While India gained independence from British rule on August 15th, 1947, it did not have an official Constitution and was still under the rule of the British monarch.

On January 26th, 1950, the Indian Constitution was officially adopted, transitioning India into an independent republic with a democratic form of government.

    Introduction

    Republic Day 
    is celebrated with much pomp all across t
    he country
    . The main attraction of Republic Day
    celebrations is the annual parade which
    begins at Rajpath, Delhi, and ends at the
    India Gate. On this day, the country's
    President hoists the flag at Rajpath, New
    Delhi. The ceremonious event also
    showcases India's cultural and social
    heritage, parades and air shows by the
    Meaning

    Republic Day is a day to remember when the Constitution of


    India officially came into force on January 26, 1950. This
    historical act formally transitioned India to become an
    independent republic and hence it is celebrated on January 26
    every year.
    History of Indian Constitution
    It's noted that though India gained freedom from the British
    rule after a long struggle in the wee hours of August 15, 1947.
    Jawaharlal Nehru delivered his famous speech 'Tryst with
    Destiny', declaring India's independence to the citizens. But
    sadly this freedom did not come along with democracy and the
    right to choose your own Government. Since India didn't have
    an official Constitution then, our country was a constitutional
    monarchy under the rule of King George VI even after
    Independence.
    Dr.B.R.Aambedkar

    Realising the need of having an Indian Constitution, a Drafting


    Committee was set up with Dr Bheem Rao Ambedkar being
    appointed as its chairman. The sole objective of setting this
    committee was to draft the Constitution of India, which would be
    the supreme law of India.
    Indian Constitution Approval

     It was finally after two and half years later on January 26, 1950,
    when the Indian Constitution came into effect thus making India
    one of the biggest democracies in the world. It was on this day
    when India was declared as a sovereign, socialist, secular,
    democratic republic. And to honour this day, the Indian Republic
    Day is celebrated with great fervour throughout the country
    every year on January 26.
