Indian President Pranab Mukherjee said that the
country should guard itself against forces of violence, intolerance and
unreason. Presidentt said in remarks that come against the backdrop of debate on
intolerance in the country, reverence for the past is one of the essential
ingredients of nationalism. Our finest inheritance, the institutions of
democracy, ensure to all citizens justice, equality, and geconomic
equity.
When grim instances of violence hit at these
established values which are at the core of our nationhood, it is time to take
note. When the president is addressing to the nation on the eve of 67th
Republic Day he said we must guard ourselves against the forces of violence,
intolerance and unreason, address to the nation on the eve of 67th Republic
Day.
The President said January 26, 1950, when the
Republic was born and Constitution was adopted, it saw the culmination of
heroic struggle of an extraordinary generation of leaders who overcame
colonialism to establish the world's largest democracy.
He said that they pulled together India's amazing diversity
to build national unity, which has brought us so far. The enduring democratic institutions
they established have given us the gift of continuity on the path of
progress.
