Participants hold hands to form an unbroken human chain across dists., read the Preamble

Participants hold hands to form an unbroken human chain across dists., read the Preamble

The Hindu
Sunday, September 15, 2024 3:33 PM GMT

Students, leaders, and citizens form a human chain to celebrate International Day of Democracy, emphasizing unity and democratic principles.

Students, leaders, members of non-government agencies and citizens participated in a human chain formed across the districts to celebrate the International Day of Democracy on Sunday.

Participants stood holding hands and read the Preamble of the Constitution.

In Belagavi, leaders and officers inaugurated the chain by paying floral tributes to an image of the preamble of the Constitution, in front of the Suvarna Soudha in the morning. Folk artists performed along the way.

Minister Satish Jarkiholi described the human chain as an effort to create a sense of kinship among all human beings. “We need to understand what democracy is. It is a system of governance that allows expression of diverse voices and ensures protection of fundamental rights. We need to celebrate it and remind ourselves of the ideals and principles of democracy,” he said.

“Democracy is a powerful and dynamic force that helps us realize our highest aspirations for freedom, equality and justice,” he added.

He said that the idea of democracy is surrounded by the ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity and that it is every citizen’s duty to protect it.

It is the Constitution drafted by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and his associates that has created a strong and successful democracy. “We need to preserve it, though there are still so many social and economic inequalities,” he said.
