Who among the following are the two civil servants who assisted the Constituent Assembly in framing the Constitution of India ?

The framing of the Indian Constitution was significantly aided by two prominent civil servants: Sir B. N. Rau and S. N. Mukherjee. B. N. Rau served as the Constitutional Adviser to the Constituent Assembly [1]. He was responsible for preparing the initial draft of the Constitution based on reports from various committees and his extensive research into international constitutional frameworks [1]. S. N. Mukherjee was the Chief Draftsman of the Constitution in the Constituent Assembly [3]. He was praised for his ability to put complex proposals into clear legal terminology. While K. M. Munshi and Alladi Krishnaswamy Aiyar were vital members of the Drafting Committee, they were political figures and legal experts rather than career civil servants assisting the administrative machinery of the Assembly [3]. Therefore, the two civil servants specifically recognized for their technical assistance in drafting are B. N. Rau and S. N. Mukherjee.
