History of Republic Day
The process of India becoming a republic was a huge part of India’s struggle for freedom and democracy. After India gained freedom on Independence Day, the job was half done. To secure the future of the country, it was necessary for the founding fathers of India to give it the gift of democracy. It was with the constitution of India that the country truly became the largest democracy in the world.
That it became after the partition of India and Pakistan is also a miracle and a massive event for freedom fighters. After the partition, it was the responsibility of the leaders to create a Constitution that safeguarded the unity and nationalist sentiments of the collective. After a lot of deliberation and struggle, the leaders were able to create a document that stood for the progress of India as a country. Today, the Constitution of India has evolved and is celebrated around the country.
