India Republic Day is celebrated on 26th of January and is one of the three national festivals of India; the other two festivals are independence day and Gandhi Jayanti. It is celebrated among Indians with great grandeur and pride. This day is dedicated to paying tribute to the Indian constitution, the supreme law of India which was formulated by Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar (The father of Indian constitution). The main focus was to remove partiality among several castes (untouchability) in India. On this special day the constitution of India first came into effect in 1950 and then completely became a sovereign state. Let us remember the brilliant legacy of our country and feel proud to be a part of India.
