Why are Indian constitutional principles unalterable
Answers
Answer:
The basic structure of constitution shall not be amended. Any law introduced by parliament which is inconsistent or in derogation of basic structure shall be declared void.
basic structure is not defined anywhere in Constitution. Judiciary with help of different matters interprets what can be the basic structure.
Answer:
"Constitutional principles" are "unalterable" because they form the "basic structure of the constitution". Any law or policy introduced by the parliament which undermines the "basic structure of the constitution" cannot be passed and will be considered null. This is done to protect the rights of people such as the right to practice the "religion" of their choice. If the constitutional principles can be altered then the government can impose its will on the citizens and create a feeling of instability among the masses.
