Answer:
Preamble to the Constitution of India is a brief introductory statement that sets out the guiding purpose and principles of the document, and it indicates the source from which the document derives its authority, meaning, the people.[1] The hopes and aspirations of the people as well as the ideals before our nation are described in the preamble in clear words. It may be considered as the heart and soul of Constitution. The preamble can be referred to as the preface which highlights the entire Constitution. It was adopted on 26 November 1949 by the Constituent Assembly and came into effect on 26th January 1950.
The word “secular” may have been inserted into the Preamble to the Indian Constitution in 1976, but undoubtedly, the politics of secularism, in the sense of what role to allow for religion in a democracy, was one of the dominant motifs of the deliberations of the Constituent Assembly (CA) that framed the Constitution. Religious riots were taking place and Partition was imminent when the meetings of the assembly began in December 1946. Is it not ironic that when the word “secular” is not used specifically in the Constitution that was passed by them, the members of the CA demonstrated a strong commitment to secularism as an essential prerequisite for India’s democracy? However, after that founding moment, the commitment to secularism has only weakened, to the extent that we have now come to a pass where we are again having to assert, like the CA members, that far from being a Western import, secularism is necessary for the survival of India’s democracy.
Hope this helps.
