what is preamble explain it importants
Answers
Answer:
A preamble is an introductory and expressionary statement in a document that explains the document's purpose and underlying philosophy. When applied to the opening paragraphs of a statute, it may recite historical facts pertinent to the subject of the statute. It is distinct from the long title or enacting formula of a law.
Explanation:
The preamble of a Constitution sets out the main objectives which the legislature seeks to secure for the people. It expresses what the legislature has dreamt or thought to achieve. It embodies the ideals which the framers of the Constitution wanted for the general purpose of the people in their best interests.
The Preamble of Indian Constitution declares:
“We, the People of India, having solemnly resolved to constitute India into a Sovereign, Socialist, and Secular. Democratic Republic and to secure to all its citizens:
Justice, social, economic and political;
Liberty, of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;
Equality of status and of opportunity; and to promote among them all;
Fraternity, assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of the nation.
In our Constituent Assembly this twenty-sixth day of November, 1949 do hereby Adopt, Enact and Give to ourselves this Constitution.”
The Preamble of Constitution serves the following purposes as the matters of its importance:
(1) It indicates the source from which the Constitution comes into existence, Le. The people of India.
(2) It contains the enacting clause which brings into force the Constitution.
(3) It declares the rights and freedoms which the people of India intended to secure to all citizens and the basic structure of the Government and the polity which was to be established.
The following objectives which the Preamble secures to every citizen are :
Justice—Social, economic and political;
Liberty—of thought, expression, faith and worship;
Equality—of status and opportunity, and to promote among them all;
Fraternity—assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of the Nation.
Democracy would be meaningless if it fails to generate the spirit of brotherhood among all sections of the society—the feeling that they are children of the same soil and of the same motherland. The concept of brotherhood could be achieved if it is given the practical shape by abolishing titles and untouchability.
Liberty, equality and fraternity were the slogans of French Revolution, which have been adopted in our Constitution. These concepts bring the feeling of oneness to the people of India. The attainment of the collective good of the society as distinguished from individual good is the main objective of rendering justice to the people. Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of Nation, had the vision of India where the poorest persons shall feel that it is their country in whose making they have an effective voice.
