The people accepted her apology and voted her and the Congress back to power with a thumping majority in 1980.
Is there no other association of the Congress in the making of the Constitution and the strengthening of the Constitution? There is, and that inspiring story is rarely told.

Because a nation goes through vicissitudes; because a nation faces new threats and opportunities; and because a Constitution is interpreted and re-interpreted by judges who hear the case. The Constitution is a living document that has to be adapted to the changing life of a nation.
