  • Accordingly, November 26 is observed as Constitution day.
  • The clauses of citizenship, Parliament and elections were implemented at the time of adoption of the Constitution, whereas the rest of the clauses were made effective from January 26, 1950, the date of enforcement and commencement of the Constitution, and the day India became a republic, our Republic Day.
  • This day was chosen because the resolution of ‘Purna Swaraj’, or complete independence, had been adopted at the Lahore Session of the Indian National Congress on January 26, 1929.
  • संविधान सभा द्वारा तीन बार पढ़ने के बाद, संविधान के मसौदे को अंततः 26 नवंबर, 1949 को 284 सदस्यों द्वारा अनुमोदित, अपनाया और हस्ताक्षरित किया गया।  
  • तदनुसार, 26 नवंबर को संविधान दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है।        नागरिकता, संसद और चुनाव की धाराएं संविधान को अपनाने के समय लागू की गईं, जबकि बाकी धाराएं 26 जनवरी 1950, संविधान के लागू होने और लागू होने की तारीख और भारत बनने के दिन से प्रभावी हुईं। एक गणतंत्र, हमारा गणतंत्र दिवस।   
  • इस दिन को इसलिए चुना गया क्योंकि 26 जनवरी, 1929 को भारतीय राष्ट्रीय कांग्रेस के लाहौर सत्र में ‘पूर्ण स्वराज’ या पूर्ण स्वतंत्रता का संकल्प अपनाया गया था।
  • It is also important to note that the Constituent Assembly adopted the National Flag on July 22, 1947, whereas the state emblem, which shows three lions, a galloping horse, a bull and chakra in print (taken from the capital of Ashoka’s Sarnath pillar which has four lions carved, facing outwards, back to back), was adopted by the Government of India on January 26, 1950.
  • यह भी ध्यान रखना महत्वपूर्ण है कि संविधान सभा ने 22 जुलाई, 1947 को राष्ट्रीय ध्वज को अपनाया था, जबकि राज्य का प्रतीक, जिसमें प्रिंट में तीन शेर, एक सरपट दौड़ता घोड़ा, एक बैल और चक्र दिखाया गया है (अशोक के सारनाथ स्तंभ की राजधानी से लिया गया है) जिसमें चार शेर खुदे हुए हैं, जो बाहर की ओर, पीछे की ओर मुख किए हुए हैं), भारत सरकार द्वारा 26 जनवरी, 1950 को अपनाया गया था।
  • The words ‘Satyameva Jayate’ (“Truth alone will prevail”) have been adopted from the Mundaka Upanishad.
  • The National Anthem was adopted by the Constituent Assembly on January 24, 1950. It is actually the first stanza of the Jana Gana Mana, originally composed by Rabindranath Tagore, which actually contains five stanzas.
  • The playing time for the National Anthem is fifty-two seconds, however, its shorter version can be completed in twenty seconds.
  • The National Calendar is based on the Shaka Era, starting with 1st Chaitra (equivalent to March 22nd in the Gregorian calendar), and was adopted by the Government of India on March 22, 1957.

• ‘सत्यमेव जयते’ (”सत्य की ही जीत होगी”) शब्द मुंडक उपनिषद से लिए गए हैं। 

• राष्ट्रगान को 24 जनवरी 1950 को संविधान सभा द्वारा अपनाया गया था। यह वास्तव में जन गण मन का पहला छंद है, जो मूल रूप से रवींद्रनाथ टैगोर द्वारा रचित है, जिसमें वास्तव में पांच छंद हैं। 

• राष्ट्रगान को बजाने का समय बावन सेकंड है, हालाँकि, इसका छोटा संस्करण बीस सेकंड में पूरा किया जा सकता है। 

• राष्ट्रीय कैलेंडर शक संवत पर आधारित है, जो 1 चैत्र (ग्रेगोरियन कैलेंडर में 22 मार्च के बराबर) से शुरू होता है, और 22 मार्च, 1957 को भारत सरकार द्वारा अपनाया गया था।
