Predominantly music channel etc is chanting the mantra Aakhir Dil Hai Hindustani. To celebrate the 52nd year of India’s Republic Day, the channel is coming out with a special program Aapna Adhikar. The half-hour show, will be telecast on 26 Jan at 8:00 pm with a repeat on 27 Jan at 4:30 pm

Aapna Adhikar features some basic constitutional rights and their day-to-day applications, a company release says. The presenter of the show, Saagarika Soni, goes to the street asking people about their rights as defined in Indian Constitution.

Each answer and reaction is then reviewed by Khitish Mehta - an advocate in Mumbai High Court, who basically informs the viewers about the Indian Constitution and the importance of its being.

The release states that for most people the day is an occasion to gather in front of the tube to watch the traditional parade. But the channel wants to dig deep by getting the opinion of the experts

Khitish Mehta made the following remarks: “On 26 January in 1950 Indian people gave themselves a constitution, in which every person was given some basic rights. The first and foremost amongst these are the freedom of expression, under which people have the right to follow their own views and, if required, can talk against the state. People were given the right to profess any occupation – trade or business in any part of the country. But the most significant amongst these is the right against exploitation – which gave the people from backward class the equal rights to enjoy their freedom without fear.”

Apna Adhikar also teaches us that since it’s establishment in 1950, Indian Constitution has incorporated 82 amendments. One of these amendments is that the Indian state is bound to provide education to every Indian between the age group of 4-16. The Constitution, which happens to be the lengthiest in the world, also states that the government does not have the right to keep somebody arrested for more than 24 hours without trial.
