Modern India: Framing the Constitution

Question:

"There cannot be any divided loyalty". Name the Constituent Assembly member who said this.

Options:

Vallabhbhai Patel

N.G. Ranga

Govind Ballabh Pant

J. Nagappa

Correct Answer:

Govind Ballabh Pant

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → Govind Ballabh Pant

Govind Ballabh Pant argued that in order to become loyal citizens people had to stop focusing only on the community and the self: For the success of democracy one must train himself in the art of self-discipline. In democracies one should care less for himself and more for others. There cannot be any divided loyalty. All loyalties must exclusively be centred round the State. If in a democracy, you create rival loyalties, or you create a system in which any individual or group, instead of suppressing his extravagance, cares nought for larger or other interests, then democracy is doomed.
