Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury expressed concern that the copies of the Constitution provided to lawmakers on the opening day of the new Parliament building did not include the words "secular" and "socialist" in its Preamble. He accused the government of making this change cleverly and questioned their intentions. Chowdhury wanted to raise the issue in Parliament but didn't get the opportunity. He emphasized the presence of these words while reading the Preamble in Parliament. MPs received various gifts on the new Parliament building's opening day, including a copy of the Constitution of India.
