Removal of CEC/CAG.
Political parties, political leaders, the government, and the Parliament, accepted
the idea of inviolable basic structure. Even when there was talk about ‘review’ of
the Constitution, that exercise could not cross the limits set by the theory of the
basic structure.
❖When the Constitution was made, leaders and people of our country
shared a common vision of India.
❖In the Constituent Assembly, all the leaders mentioned this vision:
dignity and freedom of the individual, social and economic equality, well-
being of all people, unity based on national integrity. This vision has not
disappeared. People and leaders alike hold to the vision and hope to
realize it.
❖Therefore, the Constitution, based on this vision, has remained an object
of respect and authority even after half a century. The basic values
governing our public imagination remain intact.
