‘Socialist, secular’ should be part of Constitution’s Preamble: Patnaik
Bhubaneswar, Nov 27 (PTI) Leader of Opposition in Odisha Assembly Naveen Patnaik on Wednesday said that the two words ‘socialist and secular’ should be part of the Preamble of Indian Constitution. Patnaik said this a day after the Odisha Assembly witnessed pandemonium and was adjourned twice over alleged “insult” to the Constitution as two words ‘socialist and secular’ were missing in the replica of the Constitution which was on display near one of the entry points of the House. “This a bad mistake. That shouldn’t be there. India is very much a secular country,” the former chief minister told reporters
