Objective of the seminar:

SEMINAR SCHEDULE:

We have a general attitude to ignore the history. For many, history today has no relevance. The main reason behind choosing the topic is to explore the phenomena and proceedings of the constitution making and to analyse the progress of nation-building in India. But the harsh reality is that the building of a nation and the withering away of the nation is sum-zero game in case of India. Does the “huge” constitution of our country not provide any way to curb this tendency? Or did the "same" people of India derail from path of development?

It can also be an assumption that, we never understood what our torch bearers made us to understand? There is neither the dearth of questions, nor the arguments and counter arguments? But our objective is "solution oriented". We are searching for an alternative. Blame game will always harm, the need of the hour is to reach a consensus. If the nasty, brutish and selfish man can come under the tacit consent to form a state then why not the member of the same state can come together under a common platform for a better future that ensures dignity and self respect, equality, and liberty and ultimately gives a just state.
