"Merely observance of this day as a government function and disrespecting the spirit and essence of the Indian Constitution is a poor reflection on the state of affairs. The Constitution can be meaningfully celebrated when it ensures the inclusiveness and participation of all the public representatives. Reducing it to a government event is what we protested against. We had raised this issue two years ago and respect the Parliamentary democracy," Sharma said while addressing a press conference.
