New Delhi: Taking a stern view of the omission of words "socialist" and "secular" from the Preamble in its print advertisements on Constitution Day, Delhi government today tendered an apology for the error and ordered a probe to ascertain if any "mischief" was involved.
Published by the Arvind Kerjriwal-led Delhi government to commemorate the adoption of Constitution, the English advertisements which appeared in newspapers today carried the text of Preamble, however, the two words were missing from the content.
"Delhi government apologizes for an error of missing words in its advertisement published in the English newspapers on the Constitution Day celebrations on Wednesday."
"The Chief Minister has taken a stern view of the matter and directed the Director of Information and Publicity to conduct an inquiry and submit a report within four days," the government said in a statement.
"The inquiry will focus on whether some mischief was involved in this matter," it added.
