last stop each other
Republic okay
thank you good afternoon
in last day topics sovereignty uh what else socialism
secularism democracy and uh Republic
[Music] social and economic democracy means you
need to ensure kind of largely equality and all those things in the social and economic aspect social economic like
let's say political aspects means what about your voting about your contesting election about participating in
governance criticizing the government getting the work done from the government accessing government services
political political aspects social aspect means what for example in society
there should no be there should not be any kind of discrimination based on your primordial identities religious
discrimination or Constable gender-based class based all those things are social discrimination or social aspects if you
have kind of equality there that means okay you have social what do you call as this democracy or look at economic
economics there should be no economic based discrimination means class Rich poor discrimination and economic
inequalities should not be very very high yes understandable that in any society you cannot have every individual
to be equal that is in no Society it can happen not just here another thousand years down the line another ten thousand
years down the line also in no Society everybody will be equal economically I'm telling economically means you
understand right everybody we should own same land same property whoa it'll never
happen but at least you should ensure equality of opportunities or discrimination should not be there
that you have to ensure that's what you called as social economic democracy that's what whatever you were given for
example we still don't have the quality of MPS I mean leaders we still have the problem of nutrition we still have
income inequalities actually it has increased a lot Regional imbalance those are all what do you call it as social
economic democracy is yet to be achieved clear economic aspect social model is
the same concept we'll study under equality also broadly the same but before that let's understand another topic called as
Liberty Liberty broadly in polity can also take it as what
broadly you can also take it as Freedom so any idea what do you mean by Liberty
in India evidence of constraints find any correct
fine that is one simple definition correct then for example actually what you have to
see is on Liberty actually they give lot of questions May
Liberty we can divide it into two first
negative Liberty freedom from
foreign Liberty freedom 2. so these are the two
broader aspects So when you say negative Liberty freedom from what does that mean in simple verse as he also pointed out
there should be no restrictions on your personal aspects for example government
should not tell you what religion you have to follow or what dress you have to wear what food you have to eat what so
many things are there what profession you have to do what opinion you should have what ideology should support which party you should support those things
are number which song you have to know those things are not left to the government to decide so then what do you
mean by that the negative Liberty means negative doesn't mean bad again I'm telling you in polity please don't
negative please don't take negative and positive as good and bad negative means what should not be there or what
yeah negative means what should not be there take it like that so freedom from you should have freedom from the
external restriction so this is an external concept others should not put pressure on you to determine all these
things that's why negative Liberty includes so many aspects as I said right from your freedom of speech and
expression to religion to you know whatever addressing this that everything you include was about a negative Liberty
freedom from the external restrictions clear so then what do you mean by
positive Liberty freedom 2 so what do you mean by Freedom 2 then
Freedom 2 means you should have the opportunity to realize your ultimate potential goals and to what you call as
this ultimate personality development whatever you call that as that is called as Freedom too sir what do you mean by
that very simple one let's say for example I I normally keep giving this is a kind of ncert example also let us
assume there is a son of a manual scavenger manual scavenger you might have a manual scavenger you know right
my name is those who physically goes with the hands and and clears all those things let us say there is a son of him
when is there any restriction on him to clear this exam like civil service exam and become IAS or to make a startup and
then become like a mani adani or whatever such a man Salman so many people are is there any restriction on is there anybody telling him not to
become that nobody is the Constitution telling that you should not become IAS you should not become IPS you should not become CM PM
is anybody telling it that is not that means what he has he has negative Liberty because nobody
is putting restriction on you nobody is putting restriction on you but in reality you ask the question what is
the chances of him if he is born in such a situation clearing this exam one person I mean one note of thousand that
you don't tell me that exceptions like I said so great exam that is different I'm telling you average chances
chances obviously every one of us know what is the chance that means even though he has no
restrictions from anybody else government is not putting restriction on you Society is not putting restriction on you you are unable to realize your
potential reason you will not get access to that level of quality education that
level of Quality Health Care that level of skill that level of exposure contacts finances anything you tell or because
all those things also will matter in addition to so many other aspects and obviously you think in general
so that is called as what positive Liberty Freedom 2 that means freedom to achieve your goals freedom to realize
your potential freedom to fulfill your goals and aspirations so that is called as positive Liberty
largely we have negative Liberty positive Liberty is yet to be achieved
we have of course we have improved a lot so many things no doubt about it we still have to achieve positive Liberty
because in India quality education Quality Health Care this is that everything is not available to all which
is common thing I don't have to again tell so hence we should focus on positive Liberty aspects
um yes yes when you study correct when you
study in optional aspects there is differences but in quality aspects more or less broadly the same actually Liberty is
more broader one so freedom is a part of it where you have referring to that kind
of restriction that kind of heaven but in general quality wise so you have to take it as broadly the same
so got it so when they say in upsc they keep asking every year they have I mean alternators they have asked this
question still they'll ask what is the simplest definition of Liberty simplest definition means you have to choose
negative Liberties are simplest absence of restraints but what is the most appropriate definition of Liberty they
ask the most appropriate definition of Liberty is what this is the real meaning real intention of Liberty to empower you
so that you go and achieve your goals got it so this is the real meaning of
Liberty got abroad area now huh
no no not like that that will come to that so this is the basic meaning
clear this is basic meaning now there's another statement which says
like any fundamental rights we'll also study it in your fundamental rights
so this is the statement
so what is it so read the statement you will only easily understand it is not absolute it is qualified in nature it
means what they can also put it it is subjected to reasonable restrictions
what do you mean by that very simple again this will come back in your fundamental rights also take freedom of speech on expression fine so negative
Liberty means what nobody should restrict your freedom of speech and expression you should be able to tell what you feel it can be through your
writings articles movies paintings or what you call as this YouTube channels
is anything you call it as freedom of speech that is a common one but can you
can you give hate speech saying that I also have freedom of speech and expression obviously they can't allow you according
to ncrb the government of India's official record National criminal crime records Bureau 2022 there is 500 percent
increase in criminal hate speeches in the last five years 500 percent
imagine the impact then why all those things you ask yourself 500 increase is there
that means five times it has increased to that level it is so that means what then what you have to do
what you should do you have to put certain restrictions for example in Freedom us we'll again discuss in your
fundamental rights it is subjected to restrictions based on the grounds of public order that means if you try to do
something with research public order what they do your freedom of speech and expression restricted
let's say you try to disturb communal Harmony restricted you try to unnecessarily defame others defame means
without any proof you are telling that this person is corrupt this person did a murder you have to have some kind of
evidence or proof you just keep on you can't claim just like that because in society reputation also matters that
will fall under defamation that may also restrict your speech on expression clear so that I think you got an idea
that is what you call it as it is oh dear
it is not restricted sorry it is not absolute it is subjected to reasonable
that's why look at the word reasonable restriction means god unnecessary restrictions governments
cannot put on you there should be some reason Beyond it there should be some logic there should be it should be done
for some purpose so but who will determine what is reasonable what is unreasonable sir every government will
tell this is reasonable only that's why government will not determine it codes will determine what is reasonable what
is non-reasonable or unreasonable restriction if courts feel this restriction is too
much this is violating your speech on expression they will take it out they will tell no your freedom is must your freedom
fundamental rights is first but that is let let's keep that all the
discussion for your fundamental rights chapter there you will have so much of in details so got it this is one basic
idea then another within itself extended to this there's this 2018 upsc statement
I'll tell you I'll write the statement you please try to tell them what meaning uh
try to interpret and tell me the meaning
make sure that someone else will take availability of others okay fine okay just a little explanation
extrapolate matlabs give kind of an example
um
there's the statement should be if there is not there should be Liberty but it is not the stepped end
the contribution is not going to increase this it's like a convention over there
fine but look at this if there are no laws there is no Liberty I'm telling
in UK doesn't mean there is no law that's a different one there is no return Constitution doesn't mean you
don't have loss so don't take it like that huh
correct so it is more or less what is that's what I'm trying to ask the same example this is actually linked to
this whatever the example I gave you for example you have you are given from a
speech and expression it's your Liberty it's your freedom let's say you you misuse it to such an extent that you are
just keep on using whatever you want you are trying to say that means will it not lead to some kind of Riot or something it may lead to
criminal right if it leads to communal rights some other persons some other person may get affected he may be get
beaten maybe who knows some kind of in you may die also a lot of criminal rights has led to a lot of deaths now
are you not affecting another person's Liberty then hate speech what you say as your Liberty
has led to which one communal right communal rate led to violation of someone else's Liberty that means
hence you should always put loss loss means take it as
what yeah replace it by the word if there are no reasonable restrictions then what
will get affected others Liberties get affected that's the reason remember the way you
can look various statements like let's say for example Gandhi's Gandhi's very famous statement is there that freedom comes with responsibility
you can't just enjoy from just like that you also have to use it responsibly it's like that or there is very famous
statement of Voltaire he's a very famous French thinker he says your Liberty stops at my nose means you do whatever
you want to what body should not do don't get into my personal life don't try to affect me one another way you
rest you take it your time it's your wish same same rule applies for me also might Liberty should not enter your
house your nose means your nose means you understand right I should not enter into your personal life that's your wish
that's my wish if there are no reasonable restrictions
or loss there is no Liberty so this is a upsc question ncrt may just
directly pick and paste 2018 fine there's another one this says this
here there were two questions one two question even here there is a question
even here there is a upsc question no there's last one left out in whatever has been explained in where there is UPS
are still not asked question you never know maybe they may ask this trend claims also but we need to discuss it which is
called as what
harm principle it is given by a very famous scholar called as
JS Mill John Stuart Mill he was a UK that is British caller now he has classified into two types
what is it minor harm major harm look at the word itself minor harm Miner hum means what
then that means this is a principle given by John Stewart Mill to decide when to put
restrictions on which activity okay if you told that yes sir they should be reasonable restrictions but how do you
decide when to put the reasonable restriction on what activities will you put will you leave it to government if you leave it
to government government will restrict every criticism who will decide how will you decide on what basis
there should be some parameter right okay here you put restriction here it is not necessary for that he has given a principle called
as harm So based on the harm you can identify can you put the restriction or not minor means that as the name it says
yes it is not having an impact on others life liberty security or property
it is not affecting others which what life or property or security very simple example taking from ncert itself exactly
same example what they say is let us say for example if you're laying in an apartment and your neighbors are playing huge
sound means kind of party sound whatever you call that as fine so huge sounds are coming now are you getting Disturbed
here yes yes you're getting Disturbed but what you have to ask yourself is there a
threat to your life or Liberty or property there is no threat there is no threat
inward hence what he says is if there is no threats involved there is no need of
punishment there is no need of law or punishment to
tackle that sir then how to tackle it then you have to just take it care take care of it
through this is the exact wording also used
