Union of India, (2019) 2 SCC 636 : 2018 SCC OnLine SC 2804 at page 640\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 emphasised that social justice remains a touchstone of our nation building. The Hon&#8217;ble President spoke on the subject of justice and particularly social justice in the following words:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">\u201cIn the Preamble, <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">justice is not seen as unidimensional<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. It is viewed as having implications across political, economic and social spheres. Political justice implies the equal participation of all adults in the political process and the just formulation and implementation of laws. Economic justice implies the ultimate eradication of poverty, equal opportunities to earn a livelihood, and fair wages. As such the expansion of economic, entrepreneurship and job opportunities are among examples of economic justice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Given the diverse history of our people, and given imbalances and hierarchies that have sometimes marked our past, <i>social justice remains a touchstone of our nation building<\/i>. At the simplest level, it implies the removal of societal imbalances and the harmonisation of rival claims and needs of different communities and groups. <i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Social justice is about providing equal opportunities<\/span><\/i>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Such a conceptualisation of justice was valid in 1949 and broadly remains relevant today. Even so, the 21st century has brought new challenges. No doubt <i>the concept of justice<\/i> \u2014 political, economic and social \u2014 has a resilient core but it needs to be thought of in innovative ways. It <i>requires to be applied afresh to emerging situations \u2014 situations that may not have existed or been foreseen when our Constitution-framers were at work<\/i>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Insights from Legal Luminaries on India&#8217;s Guiding Light<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Constitution-Day-2023-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Constitution-Day-2023-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Constitution is our pole star and should guide us through light and darkness to reach our cherished ideals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">~ Justice Sri Krishna<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right; margin-bottom: 3%;\">Former Judge, Supreme Court of India<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Constitution-Day-2023-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Constitution-Day-2023-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe mainstay of our Country is the Constitution.
