Q-2
Dr.B.R Ambedkar was the person who said that indian constitution was a bag of borrowings and it's basically
true aswell as we can find that right from preamble itself everything was actually borrowed.. It is called so
because Indian Constitution has borrowed provisions from the constitutions of various other countries. ...
However, calling the Constitution a bag of borrows is unfair because it is not a result of blind copy and paste.

Q-3
The Constitution of India was not prepared in haste but the process of the
evolution of the constitution began many decades before India became
independent in 1947. The process continued unabated since it originated in
the freedom struggle till a new constitution was drafted after prolonged
debates and discussions in the Constituent Assembly. The day 26th of
January, 1950 was a red-letter day in the history of India. On that day the
written constitution of India came into operation. January 26th was
purposefully chosen (as the date on which the constitution became
operative) because since 1930, the day has been celebrated as the day of
complete independence throughout India by millions of people. It is very
befitting to declare such a historic day as the day of operation of the
Constitution of Republic of India. The Constitution of India was the longest
written constitution having the best elements of all the existing
constitutions up to that date.