how do I have to take it social disappear all social disapproval means what go criticize them talk to
them that itself will bring a balance fine so that is called it as minor harm because the what is the parameter is
there a threat to others Life Property Liberty then extend the same one so they drank
so many whatever alcohol whatever you take it as alcohol or drugs whatever it is then they took a car
now the events having drink and drive kind of even now is there a chances of
creating major harm or not no of course yes because anything can
happen you never know you are on drugs you are on drinks now then what is the chances of threat to others life or
Liberty then very high hence what happens what they say is here there is need of law or
punishment there is a need of law or punishment
that is called as major because it's a major harm getting the point what do you mean by minor and major that is what harm
principle given by John Stuart Mill minor harm major harm when do you have to decide
clear so this is a very important concept related to Liberty then there is
mostly this is this is what is been given by upsc related to Liberty one then of course this is all you have to
extend it and take it to what we call it as uh uh fundamental rise and all those that
will do it later clear yeah so please write this
Liberty so first point tell which country have you borrowed it from borrowed from France
borrowed from France
so then you put there are two types of Liberty Ginger was first copied
there are two types of Liberty
first one is negative Liberty freedom from
negative Liberty freedom from
so what do you mean by that it is the simplest definition of Liberty so if the statement says in upsc
simplest definition of Liberty choose negative it is a simplest definition of Liberty
it is the simplest definition of Liberty
simplest definition of Liberty so how can you define it it refers to absence
of external restraints restrictions it refers to
absence of it refers to absence of external
restrictions or restraints absence of external restrictions
absence of the external restrictions fine broadly it includes
broadly it includes freedom of speech and expression
broadly it includes freedom of speech and expression
freedom of speech and expression freedom of religion
freedom of religion fine freedom to participate in
governance Etc so so many believe Faith worship everything you can write I have already mentioned in the beginning
Constitution mentions Preamble mentions five key words thought expression freedom of thought expression faith
belief worship so all those things negative Liberty then below that you write positive Liberty Freedom too
positive Liberty Freedom too
freedom to achieve something that is so how can you define that it refers to
the freedom to it refers to the ability of
an individual it refers to
the ability of the individual it refers to the ability of the
individual to realize one's potential goal dreams
ability of an individual to realize one's potential or goals
one's potential or goes it tries to it tries to
develop the personality of an individual which one positive Liberty
he tries to develop the personality of an individual
tries to develop the personality of an individual
personality of an individual clear what does it depend on then it depends on that means positive Liberty depends on
it depends on it depends on access to Opportunities or
equality of opportunities it depends on access to opportunities
quality education access to Opportunities quality
Education Health Care Etc
access to opportunities quality Education Health Care Etc
yeah so that is what you call it as positive Liberty and what is this as we
have already told upsc when it gives appropriate this is the most appropriation bracket just to clarify that in margin this is the most
appropriate definition or intention of Liberty this is the most appropriate
definition or purpose intention of Liberty this is the most appropriate
definition or purpose intention of Liberty
fine then write this statement just copy it just like that
foreign
then if this is done the next one
replace the word lost by reasonable restriction and then we'll write an example first
copy this statement
foreign so give an example for example
freedom of speech and expression may be misused for example freedom of speech and
expression freedom of speech on expression may be
misused freedom of speech and expression may be misused
may be misused as hate speech
freedom of speech and expression may be misused as hate speech
hate speech so what this may lead to which may lead to public order that is
disturbance in public order may be misused as hate speech which may
lead to disturbance in may lead to disturbance in public order
and thereby communal riots
and thereby criminal rights and what it might lead to finally
this affects others life or Liberty this affects
this will affect others life or Liberty
this affects others life or Liberty that means hence others Liberty is affected them
clear if you want to write in margin write that statement as said by Gandhi
Freedom comes with responsibility
as said by Gandhi
Freedom comes with responsibility
Freedom comes with responsibility well then you put this heading and copy
it first you write harm principle John Stewart Mill
foreign principal under that first one minor
harm so what do you how do you define minor huh
so first of all what do you mean by Mana Ram those actions which will not affect which will not have a threat to
those actions those activities which will not affect
those actions which will not affect the life or Liberty secure anything you can
write which will not affect the life or Liberty of other individuals
those actions which will not affect the life or Liberty
which will not have the life or Liberty of others fine then how like this
there is no need of Allah or punishment for this what is enough social disapproval is enough
reverse it [Music] it's already defend it then
those activities which will affect the life and Liberty of others on them write the point
you have to put penalties restrictions whatever you call them as
those actions which will affect the life and Liberty of others
so this is a very famous one because time and again upsc asked questions on Liberty negative positive reasonable
restrictions this is that one or other way they'll ask
No Doubt
fine okay that is one
now let's go to the other one after Liberty then need off
nor punishment
now next one for the adding equality
so there are different types first we'll write equality
under that first one it can be divided into it can be divided into
it can be divided into three types again first one is you can call it as Civic or
social equality largely it means the same
it can be divided into three types first one is Civic or social equality
that means what should not be there then negatively you define clarify that what do you mean by that it refers to absence
of it refers to absence of discrimination
it refers to the absence of discrimination absence of discrimination based on
based on social identities like
absence of discrimination based on social identities like say religion caste gender
language Etc absence of discrimination based on
social identities like religion caste gender Etc
for example article 14 to article 18 of fundamental
rights for example article 14 to article 18 of fundamental rights
article 14 to article 18 of fundamental rights ensures Civic equality we'll discuss that of
course it's a funny big chapter very big chapter fundamental rights there we'll discuss all these things
article 14 article 18 of fundamental rights part 3 ensures Civic equality
fine so that's where you get equality before law you might have heard terms like equal protection of law prohibition of discrimination equality of
opportunity in public employment abolition of untouchability so many things are there basically those are all your Civic social equality then comes
political equality second one which is more or less similar to what yesterday we discussed as political
democracy
political equality so what do you mean by that it includes
it includes Provisions like so what did we discuss under your what do you call as this
political democracy yesterday what all did I tell you correct so before that Universal
right towards those things it includes political aspects like right to vote or you can mention it as universal adult
franchise it includes Provisions like Universal adult franchise
right to contest elections Universal adult franchise right to
contest election right to contest election a right to take part in government activities means
to get access to which whatever Education Health Care any kind of other services all those things
Universal adult franchise right to contest the elections and right to get access to the government service or take
part in the government activities anything you call it as those are all part of your political equality
clear then comes your economic equality which is more or less again we have told
you yesterday itself economic equality
economic equality
so what does that mean it refers to it refers to absence of discrimination
based on absence of discrimination based on
economic criteria or economic grounds like it refers the absence of
discrimination based on economic grounds as thems of discrimination based on
economic growths like class status
based on class status
fine that is called as economic equality clear now within that it's not so easy
because the subdivisions also within that for example let's say have you heard concept like
foreign
equality of outcomes fine any idea what do you mean by equality I think I gave you a brief also
maybe or I'm not sure what do you mean by equality of opportunity then everybody keeps telling everybody should
get access to equal opportunity what do you mean by equal opportunities or what is the concept called as equality of
opportunity then yeah correct correct theoretical but
some practical you tell like sir this is what it is
okay fine clear so okay that's what I am telling for example equality of opportunity in job sir what do you mean
by that every every you just conduct an exam let everybody contest and whoever
gets into the top give them the top position this looks good very good same you apply to
politics also so what do you mean by equality of opportunity in politics then conducting election
let anybody contest ultimately it's democracy so whoever people chooses they'll go to the top correct this is
equality of opportunity now reverse the point for example for women you take is
there any provision of course just now we have told Universal adult scientists what is that in simple words mean
does the Constitution say that women should not contest election or does the Constitution say that women should not vote in nothing but at present even
yesterday I think I might have given you fact how many women MPS are there in Lok Sabha one for 14 percent now if there is
so much of equality of opportunity for women why are they if on an average if we take India's
population around let's say 50 50. if 50 are women why do you have only 14 MPS then
getting the point if you have 50 population of women in general as overall if you take it you'll be 49
increase in nfhss actually if you take all because women live longer life according to biologically they have a
strength of living longer lives actually it is 51 or 52 according to nfhs National family health fair enough you
live there all those things let's say ticket is 50 50 why do you have only one four percent then
social acceptance and resources to fight elections okay fine so he's telling us a social acceptance
maybe the patriarchy angle or normally Indian traditional Society may not accept women as their leaders or because
elections is so competitive you have to come marinate so many things money people this that everything it's not so
easy for women to come and participate to such an extent maybe women don't have access to that level of resources
properties whatever so many things are there correct then how are you in shower how do you say that there is equality of
opportunity then getting so that's why that's where comes
a concept called as equality of outcomes so in simple words when you say equality of opportunity your focus is on where
means path creating a Level Playing Field for all it is very very easy to
tell for example we can tell easily why do you have to give reservation give everybody equal education give every let
everybody get the how do you give good or quality education for if that was so easy
there need not be all these problems how can you give quality Education First of all defining quality education is
subjective to how do you give quality education for let's say for example as a huge business he will sell the whatever
which is very famous School in the latest it is resistance in Delhi Public School only okay let's say will everybody go to
Delhi Public School I mean you think logically can you have every can every parent send
their children to the Lee Public School yes sir yes sir you can tell practically
you tell theoretically it's that's a different issue so if that is the case then how do you
ensure quality Education Health Care for all then it is impossible in practice and Society
you are assuming that Society is inherently equal Society in general is not inherently
equal depending on which family are you born in which area are you born in which gender are you born in which cast are
you born in so many plus and minus you get what positives and challenges whatever you call that as
normally Democratic societies focus on what equality of outcome outcome means
what here the focus is on result not on the means now let's say
here we get the example of women now let's take the same one you take 73rd Amendment 74th amendment in simple words
panchayats and municipalities what they have done minimum one third of the seeds for whom
women now irrespective of it what will happen here
minimum one third you have there is no other option you have to get human so that means what is insured
result is insured but even here there comes a question sir what if they are not quality waste then
you focus on their quality agreed but or else what will happen if you only focus here this will not get insured
that is the reason mostly we focus on result and whatever we keep telling it
as technically aspects like reservations we tell right reservation
in jobs everything broadly there is a word for it called as affirmative action
or
or they also call it as
so all of them is based on the idea of equality of outcome affirmative action
what do you mean by affirm actually affirm means something you say very strongly positively so that is means the
positive measures taken by the government to improve the lives of the marginalized vulnerable whatever you
call them as poor women children minorities racist whatever you call the mess that measures is what you call as
affirmative action yes it is also a kind of discrimination but remember by the definition of
discrimination you should focus on the what do you call as the what do you call as this intention in general when you
say discrimination what is the intention here the intention is to exclude someone demean someone but here it is not
something to demean or someone what is it the intention is to improve the lives of someone that is why it is called as what
not negative discrimination positive discrimination measures taken to bring a positive impact on someone's
