Stating that ‘The Republican Ethic’ is an invaluable collection of the President’s reflections on a host of contemporary challenges and issues confronting India and the world, the Vice President said that we have to realise the strength within each one of us and get our act together.
The Vice President said that political parties must evolve a consensus on the Code of Conduct for their Members both inside the Legislature and out of it. Otherwise people might soon lose faith in our political processes and institutions, he said.
