India is celebrating the 74 th Republic Day on 26-01-2023. AIBDPA extends very warm greetings to all of you on this happy occasion. While we are all proud of the progress India has made during all these 76 years of Independence, we are equally concerned about the attacks on the very foundation of the constitution. It is not a secret that there are concerted efforts from the ruling class themselves to change the basic structure of the constitution. We are witnessing handing over of national assets to the corporate in the name of National Monetisation Pipeline. Gautham Adani has jumped in to the second richest in the world. At the same time the gap between the rich and poor has widened alarmingly. Challenges are plenty before us and we have to affirm to continue the fight for the protection of the constitution and against the attacks on the people, workers and pensioners.
