History behind Happy Republic Day

Republic Day is celebrated every year on 26th January to commemorates the adoption of Indian Constitution in 1950. However, the country gained independence on 15th August 1947 but continues to operate under colonial-era laws untill the constitution designed by B.R. Ambedkar and other members of the constitution assembly came into effect.  
 

Post Independence, a Drafting Committee was established to make a new constitution appointing Dr. B R Ambedkar the chairman of the committee. The constitution of India was completed and adopted on 26th November 1949 which is now observed as constitution Day.  

The constitution of India came into force two months later on 26th January 1950, which is observed as Republic Day. India formally declared itself a sovereign, democratic, and republican nation with the constitution came into force on 26th January 1950 

India’s Republic Day is celebrated across the country with immense pride and patriotic fervour. The President of India hoists the national flag at Rajpath in New Delhi, the capital of nation. This marks the official celebration. The citizens and guest attending the event from abroad witness the grand parades featuring regiments of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force. The Police and Paramilitary forces are also part of the grand parade.
