Fraternity – Explained

The term "fraternity" describes a feeling of brotherhood and national identity among a nation's citizens. "Fraternity is the sense of common brotherhood and sisterhood among all Indians," said Dr. B. R. Ambedkar. He was confident that "without fraternity, equality and liberty will be no deeper than coats of paint." A great example of fraternity is a group of guys who fought alongside one another in a war. The fraternity very clearly guarantees two things: human dignity and national integrity, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Indian Constitution as stated in the preamble.
