The Preamble to the Constitution of India presents the principles of the Constitution and indicates the sources of its authority.[1] The preamble is based on the Objectives Resolution, which was moved in the Constituent Assembly by Jawaharlal Nehru on 13 December 1946 accepted on 22 January 1947 and adopted by the Constituent Assembly on 26 November 1949, coming into force on 26 January 1950, celebrated as the Republic Day of India, and was initially drafted by V. K. Krishna Menon.[2] Menon explicitly did not include the words "socialist" or "secular", after consultation with Nehru; the text was later amended during the Indian emergency by Indira Gandhi where the words "socialist", "secular" and "integrity" were added.[3]
