CELEBRATING CONSTITUTION! – PROTECTING CIVIL LIBERTIES! Visioning an Equal and Inclusive Republic

About The Event

Our Constitution declares India to be a sovereign, democratic republic, socialist, secular and promises justice, equality, integrity and liberty to all its citizens. But what we witness everyday is a gross violation of the Fundamental Rights of women and the marginalised citizens’, such as the Right to Equality, Right to Life, and Right to Freedom of Expression without fear or threat. We realize that as a country we are going through very difficult and turbulent times. We as responsible citizens need to come together and pledge to demand and strengthen our national unity, harmony, peace, gender justice, equality in the private and public sphere; unity against divisive republic; and free from all forms of gender violence and violation of rights. We need to demand autonomy of national justice systems and institutions and adherence to our fundamental Rights. We need to express our solidarity with larger people’s movements, especially the ones from the most marginalised sections of the society. We need to push ourselves out of our comfort zones physically and intellectually and deepen our understanding of various kinds of oppression and exploitation as against the Fundamental Rights of our Constitution. We need to come together to celebrate Our Constitution and commit to resistance and solidarity.
