Words Secular and social were added in the preamble of Constitution of India by 42nd Constitution Amendment Act in 1976.

- DAYA SAGAR

Recently some have professed that these additions have not been proper and may be removed. Such questions even if wrong must be addressed to satisfy the wisdom of the any citizen who may have doubt. Before taking the issue further let us in common man language take that term socialist addresses the democratic republic of India where the republic takes the duty for addressing the minimum needs of each and every citizen irrespective of the quantum of contribution one makes to state revenue (as welfare state) and the term secular refers to the Government/ Parliament of democratic republic that would rule & serve the citizens as one 'religion/ one sect/ one one sex , in brief separation of 'religion' and State in India. The Constitution of India has spirits of socialism and secularism enshrined in the spirits of Constitution of India as variety of structural elements of Articles like Art .25,26,27,28,29,30, 38(2) , 39 , 39A, 41, 45,46,47 and the two terms added in the preamble are just to make the basic enshrined spirit more vivid.
