People in India remember their history and celebrate independence and peace every year after launching the own constitution of India.

The day also helps us to remember the hardship and sincere efforts of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar which he took to frame the constitution of our nation.

India before was mostly governed by the regulation of the princely states and there was a need to have a document which lays the framework for the country’s political code, rules, procedures etc. There was also a necessity of a document which describes the fundamental rights and duties of the citizen residing in the country so that they could flourish and add up to the overall development of the country to reach new heights. The Constituent Assembly of India adopted the constitution on 26th November 1949 which became effective on 26th January 1950.
