History teaches that the passion of the moment can cause people to sacrifice even the most basic principles of liberty and justice.
The constitution enumerates the basic values and makes changes very difficult so that momentary impulses cannot destroy the whole fabric of institution which is so near and dear  and basic for us and ours.
Constitution is an expression by the society of its intention to protect the values it most cherishes and further to limit itself, to tie its own hands ,to limit its ability to fall prey to weaknesses that might harm or undermine cherished fundamentals.
A society personifies itself through Constitution.
A constitution defines the state and puts a limit to the powers of state and stipulates the relationship between the state and its subjects.