life it is also called as yes you're treating someone differently there's a way like let's say when you
give reservation for women in panchayas or OBC reservation in jobs AC reservation in jobs you're treating
differently we're not saying no but the intention is to ensure results and the entire Constitution or
any Democratic Society is not based on the idea of equality because in general equality is very difficult to ensure you
can't treat everybody equally because Society itself is inherently unequal then what is the idea
Equity Equity means you should treat the individual based on their needs based on
their weakness based on their challenge understanding for example is there wherein you know accessible
India campaign or you go to any Metro stations I I have not observed in the limit or so easily but if you have
observed them you may have ramps in so many Railway stations also you have ramps for physically challenged will you call it as discrimination
obviously it's not because what are you trying to ensure them Equity because we know there is a
challenge for them hence you have to give getting an idea this is called as
equality of opportunity equality of outcome of course yes some issues are misused
some loopholes are there we are not saying no for example this for this there's a very broad Supreme Court service for example the idea of
reservation itself is sometimes issues because the idea of reservation is the benefit should go to the last person the
real needy but sometimes what will happen because of the documents issues whatever so many issues benefits may not go to
the needy person that's why there is a criticism that it may create a class within class
means within actually a UBC reservation a series reservation there already were
benefited they themselves May kept getting the benefits that's why it is criticized as it may create a class
within a class means within the beneficiary section some people only will keep getting the
benefits correct or you look at a CST prohibition of atrocities act that is also misuse
there are a lot of fake cases also under that you take Dory prohibition act even that is also misuse there are a lot of instances wherein by what women have put
fake cases also against there is for example what do you call this Mito that is what you call it as production of
women against sexual harassment at workplace there are fake sexual harassment cases also which are put there is no doubt but Supreme Court also
has clarified the mere misuse of Allah is not a ground for declaring the law as
unconstitutional means what just because let's say out of 100 cases if 15 are fake 20 are fake you can't declare the
law itself as invalid because how is the law declared valid or invalid based on the purpose what is the intention of the
law the intention of the law is not to affect someone what is the intention
to uplift someone hence if there are any misuses what you have to then then look
how you can reduce the misuse you can't look for a reason to declare the laws invalid then the negative impact is very
high then that's the reason next time when you find any Fair cases under a CST act or Dory act or child marriage act or meet
of the production of women Acts or domestic violence acts no doubt of
course there are fake cases it is it's not like something Untold or secret everybody knows that but you can't
declare them as unconstitutional you should look to reform it got an idea that is how the measure
should work this is one kind of there is another one there are two these are all ncrt refreshing itself I'm telling because that's where you get the
conceptual Clarity there are two types of inequality that I didn't they identify one is called as
natural inequality second one is called as social inequality
natural inequality means what let's say for example there's a person with one or other kind
of physical challenge means what may be blind I mean Vision Vision disability may be speech related maybe whatever
hands legs movement anything now obviously what is it then natural inequality because by birth or
some other issues genetic issues you have that inequalities that you can't help but there are so
many inequalities which are what social means Society will come up with it the same inside example itself what
they tell is for example the colonial ruling Powers Colonial Powers the British or whatever so many are there
they used social inequality like what for example in U.S the whites I mean the
normal Americans used to tell the black Americans that because to justify in
slavery what they used to tell was the black Americans are childlike their innocent they don't know how to tackle
themselves they can't rule themselves they should always be maintained by someone controlled by someone only then
they can live a better life was the logic which was put across
the logic was to justify slavery that the black Americans are childlike they
are innocent they can't handle themselves hence we should take care of them hence they should always be a master who can take care of you control
you this is it was projected as what it is projected that by birth you are
like that by Nature blacks are like was projected but what was it actually
because it was you know social means what people I mean the white Masters what you call it as they were doing it
so that they can control the blacks same thing Lord I mean British also did
it in India for example racial superiority is there land caramel is when they created the Civil Service
whatever you are appearing for the concept was created by Lord kormalis when he created in 1780s they
intentionally Indians were kept out and the logic they used was first point Indians are corrupt by Nature
that means by Nature you are like that by birth so you first point you can't be put into Civil Service two he said you
don't have the ability you don't have discipline you can't be put here hence you can't rule yourself who should
rule we should rule you racial Superior by race we are more Strong by race you
are weak we are civilized you are uncivilized so it is our responsibility to take care of you remember they keep
telling a very famous statement called as White Man's Burden
so this real word actually it was not natural social but how did they project it as
natural because if they don't tell it is natural we will not listen to them if
they tell us you have all the potential you rule yourself colonialism stay then
they should tell us you guys don't know to rule yourself you are weak only hence
you should listen to me only if they tell you psychologically tell us we can be ruled
same concept again these are all inside only they also tell the angle of patriarchy that means men have also told
women for centuries that you are much good in domestic work you're good in cooking you're good in whatever you do
you know that the so called care economy taking care of children taking care of parents so you are good in there you
stay there men are good in some other works will take care of that that is also what
projected not necessarily natural fine so these are all various examples
related to Natural inequality and social inequality right from colonialism the slavery one to the patriarchy one is
these aspects okay natural inequality is fair enough you can't help social inequality should not be there
I think broadly got an idea please right
did we write equality of opportunities I think social was a family clear
um
yes yes you can't ensure economic equality means by definition again you
should not take economic inequivities everybody should be equal same land same it's not necessarily that
it means there should not be inequality based on your like let's say you're rich someone is poor that discrimination
should not be there that's called as economic require equality we are not saying everybody should own the same
property or wealth that cannot happen understandable I've already told you that in practice you cannot ensure that
there will always be people I mean people who work hard people who can achieve more people who may not work
hard who may not achieve more that you can help that's society that's reality one got it yeah so please write this first
one providing equality of opportunities
equality of opportunity what do you mean by that here the focus is on means
here the focus is on means our path and what is the intention
the intention is to ensure a Level Playing Field
the intention is to ensure
the intention is to ensure a Level Playing Field for all
the intention is to ensure a Level Playing Field for all
for example for example in political domain
for example in political domain women are given
for example in political domain political provisions women are given the right to vote and
right to contest elections equal to men
women are given in political domain political provision
women are given the right to vote and right to contest elections like that of that is equal to men
but what happens below clarify however Society is inherently unequal
that means one another way you will have differences however Society is
however Society is inherently unequal
Society is inherently unequal hence
it is not easy for women
hence it is not easy for women to get to the political positions
hence it is not easy for women to get to the political positions
not easy for women to access the political positions said the fact for example in 17th Lok Sabha only 14
percent are women 14 MPS are women for example in 17th Lok Sabha
only one for 14 percent MPS are women
in 17th Lok Sabha only if one four percent MPS are women
hence what we need hence we need equality of what
outcome hence we need equality of outcome
then Define here the focus is on what here the focus is on the goal result
here the focus is on the goal or result
here the focus is on the goal or goal or result
fine and give the example for example 73rd Amendment provides
of course 74th also but anyone you can write or two also for example 73rd Amendment provides
minimum one-third reservation for women
73rd Amendment provides minimum one-third reservation for women
reservation for women so obviously what this ensures this hand led to their
political empowerment this has led
to their political empowerment
this has led to their political empowerment
clear if you want in margin you can write the statement itself as said by ambedkar
empowerment is
as said by ambedkar political empowerment is the first step
towards political empowerment is the first step
towards true empowerment
political empowerment is the first step towards
political empowerment is the first step towards true empowerment
of any section any community fine how would you ensure politicality
of outcome then write this
equality of outcome is ensured through
it's all moral is trying to achieve the same
foreign
Ty to through differential treatment and Equity principle
then
two types of inequality
two types of inequality first one is natural inequality so as
the name it says what is it those inequalities which are inherent by birth or derived from nature
those inequalities which are inherent by birth are derived from nature derived by
Nature inherent by birth or
derived from nature fine the best one is that for example
for example challenges faced by challenges faced by
a specially abled person or a physically challenged person
that means a blind or a deaf or a dumb whatever you call it as it is a one or other way of disability
challenges faced by physically disabled or physically
challenged person so that is called as natural inequality then social inequality
social inequality those inequalities which are present in the society
those inequalities which are present in the society based on some
based on some prejudice stereotypes
those inequalities which are based in the society based on which are present in the society based
on some Prejudice that means some mitz will be there always they are like this they are
like this so like that many will be there based on some Prejudice I mean like what for example
for example Colonial Masters Colonial countries
Colonial Masters or Colonial rulers Colonial rulers
had racial superiority Colonial rulers had racial superiority
and wherever they went what is the project they had projected that the locals the natives
they had Colonial superiority or racial superiority and they had projected that the locals do not have the ability to
rule themselves they had projected that the locals do
not have locals do not have the ability
to rule to rule protect anything the ability to rule themselves
and ability to remember obviously why was this done this was
this was a strategy to control the people psychologically control the
people this was a strategy to psychologically control people
strategy to control the people and what is this this was a social inequality projected as well
natural inequality they told that it is natural but actually it was social
this was social inequality projected As Natural inequality I think that's more
than enough for equality I'm just combining ncert topics everything so that you get a broader
idea
so whatever moralist Justice we have discussed Justice the ideal is borrowed from
that means today's Russia only but it is more bigger justice so remember Justice is always
Beyond equality Justice is mostly related to or mostly based on what kind
of values these kind of values clear you mentioned that again
Justice below that it includes three components even in Preamble Dimension three components it includes three
components first one social justice
it includes three components first one is
social justice right of course it includes social equality plus something beyond that so
okay what does that mean clarify that more or less we have discussed it it includes
it includes absence of social inequality what you wrote just now
it includes the absence of social inequalities based on
absence of social inequality based on same religion race caste Etc
absence of the social inequalities based on religion caste gender Etc
But A Step Beyond also clarify what does that mean based on religion caste race
Etc in addition in addition the affirmative action action measures
in addition the affirmative action affirmative action measures taken to
improve the lives of affirmative action taken to improve the
lives of marginalized taken to improve the lives of
marginalized marginalized vulnerable sections
improve the lives of the marginalized and vulnerable sections so it's always
the same let them use the word marginalized vulnerable disadvantage all those things like same poor
like poor women children Etc o b c a CST whatever you call it as they
are all what you call it as the marginalization so social in Social Justice Means One Step Beyond not just ensuring social equality uplift the poor
okay that is social justice then economic Justice economic Justice same equality plus
something beyond that Justice
so first tell economic inequality angle it includes
it includes absence of discrimination based on
it includes absence of discrimination
based on economic factors we have already mentioned all these things some overlap should always be
there absence of discrimination based on economic factors that is class rich and
poor that one economic factors like rich and poor or class but what is additional one
in addition in addition
in addition that is it includes affirmative action taken to reduce
economic inequalities which means what income inequality all
