Nations Must Unite to Protect Democracy and Constitutional Values: Revanth Reddy

Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has called for collective global efforts to protect democracy, uphold constitutional values and promote social justice. Addressing the concluding session of the Bharat Summit in Hyderabad, he said a worldwide struggle was underway between democratic principles and authoritarian tendencies. He asserted that safeguarding the Constitution and the rule of law remained their primary objectives. He also alleged that attempts were being made to weaken democratic institutions and concentrate power in the hands of a few.

Revanth Reddy expressed concern that although representatives from more than 70 countries had been invited to the summit, the Union government had cancelled visas for many of them. He stressed the need to protect the rights of all sections, including the poor, women, minorities and farmers. He said issues such as education, employment, healthcare and inflation affected people across the world. Stating that Rahul Gandhi was leading this struggle, he called on everyone to extend their support. He urged governments to prioritise the welfare of ordinary citizens rather than the interests of the wealthy.
