Preamble as a derivative of the Objectives Resolution:

The historic Objectives Resolution envisioned the sovereign republic of India, as a union of states that derives its power & authority from the people. It also delved into aspects of the division of powers between the states and the Union. It guaranteed and secured social, economic and political justice; equality of status and opportunities and equality before law; and fundamental freedoms – of speech, expression, belief, faith, worship, vocation, association and action – subject to law and public morality. Besides, it assured provision of safeguards for minorities, backward classes and tribals as well.
