But first, let’s brush up on our History. The Constitution of India, which was adopted by the Constituent Assembly on November 26, 1949, came into effect on January 26, 1950. This completed India’s transition towards becoming an independent republic with a democratic government system. January 26 was also chosen as the day to mark Republic Day because it was on this day that the Indian National Congress (INC) proclaimed the Declaration of Indian Independence in 1929.
