Preamble 'not changeable', but was 'changed' in 1976 during Emergency, says Jagdeep Dhankhar

Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar stated that the Preamble is the 'seed' of the Constitution and 'not changeable'. His remarks followed the RSS's call to review 'socialist' and 'secular' in the Preamble, added during the Emergency. Opposition parties criticized the RSS's stance. An RSS-linked magazine defended the review, aiming to restore the Constitution's 'original spirit'.
