68TH REPUBLIC DAY CELEBRATION
REPORT 2017

DATE: 26.01.2017

            India is a country having people of different cultures, societies, religions and languages who interplay with each other harmoniously.  Independence to India is a great pride as it was obtained over years after facing a variety of obstacles and hurdles.  At that time, there was no permanent constitution of our country.  
 
 The first draft of the Indian constitution was presented by the drafting committee to the National assembly on 4the November in 1947.  The constitution of India came into effect on 26the January in 1950.  India was declared as the ‘Purna Swaraj’ country.  So every year 26th January is celebrated as Republic day.
