PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday hailed the Constitution of India, describing it as a "guiding light" that has "stood the test of time in every sense of the term."
He made these remarks during his monthly radio broadcast programme, "Mann Ki Baat," which focused on the Constitution as the nation prepares to celebrate its 75th year on January 26, recognised as Republic Day.
"On January 26, 2025, our Constitution is completing 75 years. It is a matter of great honour for all of us. The Constitution, handed over to us by our Constitution-makers, has stood the test of time in every sense of the term," the Prime Minister remarked.
Terming the Constitution the "guiding light" to the country, he said, "The Constitution is our guiding light, our guide. It is on account of the Constitution that I am here today, being able to talk to you."
