Preamble is also part of constitution.. it's the substantive part of the constitution

[@Khadijafarooqadv]

Preamble is the introductory part of constitution.

[@sad__tones4258]

@@Khadijafarooqadv it was later on 2 march 1985 changed to substantive part of the constitution you can see in article 2-A of the constitution.

@@sad__tones4258 I’ve already mentioned this in my video.
And the thing you are telling is article 2A which is about objective resolution and it was added in constitution lately and not the preamble portion which was added.
Preamble is an introductory part of the constitution and it was already in the constitution 1956, 1062 and 1973.
Objective resolution was added in preamble as article 2A after amendment which shows its importance and I’ve a complete video on objective resolution featuring on my timeline.
Don’t confuse yourself between preamble and objective resolution, Thank you .
