The debates can supply the form and content of the Constitution's basic features, which lie beyond the reach of constitutional amendments. Finally, as much as they shine a light on the past, the debates can help address present-day questions that the assembly neither faced nor foresaw. It embodies the basic philosophy and fundamental values on which Indian Constitution is based i.e., moral, political and religious. As it reflects the dreams of the founding fathers of the constitution, SC has held that Preamble is the key to understanding the mind of constitution makers.

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 11 months ago

It is called so because Indian Constitution has borrowed provisions from the constitutions of various other countries. ... However, calling the Constitution a bag of borrows is unfair because it is not a result of blind copy and paste.

  • The government, as a part of the society, controls individual freedom through laws that embodies the power of the government and are legitimatised.

The Directive Principles of State Policy can be defined as guidelines that are to be followed by the government in the governance of the country. These principles help in giving directions and instructions to legislators and government authorities to keep in mind while implementing policies. These are not a substitute for laws of the country. These principles contain lofty ideas, deep human thought, belief and knowledge. They cannot be found in any other Constitution apart from India and Ireland.

Studying political theory is not like studying methematics for the reasons mentioned below:
(i)Unlike in mathematics where there can be one definition of a triangle or square, we encounter many definitions of equality or freedom or justice.
(ii)This is because terms like equality, freedom or secularism are not abstract issues in our lives. Rather, we daily encounter discrimination of various sorts in families, schools, colleges, shopping malls etc. 
(iii)For instance, when we are in a queue for goods and services, we want equal opportunity. We resent people who jump the queue in order to get services first.
(iv)However, if there are special counters for the old and disabled, we understand that equality of opportunity is not enough and such special treatment is justified to ensure fairness in society.

The legal rights are protected by an ordinary law, but they can be altered or taken away be the legislature by changing that law. Fundamental Rights are protected and Guaranteed by the Constitution and they cannot be taken away by an ordinary law enacted by the legislature. If a legal right of a person is violated, he can move to an ordinary court, but if a fundamental right is violated the Constitution provides that the affected person may move to High court or Supreme Court. Here we should note that theRights to Property was a fundamental right before 1978. The Constitution (Forty-fourth Amendment) Act, 1978, taken away the Right to property (Article 31) as a Fundamental Right and was made a legal right under new Article 300 A.

An ordinary right generally imposes a corresponding duty on another individual (and, state in some cases) but a fundamental right is a right which an individual possess against the state.Fundamental rights are protected against invasion by the executive, legislature and the judiciary. All fundamental rights are limitations on legislative power. Laws and executive actions which abridge or are in conflict with such rights are void and ineffective.Our constitution guarantees the right to move the Supreme Court for the enforcement of fundamental rights. Thus the remedy itself is a fundamental right. This distinguishes it from other rights.The Supreme Court is the guardian of fundamental rights.

Further, all constitution rights not fundamental rights e.g. right not to be subjected to taxation without authority of law (art. 265), right to property (art. 300a), and freedom of trade (art. 301). A fundamental right cannot be waived. An ordinary legal right can be waived by an individual.

A right is essentially an entitlement or a justified claim. It denotes what we are entitled to as citizens, as individuals and as human beings. Rights are something that we consider to be due to us, something that the rest of society must recognise as being a legitimate claim that must be upheld.
(i)Rights are important for all of us for leading a life of respect and dignity In fact, one of the grounds on which rights have been claimed in that they represent conditions that we collectively see as a source of self-respect and dignity.
(ii)In a democracy generally people or citizens have the right to expression. Citizens can express themselves freely in different ways. The right to expression gives us opportunity to be creative and original, whether it be in writing, or dance, or music or any other creative activity.
(iii)Freedom of expression is essential and useful for democratic government also. As this freedom or right allows the free expression of beliefs and opinions, the government can know this successes or failures or desires or dislikings of the people.

(iv)Rights are necessary for entire world or for whole human beings also. Rights such as the right of livelihood, or freedom of expression, would be important for all human beings who live in society and therefore they are described as universal in nature.

(v)Another basis on which rights have been claimed in that they are necessary for our well-being. They help individuals to develop their talents and skills. A right like the right to education, for example, helps develop our capacity to reason, gives us useful skills and enables us to make informed choices in life.

The federal bureaucracy performs three primary tasks in government: implementation, administration, and regulation. When Congress passes a law, it sets down guidelines to carry out the new policies. Actually putting these policies into practice is known as implementation. The bureaucracy provides necessary administrative functions, like conducting examinations, issuing permits and licenses, and collecting fees. Essentially, it handles the paperwork of everyday government operations.

A coalition government is a form of government in which political parties cooperate, reducing the dominance of any one party within that "coalition". The usual reason for this arrangement is that no party on its own can achieve a majority in the election. Legislative power is constitutionally vested in the Parliament of India of which the president is the head, to facilitate the lawmaking process per the constitution (Article 78, Article 86, etc.). The president summons both the houses (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) of the parliament and prorogues them.

A Constitution refers to a system of laws and principles that act as a basis for governance in a country. There are two types of constitutions.

A Constitution that has been systematically and meticulously written down and embodied in a single document is known as a Written Constitution.

An Unwritten Constitution is the one in which no provisions or laws of the constitution are set in writing but they are documented despite not being incorporated in a single book.

Deep Bhardwaj 5 years ago

Look, FPTP( first past the post) system is used to elect representatives in a country. *Effects of FPTP system in lndia:- 1.) Good effect:- This system is easily understandable by common people who are not much literate and hence this system helps in the easy selection of candidates by the people. 2.) Gained satisfactory results:- It consumes less time to elect a representative as compared to PR system. 3.) Led to the establishment of large and powerful parties:- This system has led to the formation of large and established parties in lndia. For example:- UPA(United Progressive Alliance) and NDA(National Democratic Alliance). 4.) Bad effects:- The minority parties get no recognition in this system and hence they feel alienated. 5.) Votes get wasted:- ln this system, a considerable amount of votes get wasted due to majoritarian system of counting votes. Hence, these are the effects of FPTP system in lndia. Again, l am not a teacher. I am just a student.
