Republic Day in India commemorates the adoption of
the Constitution of India on January 26, 1950. While India gained independence
from the British Raj in 1947, it wasn't until January 26, 1950, that the
Constitution of India came into effect, and the country became a sovereign
state, declaring it a republic. The Constituent Assembly held its first session
on December 9, 1946, and the last on November 26, 1949, and then the
Constitution was adopted a year later. Dr BR Ambedkar headed the Drafting
Committee of the Constitution. On this day, India also marks Constitution Day,
known as "Samvidhan Divas" as well.