those things in narration it includes the measures taken to reduce income inequality
measures taken to reduce economic inequality
measures taken to reduce economic inequality or income inequality
fine clarify again combination of Social and economic
justice is called
combination of social and economic Justice
combination of Social and economic justice is called redistributive Justice
combination of social and economic Justice
is called redistributive Justice and what is it this is the base for or which is the base for welfare state
which is the base foundation for welfare state
which is the base for welfare state fine if simple example you can write for
example have you had a concept called for example progressive taxation
for example progressive taxation is a measure to ensure redistributive Justice
for example progressive taxation is a measure to ensure
is a measure to ensure redistributive Justice
fine you know the basic point of progressive Justice progressive taxation right
you would have told in economy means what correct that's it that means it is
actually a simple Robin phenomena only so what does Robinhood stories do
take from the rich give to the poor what are you doing here more or less the same only but that was
done in a violent illegal manner this is more democratic welfare state-based angle so as your income increases
increase the tax collected redistribute it to the poor clear so that is the idea of progressive
taxation is to ensure redistributive Justice clear then political Justice is whatever
you have already mentioned like the women reservation all those things is actually political Justice political
Justice let's finish off in one line in addition to political equality because I already have already already mentioned
all those things political Justice that's why we keep telling Justice is a more broader
concept compared to which one equality fine in addition to political equality
it includes affirmative measures to politically Empower weaker section
in addition to political equality
it includes affirmative measures
it includes affirmative measures to politically empower
to politically empower vulnerable sections weaker sections whatever it is
to politically empower the weaker section so if you want to write example same
example reservation for AC and St in Lok Sabha and assembly
for example reservations for SC and St remember if I have already told you that I think in
Constitution there is as present there is only reservation for SC and St in Lok Sabha and assembly
women is for panchayatan municipality that is your friend I'm telling him Lok sabhand sir what about rajya sabhasa in
rajya Sabha all those things there is no concept of reservation clear example reservation for SC and St
in Lok Sabha and assembly MLA
that is political Justice clear then there is a concept called as for the heading
this is again an ncrt concept which is a very famous one also this will help you in your
ethics have they kind of tried to cover not it office done did they tell John Ross okay
so try to recall what done by patisser
okay okay reading theory of Justice John Rawls
theory of Justice John Rawls so try to recall what is the gist of
theory of Justice generals foreign
of ignorance okay fine that means you are unable to recall don't worry
so what again of course this is also is criticized it's not in obviously in polity binary service no Theory not just
here in no political Theory or economic theories 100 accepted by everybody because one or other tradition will
always be there no theory is perfect like oh no human is perfect fine so veil of ignorance look at the term veil of
ignorance means what it is actually based related to something called as equality principle what he says is he
assumes a hypothetical situation let us say for example you don't know where you will be born
obviously nobody knows which family you'll be born which parents which runs which religion which nobody knows that
let's say for example before your birth you're given an opportunity to choose which society will be born
because you don't know where you'll be born let's say if you are given an opportunity to create a society what kind of society will you create
will you create a society based on yes sir let it there bear like let's say kind of a system let it be there so I'll
be borrowed Afghanistan sir I like much to be will anybody try to say that
or will anybody say that no sir let me create some 10 categories I'll go to the last category I like to be an underdog
and all those things nobody will obvious because nobody wants discriminate to be discriminated nobody
wants to be in a weak position everybody wants to be much better or at least equality
that's a hypothetical situation in which he says if you are not aware about in which society will be born and given a
chance you'll always try to create a society based on largely the values of equality and Liberty where there is no
broad-based social inequality discrimination those things should not be there
that is called as well of ignorance so hence what he says is if everybody accepts to this principle because more
or less you ask anybody everybody will say that Henry says if everybody accepts to this principle then the government
should try to create such kind of society that is called as equality Prince because you are accepting the principle
morally hence that should be the best of Your Action then is one two is difference principle in
which he says we accept that inherently any equality Society we can't create hence what they say is difference
principle means Let There Be inequalities in society we understand because or else you can't create a Mars
kind of society abolish private property let everybody you can't create like that in society hence we understand it but
inequality should be in such a way that it should be for the advantage of the
last person until they are kind of an idea it should be not for the benefit of whom
Society in society should be designed in such a way that it is for the benefit of the last person
and another one which he says is we understand again that for example let's say you become an MLA you become an MP
or you become an IAS or you become a prime minister will you not get so much of privileges in society will your
social we will go up the social ladder your positions will improve your family will get a lot of respect understandable
hence what he says is let the inequalities be existing but it should be associated with those positions which
are open to all open to all means what I should also have an opportunity to become the PMR
president or an MP or MLA rnis or election commissioner whatever you call it as so then what will happen
fair enough I also have an opportunity to get into that then if it is unequal then fine that means they are they work
better they were hard whatever it is so they succeeded that is called as two other principles
what do you mean by that what do you mean by whale of ignorance then veil of ignorance is a hypothetical
situation hypothetical means imaginary situation in which if an individual is not aware about the society in visual
Bond given a chance what Society will you create largely equal Society because you don't
know where you'll be born to under difference principle what they say is practically we understand there
will be certain inequalities but inequality should be in such a way that it is for the benefit of whom one or the
way the last person we should always try to get some benefit out of it and two it
should be associated with those positions which are what open to all
open to all means you understand right I should also become able to become PMS or presidents or IAS or IPS or whatever you
call this MLS MPS whatever that positions it should be linked to If you close it that means
what you're ensuring if you close it close to the close Society they call it as if you say that only so-and-so can
become king only so and Sir can become MPS or MLS that means what are you doing then you are restricting the Privileges to
only few that Society nobody wants because you don't know if you are you'll be born in
that category or not getting the idea so that is called as
the if you accept this principle what it says this should be the best for welfare state
this is a basic idea of course in depth also is there but if you broadly understand this that is called as theory
of Justice genres it's the base for welfare state across the world
is obviously the disciple they have been student of generals both have got Nobel
Praises for this it's a very in-depth one we are just broadly understanding the idea
so write it if you still have doubt again please ask theory of Justice John Rawls
fine under that first you put equality principle
theory of Justice John Rawls under the equality principle it is based
on the idea of whale of ignorance theory of Justice John Rawls
under that equality principle for that you clarify
what is it based on the idea of whale of ignorance
based on the idea of whale of ignorance whale means it is a blockage when you can't see it and clarified
it means it means in a hypothetical imaginary situation
it means in an imaginary situation
in an imaginary situation if one is not aware
in an imaginary situation if an individual he is not aware
about the society they will be born into or about where they will be born into
if an individual is not aware about the situation Society they will be born into
so what does they do then everyone tries to create
everybody tries to create a society
everybody tries to create a society based on equality and Liberty
kind of egalitarian correct tries to create a society based on the
values of equality and Liberty largely based on equality and Liberty
clear that is well of ignorance then difference principle or differential principle
difference principle
if inequalities exist in society if inequalities exist in society there
is difference as if inequalities exist in society
it should be it should be for the benefit of the disadvantaged
vulnerable if the inequalities exist in society
it should be for the benefit of the disadvantaged
it should be for the benefit of the disadvantaged yeah then another two
inequality should be associated with those positions
inequalities should be associated
inequality should be associated with those positions open to all
should be Associated to those positions open to all
inequalities should be associated with those positions open to all
ok so that is John Rawls so more or less that is the Justice angle then last word
fraternity it is more easy and we already told you whatever you have written in Preamble
two things one is what is the intention of Liberty corrects that one providing fraternity
again borrowed from you French friends
foreign
it means Brotherhood that means we should feel that we are one we are Indian that kind of an idea
is called as fraternity it means Brotherhood
so what is it tries to ensure he tries to ensure Dignity of individual
it tries to ensure Dignity of individual
it tries to ensure the Dignity of individual fine below that clarify the idea of
single citizenship or the provision of single citizenship in India that's why I remember that's why remember in in India
U.S you have dual Constitution dual citizenship but in India that is also trying to ensure this
the provision of single citizenship tries to ensure fraternity that we should feel that we are all one
the provision of single citizenship is to ensure fraternity
and if you ensure fraternity what will happen if fraternity is achieved then unity and
integrity is achieved if fraternity is ensured
if fraternity is ensured unity and integrity will be protected
if fraternity is insured then unity and integrity of nation will
be insured will be achieved unity and integrity of the nation will
be achieved fine but clarify however in reality in
practice there are still challenges to India's fraternity unity and integrity
however in practice in practice there are still challenges
to India's unity and integrity
like what like communal rights that itself shows that the Oneness the Brotherhood angle still
has to come up like communal riots criminal rights regionalism
linguism don't confuse original language linguism as love just for your reason you can obviously love your state love
your language that's absolutely fine it's a load but what do you mean by regionalism or linguism your love for
your region if it goes beyond your love for your nation that means you're putting your
region in front of ahead of your nation that is called as what regionalism if you
strongly feel that yes I am a Punjabi I am a Marathi I am a Tamil or I'm a Bengali that is not regionalism
but what is the point Bengali is greater than Indian that is regionalism angle Punjabi is greater than Indian that is
regionalism if you love your Punjabi language Hindi language Marathi language kannada language that is not linguism
linguism means what you are giving that more priority than what India's unity
and integrity you are ready to compromise India's unity and integrity for your then that is called as
regionalism and linguism don't confuse saying that okay you're feeling that you are a Tamil that means you don't confuse
it like that that is not the same Beyond I think you got the point yeah so
what is greater is the point there fine so problems like what communal riots and what is regionalism linguism
Kashmir issue kalistan problem which again has come up if you have seen the amritpal sings and
all those things yeah Kashmir issue kalistan issue etc those are all in a way
the challenges for India's unit Nagal image so many have told but in general
fine yeah that is broadly the keywords that you have mentioned in the Preamble now the last part for the subheading
is Preamble part of the Constitution
is Preamble part of constitution what is this kind of a question so first of all
why should they and they where should they go into this question you can think practically you can think like that but
legally everything matters let's say for example you want to make a change in the Constitution I mean you want to add a
word to Preamble or you want to delete a word from pyramble now what is the first question that comes up
what is the procedure then if you want to add or delete something there should be a procedure now
Constitution does not explicitly mention how to I am in preamble then the only procedure is mentioned
where article 368. so article 368 talks about the procedure to amend the
provision of constitution now procedure term in provision of constitution the Matlab Does it include Preamble or not
first you should get the clarity because if you don't have a Clarity that e is Preamble first of all part of
Constitution or not how do you get a Clarity how to amend it then let's say you want to add secular word
there let's say you want to delete some socialist word there so then what is the first Clarity then you should understand
is it first of all part of the Constitution or not only then you can get a Clarity how do you amend it then
hence these all problems came up that is it part of the Constitution or not
clear under that first one put the case Union case again this case will will
discuss in your next chapter today itself what is the case related to as of now just take it as it was a boundary
dispute between India and Pakistan at that time East Pakistan today what so
called Bangladesh
1960.
