Gurgaonites, do you know your fundamental duties?

In all probability, no. And thus, Gurgaon administration has ordered educational institutions, administrative offices and other places to put up flex boards listing out the 10 fundamental duties as citizens.

Gurgaonites, do you know your fundamental duties? Chief judicial magistrate of Gurgaon, Narender Singh, talks about the initiative

Fundamental rights we all know, but what about our fundamental duties? Gurgaon administration is now taking steps to create awareness about the same among citizens, and has thus ordered educational institutions, administrative offices and other offices to put up flex boards listing out the fundamental duties as citizens. 

Chief judicial magistrate (CJM) of Gurgaon, Narender Singh, has also written to the deputy commissioner on the same.

“It has been unanimously agreed upon in a meeting with the administration that we are responsible for imbibing a sense of responsibility among citizens. The flex boards, listing out the fundamental duties, should be installed at all government and private institutions, particularly schools,” explained the CJM.

The district administration has been directed to bear the expenses and responsibility of installing the flex boards before December-end.

The CJM also asked the district education officer to plan activities in schools and colleges — parliamentary debates, painting competitions and other events — to foster general legal awareness about our Constitution.  

“This is indeed a positive initiative —people must be made aware of their duties as envisaged under the Constitution, especially children. But children must also be made aware of their rights before talking about duties,” said Arijit Adhikary, state coordinator of Bal Bigul, CRY-supported child rights’ networking initiative, in Haryana.
