Justice and liberty are enduring values: Rahul

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday said the Constitution is every Indian’s greatest weapon and shield, as his party asserted that its resolve to protect the Constitution is as “strong as a rock.”

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, who unfurled the national flag on India’s 77th Republic Day, said the need of the hour is to stand firm in defending the principles and spirit of our Constitution.

“Justice, liberty, equality, and fraternity are the enduring values bequeathed to us by our founding fathers, and it is our sacred duty to protect them. We must be prepared to make every necessary sacrifice to safeguard the Constitution,” Kharge said in a social media post in Hindi. “This will be our true tribute to the sacrifices of our ancestors,” he said. “Once again, I extend my heartfelt greetings to all of you on this glorious occasion of Republic Day.” Rahul Gandhi also extended greetings to all citizens on Republic Day.
