Historian Advocates Adding "Federal" to the Indian Preamble

A historian, Sugata Bose, wants to add the word "federal" to the beginning of India's rules.

He thinks this is better than getting rid of other words like "secular" and "socialist."

Some people in the government want to remove those words.

Bose says that adding "federal" would make the rules better.

He is worried that some parts of India might feel like they aren't as important.

He believes that a strong India needs to share power fairly among different regions.

He believes that centralizing power could lead to problems, and that supporting federalism is important for democracy.
