 Happy Republic Day 2023

I wish you all a very happy Republic day. As we celebrate the Republic Day with pride, gratitude and happiness, let’s thank the Indian army, air force and navy for safeguarding our country from foreign intrusions.

Seventy four years ago, on the 26th of January, we had enforced a constitution which defines the duties and responsibilities of all public servants ranging from the president to the municipal councilor. Did we miss something to mention in this constitution?

The legislative, judiciary and executive institutions which govern the country comprise of less than 5% of our population. The 450 articles of the constitution define the roles and responsibilities of only 5% of the population. Why is there no mention about the duties of the remaining 95%? Don’t we, as common public have a duty to perform to our family, to the society and to the country? 

A teenager in this country is aware of the duties of the president of India. But does he know his responsibilities as a citizen of India?

Have you heard about Upanishads? These manuscripts written between 800BCE to 500BCE describe the social responsibility of each and every individual. The content of these may be totally irrelevant to the current society. But we definitely need something like this. 

I am an Indian. I should represent India. I am not just a ballot paper. My sincere request to all the intellectuals in this country: please append an article to the constitution, defining the roles and responsibilities of each citizen of this country. 

Happy republic day.
