Insights on Constitutional Values

In his keynote address, Sh. Ramesh Kushwaha captivated the audience with his insights into the core values of the Indian Constitution. He emphasized that while citizens are often aware of their Fundamental Rights, it is equally vital to remember and uphold our Fundamental Duties.

He urged the future lawyers in the audience to become guardians of the Constitution, ensuring that justice is not just a concept, but a reality for every citizen, regardless of their social standing.
