If we all perform our duties and follow the Constitution, India by 2047 will be among the developed nations and then we will not only be proud of our country and its ancient legacy but also be able to make its present happy and prosperous and will be assured of a bright future”.

Yogi congratulated all the people of the state on the occasion. “This day in 1950, India adopted its own Constitution. India’s Constitution is among the biggest in the world. For 74 years since the country adopted its Constitution, it dissolved all hurdles such as caste, religion and regionalism,” he said.
