How Republic Day came to be
The history of Republic Day goes back to India’s fight for freedom from British rule. India didn’t have its constitution when it became independent on August 15, 1947. Instead, it was run by the Government of India Act, of 1935.
A dedicated group was put together to write the constitution, with Dr. B.R. Ambedkar in charge. The work paid off when the Constitution of India was signed into law on January 26, 1950. This was a major turning point in India’s history as it became a sovereign, socialist, secular, and democratic republic.
Why Republic Day Is Important
Republic Day is important because it shows how India feels about being separate. Today is a time to remember the people who fought for freedom and the fight for Indian independence. It also acts as a reminder of the promise to uphold the ideals set out in the Constitution, such as diversity, unity, and honesty.
Indians all over the world are proud of Republic Day because it marks the end of the fight for independence and the creation of a self-governing country.
As a tribute to the democratic ideals written into the Constitution, it moves the country forward. Also, India’s ethnic diversity and unity in diversity are shown off on Republic Day with big celebrations in New Delhi.
