to uplift most of the downtrodden people in the society, embodying the spirit of "Antyodaya", according to a statement issued by the party.
