The PM said the makers of the Constitution championed unity in diversity but some people chose not to celebrate it.
Making an oblique reference to the Congress, PM Narendra Modi said on Saturday that while the makers of the Constitution understood the importance of unity in diversity and championed it, some people chose not to celebrate it and began sowing seeds of poison instead.
Giving his reply to the debate commemorating 75 years of the adoption of the Constitution, the Prime Minister also spoke about the Emergency and said the period is a taint on the Congress, which will never be washed away.
Beginning his speech, PM Modi said India's journey since the adoption of the Constitution in 1948 has been "extraordinary" and emphasised that the country has deep roots in democracy, which have been an inspiration for the world.
