Independence Day and Republic Day hold immense significance for our nation. The Indian Constitution, comprising 12 volumes, was formulated after extensive discussions and consultations post-independence. Our constitution enshrines principles of equality, brotherhood, and freedom. One crucial aspect of the Indian Republic is the equal treatment of all religions. Economic development must be accompanied by social progress, and in today’s interconnected world, fostering universal alliances is essential. The government must address the growing inequality and the economic slowdown resulting from the post-COVID-19 pandemic. It is imperative to safeguard the educational sector, as any setback will hinder social progress. In this regard, the JSS Educational Institutions have played a commendable role. The success of the JSS Group can be attributed to the blessings of Paramapujya Jagadguru Sri Deshikendra Mahaswamiji,” he remarked.
