We, the people of India..
We, the people of India.. This is how our Preamble gets start with. The hopes and aspirations of the people are described in it. It can be referred to as the preface which highlights the entire Constitution. The preamble is based on the Objectives which was drafted and moved in the Constituent Assembly by Jawaharlal Nehru on 13th December 1946. It was adopted on 26th November 1949 by the Constituent Assembly and came into effect on 26th January 1950. This marked the transition for India into a completely Independent Republic.
But why it is held on 26th January only? Very valid question.
26th January is significant for India not just because it is celebrated as a Republic Day. Lahore Congress convened on 31st December, 1929 of the Indian National Congress (INC) accepted "Poorn Swaraj" as the goal of the freedom struggle and decided to celebrate January 26 every year as Independence Day. Since 26th January 1930, that day was celebrated by INC as the Independence Day of India every year till 1947 when India got its complete and official Independence on 15th August, 1947. India however decided to retain this date as the day India turned a Constitutional Republic. Thus January 26 becomes our Republic Day.
But now January 26 has one more significant or rather a more historical event in its kitty in the current year i.e. 2020. This year Republic Day was not been celebrated only on Rajpath in New Delhi but in Mumbai and in many more states all over India with a different flavour. A flavour of protest, a flavour of Satyagrah, a flavour of patriotism, a flavour of peace, a flavour of ahimsa, a flavour of Independence, a flavour of REPUBLIC, a flavour of hopes and aspirations of the people, by mentioning and registering again..
We, the people of India..
