Gujarat Class 9 Answered

Following are four important ideals on which the Preamble to the Indian Constitution lays special emphasis:

Justice – This ideal implies that citizens of India cannot be discriminated on the basis of caste, religion and gender. It entrusts the Government of India with the removal of social inequalities and the welfare of all, especially the disadvantaged groups.

Liberty – This ideal establishes that there are no unreasonable restrictions on Indian citizens in terms of what they think, their manner of expression and the way they wish to follow up their thoughts in action.

Equality – It asserts that all Indian citizens are equal before the law of the land. It recognises that the traditional social inequalities are irrelevant and the government is obliged to ensure equality of opportunity for all citizens.

Fraternity – It means that all citizens should behave as if they are part of the same family. No one should treat a fellow citizen as inferior.
