The Supreme Court upheld the 1976 addition of "socialist" and "secular" to the Constitution's Preamble. The court clarified that these terms don't hinder private enterprise or prevent the government from addressing harmful religious practices. The ruling also affirmed the government's pursuit of a Uniform Civil Code, despite guaranteeing religious freedom.
