'Samvidhan Manastambh' to be established at Samajwadi Party office for keeping copy of Constitution: Akhilesh Yadav

today, on July 26, the "Constitution Manastambh" will be established and a copy of the Constitution installed so that it always shines a light on social justice, the Samajwadi Party chief said.

Lucknow: A "Samvidhan Manastambh" will be established for keeping a copy of the Constitution at the Samajwadi Party headquarters in Lucknow, party chief Akhilesh Yadav said on Friday.

In a post in Hindi on X, Yadav said, "The Samajwadi Party has taken a humble decision to celebrate 'Reservation Day' as the 'Foundation Day' of 'Constitution Manastambh' because, on this day, Shrimant Maharaj Rajarshi Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj of Kolhapur started reservation by implementing the 'reservation' envisioned by Mahatma Jyotiba Phule in his Kolhapur state." The spirit of social justice was implemented on this day in the form of reservation, which later became the basic foundation of ensuring social justice as a people's right in the Constitution through the efforts of BR Ambedkar, and also the basic principle of establishing democracy in the country, he said.

In this context, what can be a more historic occasion than the establishment of the "Constitution Manastambh", because the biggest and most effective example is the implementation of the idea in its true form, he added.

That is why today, on July 26, the "Constitution Manastambh" will be established and a copy of the Constitution installed so that it always shines a light on social justice, the Samajwadi Party chief added.