so what did Supreme Court say Supreme Court said that Preamble is not a part of Constitution
now if it is not a part that means what you can do then you can't amend it then it should stay the way as it is
Supreme Court said that Preamble is not part of Constitution
hence it cannot be amended
hence it cannot be amended case
so he will not leave you until you leave upsc success
1973.
we'll discuss what is the details of the case everything is 1973. so what is Supreme Court say
complete reverse Preamble is a part of the Constitution when there is a part then what you can do
correct Preamble is part of the Constitution and
hence it can be amended
Preamble is a part of the Constitution hence it can be amended
and hence it can be amended here fine the next one below that LIC India
case LIC India case
again the same was said was upheld
case
was opened that means same judgment was appealed again judgment was upheld and
and Preamble was declared as integral part of the Constitution
judgment was upheld and Preamble was declared
as integral part of the Constitution
Preamble was declared as integral part of the Constitution
integral part of the Constitution clear LIC India case this is 1985 but
it's fine LIC India case then again clarify that's why okay that is the other clarification is there however
however in in case it is said that
however in kashmananda bharti case just write kbks however in KB case questions
it was said that however in keshwananda bharti case it
was said that no amendment should violate that means you can make changes in
Preamble but what you should not well at that you know by now what is the keyword yes no amendment should violate basic
structure of the Constitution however it was said that
no amendment should violate basic structure of the Constitution
that will discuss that will discuss two other points that is left out still
fine so then ah it should not violate basic structure that means what do you mean by that sir like for example that
we will discuss anyhow basic structure in detail later let's say you have the word called as India is a sovereign socialist secular Democratic Republic
can you take out the word Democratic yes you can amend the Preamble does it mean that I can remove the word democracy
there if you remove our democracy what is the use of telling all these things then
let's say you remove the word summary itself from there what do you use then because it is already declared as part
of basic structure you can't touch the world like Sovereign secular Democratic Republic equality Liberty Justice you
can't touch that's fixed maybe another word if you want to add it you can add that's a
different issue but in general those keywords cannot be touched
go to Media yeah again below you clarify that we know Preamble has only been
amended once Preamble has
only been amended once
Preamble has only been amended once by which one by 40 seconds year 1976.
it has only been amended once by 42nd CA
1976 and what is that yeah it added
socialist secular and integrity because it is only
Unity they also added the word and integrity it added the words socialist secular and
integrity
while now you clarify two points a little more discussion is needed on this first one below that
Preamble is non-justiciable in nature
Preamble is non justiceable
this word will keep repeating multiple times Preamble is non-justiciable in nature
correct correct non-justiciable in nature two below that
it is neither a source of power
it is neither a source of power
it is neither a source of power nor prohibition on
it is neither a source of power nor a Prohibition on the
on the power of legislature or state nor a Prohibition on the powers of the
state or legislature right so this these two whatever you
wrote now this was your 20 20 premiums question fine what do you
not just first point you should understand what do you mean by justiceable non-justiciable fine let me first tell you what do you mean by
justiceable we again we'll keep discussing in your fundamental rights fundamental rights are called as what
justiceable sir what do you mean by that remember we keep telling there's something very famous because it is easy to understand freedom of speech and
expression fine have you heard it there was a movie called as Buddha Punjab there's a movie called as what else was
banned somebody were born the very famous one which was banned now that is your freedom of speech and expression
means what a director wants to make a movie a producer wants to make a movie is it part of his speech of expression
or not because you he has a whatever in mind imagination Whatever It Is Creative expression they call it as you made the
movie whatsoever reason government Bandit now what can you do as a director or producer then
go to the courts you can ask the code see sir this is my freedom of speech and expression
I have this is my freedom creative expression and the government has banned it most of the time 99.99 of the times
what did the courts do courts will tell the government if you want to cut some let's say you
are not happy with it you have sensor but actually it's not called a sensor board it is called as
Central board not sensor board Central board for film certification it is
infamously called a sensor word because what will they do sensor everything it is not sensorable it is a certification
board actually it should only tell okay remember they keep telling 18 plus adults only can watch anybody can watch
children also can watch you have to only just tell that okay fine that's a different issue we'll
discuss it and what are the governments tell allow the movie to be released that means it is justiceable in nature
in other words if it is if your fundamental right is taken away from you if it is violated what you can do then
you can go to the courts courts will give it back to you your movie will be released your book
will be released but Preamble is non-justiciable means what then reverse it non-justice table means what
means let's say for example in Preamble maybe we studied words like social justice equality just know I told you
facts like Oxfam report says that 51 top one percent is winning how much minimum
50 to 55 wealth is warning that means easier way or your equality violated or not
of course it is limited then let's say you go to the code saying sir my equality in Preamble is violated please
do something then what is the code still I can't do anything because it is
non-justiciable please don't come to me for all these things you can't come the garden idea that is
non-justiciable you can't directly implement it but there is a statement which otherwise
say let's say for example there is something called as dpsp that means what you know obviously that government tries
to provide Education Health Care and all those things our government also gives you reservation let's say government is giving
reservation that reservation is leading is giving you a kind of Justice or not
when they give reservation when they give subsidies to Farmers to buy a tractor to buy a Machinery or when they
give one third reservation for women in what in panchayat municipalities is it
not giving Justice for women it is giving that's why there is a statement which says Preamble is not
directly implemented then how can you do it it is implemented indirectly
how is it implemented indirectly you don't implement this directly you implement your fundamental rights you
implement dpsp if you achieve that what will be achieved then this will be achieved
let's say you went to court saying sir my room you will be released okay Supreme Court gave it saying saying that okay it's your fundamental right if
their fundamental rate is given that means here Liberty is given or not Liberty is also part same because that
movie is released your Liberty is given here they give you equality there that means
here it is achieved so that's the upsc question saying Preamble is not directly implemented it is implemented by
implementing other parts of the Constitution means fundamental rights and dpsps
got an idea so clarify that point somewhere in margin again it means where you have written non-justiciable
it means Preamble cannot be implemented directly
you will understand when you better when you understand fundamental rights and dpsp it means Preamble cannot be implemented
directly Preamble cannot be implemented directly
that means the keywords in the Preamble but it can be implemented
Preamble cannot be implemented directly it can be implemented indirectly
it can be implemented indirectly how by implementing other parts of the
Constitution by implemented indirectly by
implementing other parts of the Constitution
other parts of the Constitution clear for example if freedom of speech
and expression is ensured for example if
freedom of speech and expression is ensured but what is by directly what
is it if freedom of speech on expression is ensured which is a fundamental right
19 classrooms of clause a if freedom of speech and expression is
ensured which is a fundamental right that means what you'll achieve then Liberty mentioned in Preamble is also
achieved Liberty mentioned in preamble
Liberty mentioned in Preamble he is also achieved
Liberty mentioned in Preamble is also achieved clear if you want another example if
if dpsp is implemented that means so how many things are there in dpsp will
discuss it if dpsp is implemented then the value of justice is also
implemented if dpsp is implemented
then the value of Justice is also achieved is also implemented
then the value of justice is also implemented clear that is the indirect one and
Preamble is just like a moral reminder it shows the core of the Constitution it
doesn't give any extraordinary power to Preamble our legislature or government also it doesn't restrict your power also
it is just statement that's it that's why it is called as it is neither a source of power nor a Prohibition so
this is broadly a preamble a very important chapter every year one or sometimes two questions in problems
guaranteed and this is best to understand the concepts then any other notes you think
about it will last after the break then we'll start with part one of the Constitution Union and territories before that some facts are there we'll
write that
foreign
things and I receive the Salient features of the Constitution chapter because anyhow
the fundamental rights dpsp fundamental duties secularism related and all those things will study in detail obviously in
separate chapters just put a heading schedules of the Constitution
schedules of the Constitution number schedule means
the factual details given at the end of the Constitution huh
by modifying huh correct
why is it no there I don't think there is a specific reason for why was it enacted
after it but the overall point is both were passed so is there a reason why maybe they would have redrafted it and
maybe that kind of accounts if you look at the chronology of constitution assembly debates you may understand but
I don't think there's a specific reason why vishra was enacted after the even you could have enacted even before that also this is separately that is
separately positive that I am not sure what is the reason because they don't think that matters
also ultimately responsible assembly also that is a point fine and it doesn't make any difference
of that because chronology doesn't matter there are schedules of the Constitution
another question first schedule first schedule schedule means as I said
factual information given at the end what does it deal with must be a first schedule is what names
of the states names of the States and its territorial
jurisdiction names of the states
names of the states and its territorial jurisdiction
names of the States and its territorial jurisdiction yea means if you open for schedule you will
find the names of the states right from they'll start alphabetically from Andhra Pradesh to arunachal Pradesh like that
they'll go fine but you will not find the names of the districts in talukas if you have Constitution apps you click it
and open and you'll get to know that you'll only find the names of the states then to automatically what you'll have
then names of the union territories and its jurisdiction second one is names of beauties union
territories and its jurisdiction names of union territories
and its jurisdiction names of the union territories and
institution that's your schedule one for schedule right then second schedule
second schedule huh
second schedule technically they use the word emoluments
foreign
ERS and privileges of
emoluments allowances and privileges of
and privileges up there's a list but first you should understand what do you mean by emoluments there is a small difference that's it emoluments means
actually your salary in addition what
other benefits let's say you get to a position they'll also give you a huge like let's say president gets the
rashtrapati Bhavan so rashtrapati Bhavan is what is not your salary but what is it
