Solution

  • A Sovereign State is a country that is free from the control of any foreign power and has the ultimate authority to govern itself.
    Attaining sovereignty was a key goal of India’s freedom struggle, as it meant complete self-rule.
  • In a democracy, sovereignty rests with the people, who elect their representatives. The elected government makes laws and takes decisions on behalf of the people.

Thus, our Constitution reflects the principle of sovereignty and ensures that all power originates from the people.
