No current plan to drop ‘socialism', ‘secularism' from Preamble: Law Minister Arjun Meghwal
The Union government has clarified that it has 'no current plan or intention' to reconsider or remove the words 'socialism' and 'secularism' from the Preamble of the Constitution Responding to a question in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday, Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal said that while discussions or debates may be taking place in certain public or political circles, the government has neither announced any formal proposal nor initiated any legal or constitutional process to alter the Preamble. 'The government's official stand is that there is no current plan or intention to reconsider or remove the words 'socialism' and 'secularism' from the Preamble of the Constitution,' Meghwal said in a written reply. Meghwal said that any amendment to the Preamble would require extensive deliberation and broad consensus, which, at present, is not under consideration. The Law Minister also noted that in November 2024, the Supreme Court dismissed petitions challenging the 1976 amendment that added the two words. The court upheld Parliament's power to amend the Constitution, including the Preamble, and clarified that in the Indian context, 'socialism' refers to a welfare state and does not hinder private enterprise, while 'secularism' is an essential part of the Constitution's basic structure. Meghwal said while certain groups may be advocating a review of the added terms, such opinions do not reflect the government's official position. 'Such activities may generate public discourse, but they do not indicate any official action or policy direction,' he said. Last month, former Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar stirred controversy when he described the inclusion of the words 'socialist' and 'secular' in the Preamble as a 'festering wound.' His remarks lent weight to RSS General Secretary Dattatreya Hosabale's call for a national debate on whether these terms should continue to define India's foundational values. Dhankhar had asserted that the Preamble is 'sacrosanct and not changeable,' calling the insertion of the words during the Emergency 'a sacrilege to the spirit of Sanatan.' (With inputs from PTI )

Insistence on Marathi natural, but also respect Indian languages: Fadnavis
New Delhi, Amid a language war in Maharashtra, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis asserted on Thursday that language cannot be a means of discord and a Marathi person can never be narrow-minded on such issues. Insistence on Marathi natural, but also respect Indian languages: Fadnavis Addressing a function at the Jawaharlal Nehru University here, Fadnavis said his government's policy has been Marathi along with other Indian languages, even as parts of Mumbai were rocked by violent protests against the "imposition of Hindi" in Maharashtra. "Language is a means of communication, but never of discord. Mother tongue is important. Every Marathi person is proud of the Marathi language. Insistence on Marathi is natural and justified, but we should also respect other Indian languages," he said. Fadnavis was speaking at a function to inaugurate the Kusumagraj Special Centre for Marathi Language, Literature and Culture and the Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Special Centre for Security and Strategic Studies at the JNU. "The debate is not Marathi versus Hindi. There is no alternative to Marathi. A Marathi person has to accept Marathi. But our policy is Marathi along with other Indian languages. We should learn Marathi and also know other languages," he said. "I say time and again, a Marathi person can never be narrow-minded. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj never taught us to be narrow-minded. Sant Dyaneshwar prayed for the welfare of the entire world and not just his followers," the chief minister added. Fadnavis said a statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji will also be installed at the JNU campus and Vice Chancellor Santishree Dhulipudi Pandit has agreed to a proposal of his government in this regard. The Maharashtra government's decision to introduce a three-language formula in primary schools led to protests by Raj Thackeray's Maharashtra Navnirman Sena and Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena over the "imposition of Hindi". The state government rolled back its decision, but the issue united the estranged Thackeray cousins, who claimed to have joined hands for the cause of Marathi. Earlier, Fadnavis faced protests on the JNU campus from a group of Students' Federation of India activists. The Kusumagraj Special Centre will focus on Marathi language, literature and cultural traditions and is named after the iconic Marathi poet and Jnanpith awardee. It will offer postgraduate and certificate-level programmes to promote multilingualism and cultural understanding. The Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Special Centre for Security and Strategic Studies will explore indigenous strategic traditions based on the Maratha empire. The centre is envisioned to become a hub for military history, strategy and future policy development rooted in India's past.

Watch: 1,000 years of Rajendra Chola-I's Gangetic Expedition
The heart of Tamil Nadu beats with memory and pride this week, as it marks 1,000 years since one of the greatest military expeditions in Indian history — when the legendary Chola emperor Rajendra Chola I marched triumphantly to the Gangetic plains, carrying Tamil valour across northern India and into the annals of world history. The Government of India and the Tamil Nadu Government are both commemorating this millenary moment in different ways — one focusing on spiritual and philosophical heritage, the other on restoration and public history. This is more than a festival. It's a chance to reflect — on who we were, and who we continue to be. What's this historic event all about? Script & Presentation: D. Suresh Kumar Videography: Shiva Raj S Production: Shibu Narayan