means for if you get into your position in addition to salary what is the extra benefit you get leave allowances travel
alliances dear answer lens that is different other benefits that you get that is called as both combination is
called as emoluments clear emoluments allowances and privileges off under that
write the list what all yay that means about whom president and governor
president and governor president and governor and you have a
huge list there they'll tell whatever was enjoyed by the governor general of India under so and so act everything they'll tell in second schedule B
second one speaker Deputy speaker
Deputy speaker of Lok Sabha
speaker Deputy speaker of Lok Sabha and legislative assembly
speaker Deputy speaker of Lok Sabha legislative assembly same point you put it which one
chairperson Deputy chairperson rajya Sabha legislative Council
fine because you know the basic point right at the national level Parliament you have two house Lok Sabha rajya Sabha state level not necessary but you may
have two houses what is it one is called as assembly second one is MLA mlc so what is the difference over the elected
was obviously there are still chapters to come best as of now you just remember that
and legislative Council the next one c a g
controller auditor general I think we read we wrote did we write some details about CAG
term what's up only what okay accounts audits we don't okay fine CAG then judges of Supreme
Court High Court next one judges of Supreme Court and high court
so for all these people they what do they get the salary what is their alliances extra benefits everything they
get is all mentioned in your second schedule mentioned means they'll give lot of links
Supreme Court and high court yeah that's your second schedule third schedule
so it's just a matter of fact we are writing third schedule what do you find in third schedule votes or affirmations of
both or affirmations of
votes or affirmations of again clarify the first difference what
do you mean by what what do you mean by affirmation then correct worth means something which is
naked in the name of religion or God affirmation means you can take it in the name of the Constitution itself we can
take it based on your what Atma sakshi conscience you may take it on the people of India whatever it is farmers
there is the worth and affirmation difference just clarify in margin both means taken in the name of religion or
God remembers a lot of people that is both
taken in the name of God or religion affirmation means non-religious that's it one word religious non-religious
so both are allowed so who's what's our affirmations of
under that yeah members of parliament State Legislature or first you write okay if you have
written it's fine members of parliament State Legislature yeah that means if you become an MP what
is the vote you take if you become an Emilia what is the worth you take members of parliament
and State Legislature votes or affirmations of a members of parliament and state legislature B
candidates contesting candidates contesting
that means if you want to file a nomination also you have to take care of candidates contesting elections of same
Parliament and State Legislature because first you will be a candidate then you make you may win you may not
win also so when you're a candidate when you file a nomination you should take a vote candidates contesting elections of
Parliament and State Legislature then after you win you take another worth then after winning again what you
may become Union or state Minister for that you have another worth that also is
mentioned Union or state minister Union minister or state minister
just see see continue next one Union or state minister
the next one CAG CAG is worth CAG
and then after that Supreme Court High Court
the judges of Supreme Court and high court that's your third schedule
right then fourth schedule
fourth schedule allocation of rajya Sabha seats
allocation of rajya Sabha seats allocation of rajya Sabha seats to the
states and duties allocation of rajya Sabha seats to the
states and duties that means on what basis are you allocating how much is it given all
those things details you will find there so like uttar Pradesh has so many rajya Sabha seats all those lists you will
find it there fine there is allocation of the rajya Sabha streets 12 States and UT then fifth schedule schedule five
yes number of seats is based on population both Lok Sabha as well as rajya Sabha
fifth schedule special Provisions for
special Provisions for scheduled tribe areas
that is wherever scheduled tribes are there for them we give special flowers remember a symmetric federalism we have
already mentioned schedule five special Provisions for the scheduled tribes areas in few States
for scheduled tribe areas in few States or which states so you can
write here is the list so you have totally 10 tests first MP
MP Maharashtra Rajasthan
madhya Pradesh Maharashtra Gujarat
Rajasthan four that is one group then Himachal Pradesh
because Himachal Pradesh means tribal area Himachal Pradesh then another five of central India obviously where do you
find tribes more other states in Central India 's
Andhra Pradesh so totally ten chattisgarh
jharkhand odisha Telangana
Andhra Pradesh okay so totally 10 states have this
special provisions sir why I have already told you the reason because schedule tribes different
cultures geographically different so many issues are there hence special same
extension but in North East Sixth schedule all right
sixth schedule special Provisions for tribal areas in
special provisions for special Provisions for tribal areas in
special Provisions for the tribal areas in Northeast northeast states like
not the entire Northeast special Provisions for the tribal areas in Northeast is like what they call it
as famously amtm Assam
Assam meghalaya tripura mizoram
amtm Assam
sir why Northeast tribes only they are different because sir anyhow you have mentioned
why are you treating Northeast right differently I have already told you the reasons because Northeast British had deliberately kept
out culturally racially it is a completely different tribe compared to the tribes of central India hence a
little more special Provisions which is obviously provided by the Constitution itself
right details of course there are separate chapters for it we don't these are all just summing up so many other chapters are there we'll discuss the
details there then seventh schedule which we have already mentioned what is seven schedule
correct seventh schedule distribution of legislative subjects between Center and
State seventh schedule distribution of
legislative subjects between Union and State
this we did not write the just mention the list if you want because anyhow details we have already mentioned remember Union list will make loss
only Parliament State list only state legislature concurrent both residuary
only Parliament but residual list you do you find it in the seven schedule you don't find the list I have already
told you if you have if you if you want open your Constitution happens you'll only find Union list stateless concurrent list residual subjects
whichever is unallocated automatically is gone to home Parliament
you don't find explicit list there like Union list up you you open it and scroll you will find Hundred subjects number
one number two number three they'll mention like that then straight list 1 to 61 you will find then concurrent list
1 to 52 you'll find but residual list you don't have because list that number you have you don't have
it is automatically assumed Zoom got it that's why you don't find it
let's do a list in seven schedule if I just mentioned that if you want Union list straight list concurrentless
residuary subjects because you need to have that small
clarities about what is there in the Constitution what is not there
Union list State list concurrent list and residuary subjects this is your seventh then eighth
languages recognized by the Constitution it is not official language languages
recognized formally recognized languages recognized by the Constitution
languages recognized by the Constitution right so just here we raise lot of
discussion involved because there are so many types here first point you clarify original Constitution had 14 languages
or had recognized 14 languages 1950 original Constitution had
recognized original Constitution had recognized 14
1 4 languages at present time when you have at present there are 22
at present there are 22. fine so just mention which is there some
few you may get confused that's why I will just mention that English is not mentioned remember English is an
official language we'll write all those things English is not mentioned Sanskrit is mentioned
Nepali mentioned because Nepali you may get confused manipuri
yes Nepali mentioned manipuri mentioned
fine first of all Hindi Tamil Telugu Marathi all those things are obvious then last
one four newly added languages are for newly added languages newly in this
is not now 2007 May there was other the last ones four newly added languages
are Bodo spoken by Bodo tribes which state Assam spoken by I mean four newly added
languages are Bodo Bihar maithili
santali santal tribes in so many areas even the president speaks mother tongue
is santali santali and dongri dongri is spoken by people in parts of Kashmir
Jammu Kashmir dongri Bodo maithili santali dongri konkani is
also mentioned this company a lot of people feel it's not pension konkani is mentioned
spoken in parts of Goa Maharashtra some parts of Karnataka there is a demand
going on that there's a language called as Tulu which is spoken in parts of Karnataka they also want to include that
now you have to understand first point there is no basis what is the basis on which
you you mention a language here sort of on what basis do you mention a language here on what basis you don't mention there is no Clarity in the Constitution
please mention that there is no basis to include a means on
what basis there is no parameter there is no parameter
mentioned in the Constitution there is no parameter mentioned in
Constitution there is no parameter mentioned in
Constitution for a language to be included in each schedule
there is no parameter mentioned in the Constitution for a language to be included in eighth schedule
then how do you include it it is included by amending Constitution under 368 using special majority
it is included by amending Constitution that means if you want to include
anybody any language included by amending Constitution
under article 3 State just write U slash a under article 368 which majority special
majority that means no need of ratification only special majority
using special majority so this is your eighth schedule how do you include a language on what basis or
including a language then that's why it is a languages formally recognized by
the Constitution but what if they ask what is the official language of the government of India
that's your next one clarify a fish this is not mentioned in eight schedule these are various languages are there we are
just clarifying everything official languages for the subheading official languages
official languages according to the original Constitution
or according to the Constitution according to the Constitution English or
you can say Hindi and English according to the Constitution
Hindi and English are official languages of the Union government
Hindi and English are official languages of the Union
government clear but there was a check clarify that
original Constitution had mentioned
original Constitution had mentioned that English will remain official language
for 15 years one five original Constitution had mentioned that
English will remain official language only for 15 years one five
only for one five fifteen years means my love till each other then 1965 remember what is
our official language in simple words official language whatever the government of India does it
should be mentioned in both English as well as Hindi language why do you have upsc papers only in Hindi and English
because it's the official language fine for example whatever the parliament passes Allah it should be mentioned in
both English as well as Hindi when whatever is government of India writes a letter or communicate something
to let's say a government of Punjab or government of Tamil Nadu it should write in both what Hindi as well as English in
simple words whatever editions acts anything passed by the parliament government of India or Supreme anything it should be there in Hindi Supreme
Court is different believe that in general legislature and executive Hindi and English in English only for 15 years
but what happened later by 1965 1960s it's a lot of anti-hindi movements
started in in the South especially led by Tamil Nadu because they felt that actually English is more because if you
compare to the South one here you may feel that language all those things but South is different South in general most
