Constitution Day is celebrated on

Explanation

Constitution Day, also known as Samvidhan Divas, is celebrated in India on 26th November every year. On this day in 1949, the Constituent Assembly of India formally adopted the Constitution of India, which subsequently came into effect on 26th January 1950.

  • The Government of India officially declared 26th November as Constitution Day in 2015, coinciding with the 125th birth anniversary of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, who played a pivotal role as the Chairman of the Drafting Committee.
  • The day aims to spread awareness about the importance of the Constitution and the fundamental values it enshrines.
  • In contrast, 26th January is celebrated as Republic Day, marking the date the Constitution came into force.
