NEW DELHI : The University Grants Commission (UGC) has requested the higher educational institutions to organize activities as part of celebrations of Constitution Day 2023 on November 26.
“As you are aware, Constitution Day, also known as Samvidhan Divas, is celebrated in India on 26th November every year to commemorate the adoption of the constitution of India. Every year, a number of activities aimed at highlighting and reiterating the values and principles enshrined in the constitution are organised as part of the celebration,” said UGC in an official notice.
Talking about the activities, the commission said that reading the Preamble to the Constitution is an important part of the celebration and it reaffirms our commitment to uphold the ideology of the constitution. “A provision has also been made on MyGov portal to 'Read the preamble' online and download a certificate,” it said.
The UGC has suggested that apart from reading, the HEIs may organise other activities such as talks or webinars on constitutional values and fundamentals of the Indian constitution. It asked them to organise the activities in a “befitting manner”.
The colleges and universities can also upload details of the activities organised on the day along with photos and videos on the University Activity Monitoring Portal (UAMP).