of the people don't even know how to speak maybe if they have watched in the movies we can have even if you look at
meals in we can converse overall fluency will not get because it's obvious mother tongues will be
different hence a lot of vegetations happen you may not feel by here there in Tamil Nadu people have
cut the slit their hands and written slogans in blood saying don't talk about
Hindi here so anti-hindi movement it was very very strong even now it is there but in 1960s and 70s it was huge huge
movements fine so through that level it had happened so all the slogans were used to be written on blood saying never
ever talk about Hindi in South to that level it has happened obviously then what happened that's the next Point
Parliament has passed Parliament has passed official languages
Act 1963. Parliament has passed official languages
act 1963 underline the ACT a fish look at the name itself clearly
says official languages Act 1963. and continued English as official
language that means along with Hindi Past official languages Act of 1963 and
continued English as official language this is for whom government of India
Union government official language of the Union government
clear that is one point that is government of India but you also have state governments and what about them sir next Point official languages of the
state governments official language of the state government is determined by State
Legislature
official languages of the state government is determined by state legislature so
they will take the call mostly it will be the regional language in some northeast states Regional language plus
English is also there it's left to them ultimately you can't pay attention every every States in general who takes a call
State Legislature takes the call official languages the state government clear
no no no no absolutely not necessary in fact it is not there in most of the South States neither English nor Hindi
only Regional languages is the official language in Northeast It's a combination I'm not
sure I think in um izoram I think nagaland English is also there
you can't buy at each and every state obviously but Regional language plus English in mostly the Northeast in South
only Regional language no English no Hindi in most of the central Indian States it's I think it will be a
combination of Marathi and Hindi Gujarati in Hindi might be or maybe only Gujarati also it might vary also or
maybe only Marathi also it may vary that's what every state has its own issues but State Legislature will take
the call as the point okay because Constitution doesn't clarify it because you can't mention for everybody
the next one is your there is a concept of national language so what is the national language then
national language according to the Constitution according to any acts there is no
national language national language
officially that means neither in the Constitution or in any act nor in any rules national language there is no
national language for India there is no national language for India
then there is a concept called have you heard classical language
this is broadly to understand what are the different types of languages huh
no no there's no limit nothing like that classical language
what do you mean by a classical language look at the word itself classic normally when you get the word classicalism
classic means always understand old traditional it's a classical the classical music
they tell classical music something which has been staying for a very very long time classical dance like
bharatanatyam the body of Odyssey and all the classical dancers that is what you've got hindustani music carnatic
music so classical means old then what do you mean by classical language then languages which have a very very old
origin very old script very old picture means poetry books and all those things
that's what you call it as Classical Languages clear mention that first those
languages which have an ancient tradition ancient history
those languages which have
those languages which have ancient which have ancient history or tradition
those languages which have ancient history or tradition like what like
lemon let's let's write the reason for parameter like old script
like old script means your main script Lippy old script literature
literature Etc old script literature Etc
means at least some thousand thousand five hundred two thousand years like that where is it mentioned it is not
mentioned in Constitution this is not something which is only eight schedule languages are mentioned in Constitution bus and official language
it is not mentioned in Constitution then who gives it
it is not mentioned in Constitution it is a status given by ministry of art and
culture government of India it is a status given by
ministry of art and culture government of India
status given by ministry of art and culture government of India
fine and then how many are there then at present six languages foreign
six languages of course the mother of all languages in
India Sanskrit then all the South languages
Tamil kannada Telugu Malayalam
Sanskrit Tamil kannada Telugu
Malayalam and then the Recently Added recently in the sense the last one added wadia
Hindi is not there because Hindi is considered as a very recently evolved
languages of 150 200 years and these are all languages of what 1500 2000 years
hence In classical language lists it is not mentioned clear because the ancient links you
don't have find six Classical Languages then so then what are the benefits then why do
you have to give it then benefits include benefits include
additional financial help that means government of India will give
you more money benefits include additional financial help to conduct Research into the
history research on the language just write like that additional financial help
to conduct research on the language or on the history whatever
research on the history fine and of course they'll do so many things
they'll give you they'll establish the benches and all those things but that's the core additional Financial of course it's a recognition of your it's a kind
of what social Prestige and all whatever those things it's a pride in the history and all those aspects but basically
these are the various language so next time when you get confused with feasible difference
classical at least have a broad idea fine so that's why I mentioned everything
huh benefits the moment you mention any language in eight schedule and next time
in the giveaway when they ask for you any kind of benefits this kind of a help or something you should give it to them
it will become an obligation on you
no again when you make it as a national language what will happen then they'll tell all the major votes should be
mentioned only in that everything it will get impacted only acts everything should be mentioned here that language
will be given priority in exams only that language should be spoken what do you call as this in any exam you write
qualifying exam it will be only that Parliament may only that you should say everything will go to that
yes yes that issue has always been going on the input that's what I told from the South if you look at it it's called as
the Hindi of imposition from the north if you look at it it's called as a spread of Hindi language it's a
perspective from here you look at it we are just asking to spread it so that
everybody speaks it from the south what does it look like that's what we are telling now it's called as imposition is
from the south it's the perspective you look at it fine
yeah so that is eight schedule broadly these only these were mentioned were original Constitution now providing
newly added schedules what are the newly added ones newly
added schedules
ninth schedule ninth schedule
article 31 capital B
article 31 capital B
article 31 capital V what do you mean by it again I mentioned
added by that means which Amendment added by First Amendment just write first CA
in capital first constitutional amendment added by first constitutional amendment
1950 one this was a question also in problems
first 9th schedule was added by which amendment and obviously who was the pm at that time the year itself says so
that was a question also I think 2020 yeah 2019 question claims question five what does it include lastly right
because 31b again we'll discuss in detail in your fundamental rights chapter as of now just write the broader point it includes
those loss it includes those laws
of Parliament and straight legislature
it includes those loss of Parliament
those laws of Parliament and State Legislature which are
which are immune to judicial review immune immune
Judiciary cannot question it those laws of the parliament and State Legislature
which are immune to judicial review these are simple words Judiciary cannot
question it what are those laws so many details are there we'll discuss it recently you might have heard jharkhand wanted to
implement 77 reservation fine so that they want to add it in nine
schedule but they can't add it only who can add it Constitution comment karna and Constitution who can amend not the
states Parliament so those are all details will give it to let's talk about it in
fundamental rights chapter because for that parallel you have to understand what do you mean by reservation there is something called a zindra Sani case
vertical reservation horizontal reservation sub categorization all those
reservation in promotion then we'll go to this as of now just remember those
last passed by Parliament and state legislature if you don't want Judiciary to question it just go write the law
here when you will find how many as of now there are somewhere around 200 if you have app you just open it and see you
will have around 285 laws mentioned there those 285 laws in simple words
Judiciary cannot question sir why do they do it because to keep it
away from Judiciary so that they should not check it sir is it so easy it's not so easy there's so many details that we
will discuss there is something called as IR call okay there is something called as doctrine of essence test uh dual test so many are there but details
for that again as I said you need fundamental rights Basics okay that is ninth schedule then tenth schedule
10th schedule in simple words it is called as what
10th schedule
anti-diffection law right so what do you mean by defection
the moment you say defection means you are changing the priority from which you are elected
to another party you're shifting your party that is simply called as defection so anti defection means what to tackle
that they have passed this law so remember the Maharashtra crisis going on is anti-refaction law so what happened
what is that all those things again you have a separate chapters for it will deal with it how did they add it added
by 50 seconds EA 1985. this was also a film's question
added by 52nd Constitutional Amendment CA 1985
52nd Constitutional Amendment 1985 then 11th schedule
11. in simple words panchayats
panchayats added by 73rd Amendment 1992.
panchayats added by 73rd Amendment 1992.
73rd Amendment 1992. then 12th schedule
12th spelling is a bit change yeah
12th schedule municipalities
12th schedule municipalities 74th Amendment the same 1992.
74th Amendment 1992.
74th Amendment 1992.
yes so these are totally 12 schedules which you have it in the Constitution as of now when that is the end of the
Constitution now in the big overall what you have something called a smarts of the constitution for the heading now
what are the various parts you don't have to add each and every part broadly
parts of the Constitution means take it as word chapters
parts of the Constitution Al Constitution had 22 parts
original Constitution had 22 chapters
original Constitution had 22 parts at present it is 25
so then how many technically speaking three but it's not actually like that
original Constitution had 22 parts so as of now much 25 so what are they clarify below part 7
and part 9 of the Constitution part 7 chapter 7 and chapter 9.
part 7 and part 9 of the Constitution were abolished
so you don't have part seven now partnering again that came back we'll write it part seven part nine were abolished by
seventh Constitutional Amendment 1956 survives it you'll get it in your next
chapter Union and territories abolished by seventh Constitutional
Amendment 1956. then 42nd Constitutional Amendment 1976.
which is famously called as what mini Constitution 42nd Amendment
1976 added two parts
for the Second Amendment 1976 added two parts
what is it part 4 A
fundamental Duty part 14 a tribunals
part Fourier fundamental Duty part 14 a criminals so what is terminal as of now
take it as they function like codes that's why it is called as
quasi judicial bodies quasi means what we already discussed what is quasi
partial so quasi judicial means what then partially they function like code what
is that that again and we'll understand when you discuss judiciary when part 14 a terminals
that is by 42nd Amendment then add a next one 73rd Amendment 1992.
