In this chapter we ask some basic questions about the constitutional design of a democracy. Why do we need a constitution? How are the constitutions drawn up? Who designs them and in what way? What are the values that shape the constitutions in democratic states? Once a constitution is accepted, can we make changes later as required by the changing conditions?
One recent instance of designing constitution for a democratic state is that of the South Africa. We begin this chapter by looking at what happened there and how the South Africans went about this task of designing their constitution. Then we turn to how the Indian Constitution was made, what its foundational values are, and how it provides a good framework for the conduct of citizens’ life and that of the government.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. What is a constitution?
• The constitution is a set of written rules that are
accepted by all the people living together in a country.
• Constitution is the Supreme Law that determines the
relationship among people living in a territory(called
citizens) and also relationship between people and
government
4. South African Society
• The native people of South Africa were called as black.
(Population – ¾)
• Besides these group, there were people of mixed races who
were called ‘coloured and people migrated from India were
called Indian Migrants.
• The white rulers treated all non whites as inferior.
• They also don’t have the right to vote.

• An official policy of racial separation, discrimination and ill
treatment of blacks on the basis of skin colour was called
Apartheid
• The apartheid system was particularly oppressive for the blacks.
• They were forbidden from living in white areas.

• Trains, Buses, taxis, hotels, hospitals, schools and colleges, libraries
cinema halls, theatres, beaches, swimming pools public toilets were
all separate for the whites and blacks. This was called segregation
• They could not even visit the churches where the whites worshipped.
8. Fight against Apartheid
• Since 1950, the blacks, coloured and Indians fought against the
apartheid system.
• African National Congress (ANC) was the umbrella organization
that led the struggle against the policies of segregation.
• Several countries also denounced apartheid as unjust and racist.
• But the white government continued to rule by detaining,
torturing and killing thousands of black and coloured people.
9. Suppression of Freedom Movement
• The leader of ANC, Nelson Mandela was tried for treason by
the white South African government.
• He and seven other leaders were sentenced to life
imprisonment in 1964 for daring to oppose the apartheid
regime in his country.
• He spent the next 28 years in South Africa’s most dreaded
prison, Robben Island.

lifted.

the republic of South Africa was unfurled making the newly
born democracy in the world.
• The apartheid government came to an end, paving way for
the formation of a multi- racial government.
• Nelson Mandela became the first president of South Africa.
13. Towards a new Constitution
• After the emergence of the new democratic South Africa, Black
leaders appealed to fellow blacks to forgive the whites for the
atrocities they had committed while in power.
• They said let us build a new South Africa based on equality of all
races and men and women, on democratic values, social justice
and human Rights and draw up a constitution.
14. Designing of Constitution
• After long negotiations parties agreed to the principle of majority
rule and that one person and one vote.
• They also agreed to accept some basic rights for the poor and the
workers.
• The blacks agreed that majority would not be absolute.
• They also agreed that the majority would not take away the
property of the white minority
15. Why do we need constitution ? What does
constitution do?

power to take which decisions

what the rights of citizens are.
• It expresses the aspiration of the people about creating a good so society.
16. • It is not compulsory to be a democratic country if it

17. Making of Indian Constitution
The difficulties faced by Indian constituent Assembly:
• The making of a constitution for a huge and diverse country like India
was not an easy affair.
• Partition on the basis of religious difference.
• The merger of the princely state was a difficult task, because the
British had left it to the rulers of the princely states to decide whether
they want to merge with India or Pakistan or remain independent.
18. The path of constitution:
Factors contributed in making of constitution
‘Consensus about democracy’
• Our national movement was not merely a struggle against a foreign rule.
• It was also a struggle to rejuvenate our country and to transform our society and
politics.
• Motilal Nehru and eight other drafted a constitution in 1928.
• Indian National Congress Session held in 1931 at Karachi had dwelt on how
Independent India’s constitution should look like.
19. • The familiarity with political institutions of colonial rule also
helped develop an agreement over the institutional design.
• Provincial legislatures were not fully democratic
governments. But the experience gained by Indians in the
working of the legislative institutions proved to be very useful
for the country in setting up its own institutions.
20. Inspiration by other countries constitutions
• French Revolution – liberty, equality, democratic rights
• Russian Revolution – socialist society
• Bill of rights in the US – fundamental rights
• British constitution – parliamentary democracy
Indian leaders not simply imitating what others had done. At
each step they were questioning whether these things suited to
our constitution
21. Formation of the Constituent Assembly
Who were the makers of Indian constitution?
• The drafting of document called the constitution was done by
an Assembly of elected representatives called the Constituent
Assembly
• Elections were held in July 1946. Its total members were 389.
• Its first meeting was held in December 1946.
22. • Soon after, the country was divided into India and Pakistan,
the Constituent Assembly was also divided into Constituent
Assembly of India and that of Pakistan.
• The Constituent Assembly that wrote the Indian Constitution had
299 members.
• The Assembly adopted the constitution on 26th November 1949
but it came into effect on 26th January 1950.
• To mark this day we celebrate January 26th as Republic Day every
year
23. Acceptance of Constitution even after 50 Years
1.The constitution does not reflect the views of its members alone. It
expresses a broad consensus of its time.
• Over the last half a centaury, several groups have questioned some
provisions of the constitution. But no large social group or political
party has ever questioned the legitimacy of the constitution itself.
24. 2.Constitutional Assembly represented the people of India.
• It was elected mainly by the members of the existing provincial
legislatures
• This ensured a fair geographical share of members from all the
regions of the country
25. 3.The Assembly was dominated by the Indian national congress,
the party that led India’s freedom struggle.
• But the congress itself included a variety of political groups and
opinions.
• The Assembly represented members from different language
groups, castes, classes, religions and occupations.
26. 4.Finally the manner in which the constitution Assembly work:
• The constitutional Assembly worked in a systematic, open and
constitutional manner:
• First the basic principles were decided and agreed upon.
• Then Drafting committee chaired by Dr. B.R Ambedkar prepared
a draft constitution for discussion.
27. Deliberation and discussion
• The members deliberated for 114 days spread over three years.
• Every document presented and every word spoken in the
constitution Assembly has been recorded and preserved.
• These are called ‘Constituent Assembly Debate’
• When printed, these debates are in 12 bulky volumes.
• These are used to interpret the meaning of the constitution
28. The dream and promises of great leaders
• Many Indian great leaders and freedom fighters often expressed their
opinions and ideas were also included
• Example: Mahatma Gandhi was not a member of the
constitutional Assembly.
• Yet there were many members who followed his vision
• Years ago, in his magazine Young India in 1931, he had spelt out what
he wanted the constitution to do.
34. Can constitution be amended with the changing time?
• Those who drafted Indian constitution felt that it has to be in
accordance with people’s aspiration and changes in the society.
• They did not see it as a sacred, static and unalterable law
• So, they made provisions to incorporate changes from time to
time. These changes are called are called constitutional
amendments
35. Institutional Design:
• Like any other constitution, the Indian constitution lays down a
procedure for choosing persons to govern the country.
• It defines who will have how much power to take which
decisions.
• It puts limits to what the government can do.
