Dr Aniruddha Babar, a Senior Faculty from Tetso College, Dimapur and founder of the Project Constitutional Justice initiative has reached Mumbai in Maharashtra after embarking on a solo motorcycle expedition on 18th December 2023. The Assistant Professor aims to introduce to the nation the forgotten, invisible people of Eastern Nagaland, and carry a message of hope and justice for them.
On his way to Mumbai from Dimapur, Dr Babar traversed through the states of Assam, West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh where he interacted with countless people, introducing to them the hitherto unknown world of their fellow citizens from Eastern Nagaland.
In Mumbai, Dr Babar secured a meeting with Ramesh Bais, Governor of Maharashtra where the professor shared his experiences and insights, both from his motorcycle journey, and from his larger experience working to provide constitutionally guaranteed rights to the people of Eastern Nagaland.
Dr Aniruddha Babar informed that the Governor appreciated the discussion, and issued a message lauding Project Constitutional Justice, noting that the initiative encourages active engagement with legal and judicial systems to ensure the upholding of constitutional values, end discrimination, and promote the welfare of marginalised communities, specially of the Eastern and most remote regions of Nagaland, thus promoting the vision of “Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat”.
Further, Dr Babar said that the Maharashtra Governor’s kind words further encourage Project Constitutional Justice to redouble its efforts towards realising the ideals of the Constitution, and thus, guarantee an honourable and just life for the people of Eastern Nagaland.