73rd Amendment 1992 again they brought it back part 9
panchayats 73rd always means what panchayats 73rd Amendment 1992 Part 9 panchayats so
whatever vacant space were there they filled it by this panchayats
foreign 1992.
part 9 panchayats then 74th
Part 9 capital A like how we have written here same 9 a so what is 74 just
now we wrote municipalities
municipalities
Part 9 yeah municipalities then part nine B capital B
part 9B Cooperative societies
part 9B Cooperative societies
r nine B Cooperative societies
yes same thing 368 only you are if you want to include any new schedule
okay these are the new chapters and then of course what is part one part two anyhow we will discuss that as that's
what is here we'll have to start with part one then part two then go to part three fundamental rights and all those things that is parts then other factors
you have providing features borrowed from other countries
where what features did we borrow from which country features borrowed from other countries
features borrowed from other countries
typical facts I'll just tell you you have to note down first one government of India act 1935
government of India act 1935 what did we borrow from that
okay first one federalism Federal structure
federalism government of India 1935 first one
federalism then judiciary
Judiciary governor Judiciary Supreme Court High Court
WhatsApp Concepts that is not called as Supreme Court which was called as federal court but Judiciary governor
Public Service commissions the upsc all those things created by 1935 Act only
Public Service commissions schedule
Public Service commissions seventh schedule whatever you just that that also is inspired from the same
seven schedule emergency provisions seventh schedule emergency provisions
Etc so these are all so many are there but these are the broader ones seven schedules
emergency Provisions Etc this is 1935 act then from UK Britain
obviously Britain what is the major feature we borrowed parliamentary system
UK parliamentary system rule of law we'll discuss that in your
fundamental rights chapter rule of law professor AV dicey rule of law then three
cabinet system means how should the cabinet function is a cabinet system
cabinet system then bicameralism so bicameralism by means by means what two
so two houses in UK you have two houses of common house of lots same concept you put it in India Lok Sabha Raja Sabha
bicameralism by cameralism c-a-m-e r-a-l-a-sm means
two houses bicameralism single citizenship within India this is like even in UK you are only considered as
citizen of UK because in UK If you have heard there are four parts one is England Northern Ireland Scotland and
Wales four major kind of regions you are only considered as citizen of UK you are
not considered a citizen of Scotland description of England it's there's nothing like that that's called as
single citizenship fine then what you call us is
parliamentary privilege that is if you become an MP you'll get lot of special powers that concept is borrowed from UK
parliamentary privilege privilege means you know treatment VAP
kind of a treatment then writ remember have you heard writ concept that we'll understand article 32 Rich
writ and then uh yeah broadly the same then
how the law is passed how many are there but that's fine broadly then what did we borrow from U.S
us means always understand the core two things one is judicial related second one is the core in point one word
fundamental rights U.S the most important fundamental rights
fundamental rights to Independence of judiciary
independence of judiciary three judicial review
judicial review then impeachment of president
impeachments in simple words remove how the president can be removed from his power
impeachment of president then removal of Supreme Court High Court
judges how to remove them removal survive we use the word
impeachment for president removal for others we'll discuss that when the when we discuss the topic removal of Supreme
Court High Court judges office of Vice President
of ease of Vice President so that itself is inspired from U.S
clear then Canada
strong Center strong Center
so quasi-federal system actually we are borrowed from Canada strong Center then too residuary Powers
with Center actually in U.S residue powers are with whom States you canonize its Center we
inspired from Canada residuary Powers with Center
then advisory jurisdiction it means in simple words president will ask the advice of Supreme
Court in various issues advisory jurisdiction of Supreme Court
advisory jurisdiction of Supreme Court each and everything will get discussed this is just a overall Factor just have
to keep the treatment obviously then appointment of Governor will be right
appointment of Governor by Center
appointment of Governor by Center that concept is also borrowed from Canada from Canada itself borrowed from Britain
because Britain was ruling Canada also from them we got inspired appointment of Governor by Center
that is Canada then France France is obvious very easy equality Liberty fraternity Republic
French Revolution equality Liberty
fraternity Republic
Liberty fraternity Republic that is France USSR
means if you don't know basic idea there was a concept now from 1917 Russian Revolution till 1990 till USSR it was a
group USSR means not just Russia Russia plus around 20 countries today what you call as Ukraine Hungary
all of them were part of a group called as USSR USSR wins Union of Soviets
Socialist Republic in simple words Russia was the core plus 20 countries around were there entire east Europe
more or less entire used to Europe were all part of this then everybody got separated they became separate countries
again and Russia became another country that is called as technically we keep calling because disintegration of USSR that
we'll understand maybe maybe when world history happens or sometimes they'll tell you cold war all those things
concept was there there okay so from USSR what did we borrow fundamental Duty and justice
fundamental duties Justice
and justice then Germany Weimar Germany they call it
as Weimar innocence Germany I mean 1930s 1940s Germany one Vemma I just write
Germany Germany suspension of fundamental rights during
emergency like how Indira Gandhi misused during emergency that concept suspension of
fundamental rights during emergency
suspension of fundamental rights during emergency there is um Germany then
or else you have friends you have written Germany of written Ireland
Ireland dpsp the very famous concept Ireland dpsp
election of president removal of President is from U.S election of President is here
election of president nomination of rajya Sabha MP means the
Sachin Tendulkar the American the nomination months nomination of rajya Sabha MP election of
president nomination of rajya Sabha MP
not election election is different one then South Africa
not that this South Africa because when we got inspired it was this British ruled South Africa then the represents
of Africa is independent South Africa which happened the Nelson Mandela in 1993 that's a different one 1948 means
48 49 British South Africa South Africa whatever borrowed election of rajya
Sabha MPS election of rajya Sabha MP
then amendment of constitution how to amend a
constitution is inspired from them Amendment 368 one amendment of
Constitution than Australia
Australia was also ruled by British so obviously more or less we inspired from British only again joint sitting that
means there are instances when Lok Sabha Raja Sabha sits together joint sitting
to freedom of trade and commerce joint sitting
then freedom of trade and commerce
freedom of trade and commerce then concurrent list so some some provisions of concurrent
list is borrowed from here concurrent list more or less Provisions related to
federalism to an extent is borrowed from Canada to an extent is borrowed from Australia because both are big countries
and I've already told you the logic when you have big country normally you will have what system federalism because managing them will be difficult then
Japan procedure established by law there is a
concept called procedure established by law you will understand when we discuss article 21 and then there is a concept
called due process of law Japan procedure established by law
so did we write 11 countries yeah so broadly these are the features borrowed from various countries
did we minnesotanic I think we have mentioned it's more nervous everything we have mentioned
even our written Constitution concept Preamble concept is borrowed from us
correct but also if you want you can write Preamble concept is borrowed from us
Preamble concept the what you discussed just now is borrowed from us
even written Constitution angle also
right and then so this and then as I said various features includes of course ours is one of the lengthiest
Constitution of the world we all know that because it's a single Constitution for entire country population is very huge historically in
the 1935 impact so many are there and few criticism broad criticisms of constitutional you can just read let's
sum up that and then we'll continue with next chapter tomorrow broadly right criticisms of Constitution
broad ones will not write the entire details criticisms of constitution broadly water it
first one carbon copy of 1935 acts because it's a huge huge impact of 1935.
because remember when when British passed the 1935 act it was the lengthiest Act passed by the British
Parliament till then imagine British Parliament entire one carbon copy of 1935 Act
means so much of things they have just copy pasted that is one two
is obviously what bag of burrowings that means you have just copied it from
various countries it's a bag of borrowings just now you wrote the list that's why
it is called as what bagger that means what is new you have just copied from various countries is the criticism but
what is the counter for that even in the in the words of ambedkar itself the counter is that when by the time we were
making the Constitution 1948 59 49 15 most of the European countries have
already made their constitution whatever you call it as all these things so that means there was a clarity about what
should be there in the Constitution what should not be there so then what these people did
whatever should be there whatever should be there should not be there a Clarity is there so just take it check if it is
good for India if it's good for India edit changes leave it
that's the point that means there is no need to or that while we were making the Constitution there was nothing
drastically new to be added to any Constitution all we had to do was we
should understand what is needed in our constitution what is not needed so just add it
that's the point called as bag of borings to counter that clear then next one
it is ungandian in nature and gandhian
means what obviously the name it says is it does not reflect the core gandhian values because I've already mentioned
values or what decentralized grammar swaraj so self-employment he was against
industrialization he wanted a trustership model all those things you don't find it broadly few references are
there but in general it is not based on core gandhian values it is largely inspired by the value system of ambedkar
nehru Patel and all those things who are mostly in spite of the western values the Liberty equality change in the
society that kind of a one that's why a lot of people said it is means it doesn't at the core reflect the
gandhian values clear then it is an Indian
that means it doesn't it is not based on Indian values I remember in in your book itself you
will find that very famous criticism which I've already told you that the Indians expected the music of a sitar
but what we got is the music of a guitar means we expected that Indian constitution
should be based on Indian values but we got the Western valleys is the criticism but how can you counter it it is not
based on what which values did you borrow from which country it is based on is the value good or bad
did the value bring a positive change in society or not and obviously those values were globally accepted values
then also even now also the values of equality Liberty just is not just Global
values then even today they are the globally accepted values also hence it
is valid it should stay and you should largely say yes sir we are not denying that the values because most of our
constitution makers obviously where were they educated they were all educated in Cambridge Oxford this is the mostly invest
educated only of course they are inspired by those values and at that time West was the developed
one so we wanted to become like them or that kind of a progress and inspiration
is there no doubt about it clear that is another tradition and then another one
it is it is Paradise of lawyers means it is too much
of in-depth too many technical words it's a paradise for lawyers
means too many keywords too many technical words and what is a criticism is that a common man can't understand this
you need to study so much of things to understand the Constitution and in fact remember it is not exactly the statement
but remember the French dictator called as a French ruler Napoleon Bonaparte he had
once said that the law and the Constitution should be so simple that a common man should be
able to carry it in his pocket and easily understand it now you can't carry it first probably in the pocket
also Indian you can carry it in an app now that's a different issue but you can't carry it in the pocket one physically two a common man cannot
easily understand it also because too many technical words too many interpretations
so hence what is the point when you have too many interpretations it will become a case it will be few becomes a case who
is the beneficiary where is the beneficiary that's why it is called as lawyers Paradise but it's a
give and take that's why as I told I feel like that many criticians are there sir averaging criticized that the
Indian constitution doesn't have a core set of values It's a combination khichdi you have Indian values also your Western
values also have Gandhi and also have nehru also ambedkar also Patel also it has become a khichdi that's the
criticism but it is also a good thing because it is trying to address the diversity
also because if it is only western Indians May reject it if it is only Indian it may not suit the modern modern
issues so they have tried to somehow balance it which is a buyer which is a positive also which is a negative also it's a
combination clear so these are broadly the criticisms of Constitution as a whole
sir what do you mean by judicial review we'll discuss it because separate chapters are there fundamental Rich chapter we will discuss in simple words
take judicial review means Judiciary will question the decisions taken by legislature and executive that is as
simple as that right then I thought we can start with Union and territories but I think it's
already done and so many facts we wrote so many things we discussed are part one of the Constitution which deals with
Article 1 to article four that will start from tomorrow remember like for example there is a demand to make
European to four as I've already told how do you do it there's a demand to create wither amount
of Maharashtra how do you do it there's a demand to whatever so many like let's say remember that uh
what is his name had dinner recently a kind of fast in uh
kind of hunger whatever you call it as in ladakh he wants to make ladakh into a
separate State how do you do it all those procedures we'll discuss that tomorrow
yeah yeah any doubts please ask or not don't ask tomorrow anything
is fine
