In a recent speech titled ‘2024 New Year Message’ at Emmanuel Ministries, Pastor Paul Emmanuel made controversial statements regarding the origin of the Indian Constitution. He claimed that Dr. Ambedkar, the principal architect of the Indian Constitution, had essentially compiled it by picking provisions from the American and British constitutions.

Pastor Paul Emmanuel stated “Did you know that the Indian Constitution is a copy of American and British Constitutions? Dr. BR Ambedkar picked certain provisions from these two constitutions and compiled the Indian Constitution. If you look closely, the opinions of intellectuals lead one to believe that the American and British Constitutions were derived from the holy books. Thus, it is evident from this that the Indian Constitution is indirectly derived and based on the Gospels.”

These controversial and biased comments were made by Paul Emmanuel International Ministries and Christ Temple Foundation while speaking to many followers at the Christ Temple, Mary Stella Indoor Stadium in Vijayawada.

Paul Emmanuel and his wife Nissy are well-known Christian evangelists operating from Andhra Pradesh. Every Sunday, they conduct prayer meetings which significantly draw a huge number of followers.

Their videos on Christianity and the Bible are highly influential with a reach of over 7 lakh viewers on YouTube. His comments and observations are insulting in nature and against the spirit of the Indian Constitution with an intention to belittle the rich philosophical, cultural, social, and economic history of Bharat.

Comments are aimed at convincing the gathering that the United States of America (USA) and European countries are advanced and developed due to their faith in Jesus.

It is certainly true that many of the elements of organizational structures like Parliament, Judiciary, etc., are adopted from other countries, but the soul values and principles which guide them are certainly Bhartiya in nature.

However, global Christian missionaries are known to distort anything that is not linked with Christianity, particularly in Bharat. Very strategically and systematically, these evangelical forces portray Christian nations as advanced countries and non-Christian nations as poor and uncivilized.

Their preachings often draw conclusions that Hindus are inferior and uncivilized, influencing the subconscious psyche of the church followers. As these Christian pastors hold a respectable position in the lives of their followers, they believe that their statements are true, without bothering to verify or reason with logic and become the carriers of the same message to their near and dear to solidify Christian faith.
