Executive, legislature, judiciary should work together to make people's lives better: President

President Murmu emphasizes the importance of unity, integrity, and citizen participation in upholding India's Constitution and national goals.

It is the responsibility of the executive, legislature and judiciary to work together to make the lives of common people better in accordance with the spirit of the Constitution, President Droupadi Murmu said on Tuesday (November 26, 2024).

Addressing a special event on the occasion of 75 years of the adoption of the Constitution, Ms. Murmu also said the fundamental duties of every citizen had been clearly defined in the country's founding document, which lay stress on protecting the nation's unity and integrity, promoting harmony and ensuring the dignity of women.

“Constitutional ideals get strength from the active participation of the executive, legislature and the judiciary, as well as all citizens,” she said.

"In accordance with the spirit of the Constitution, it is the responsibility of the executive, legislature, and the judiciary to work together to make the lives of common people better," she added.

The President said the aspirations of the people found expression in the many legislations enacted by Parliament and, during the past few years, the government took many steps for the development of all sections of society, especially the weaker ones.

"Such decisions have improved the lives of the people and are providing them new opportunities for development," she said.

Mr. Murmu said she was happy to note that, with the efforts of the Supreme Court, the country's judiciary was making efforts to make the judicial system more effective.
