We are Indians, firstly and lastly.” – B. R. Ambedkar

Why We Celebrate Republic day

On January 26, 1950, the Constitution of India, drafted by Dr BR
Ambedkar, came into force and replaced the Government of India Act,
1935, as the governing document of the country, completing the
transition towards becoming a sovereign democratic republic. The
constitution was passed on November 26, 1949.

However, because
the Indian National Congress had passed a resolution in 1930, fixing
January 26 as the independence day, the assembly, after passing the
constitution, decided to wait till January 26, 1950, to bring it (the
constitution) into force.

Short Speech and the Paragraph About Republic day

Republic day in India is celebrated every year with a large honor on
26th of January to honor the Constitution of India as it came into force
on the same day in the year 1950. It had replaced the Government of
India Act, 1935 into the governing document of the India.

At this
day, a national holiday is declared by the Indian Government. The new
Indian constitution was sketched and approved by the Indian Constituent
Assembly and decided to celebrate it on 26th of January every year as
India became a republic country.

Republic Day in India is
celebrated to commemorate the coming of its constitution into force.
Officially it is celebrated every year in the national capital of India
New Delhi at the Rajpath in the presence of the President of India.

Republic Day is celebrated to commemorate the efforts of
constitution-makers who ensured the smooth, gradual conversion of India
into a constitutional democracy. Our nation had not inherited a legacy
like Magna Carta. After almost 1200 years of authoritarian and
imperialist rule, this was the first occasion when the country attained
self-rule along with a system to safeguard it.

To commemorate the
historic day when the longest constitution on the globe was enacted for
the largest democracy in the world, a series of official events are
planned in the national capital. A grand parade, involving all the three
wings of the armed forces march from Raisina Hill, paying salutations
to the President of India, who is also the Commander-in-chief of the
Defence forces. The parade moves from Rashtrapati Bhawan to the India
Gate and ends at the historic Red Fort.

Apart from the military
wings, tribal and folk groups representing their respective states also
take part in the parade. All governmental buildings are lightened for
the entire week in NCR region and a national holiday is observed
nationwide.

The Constitution gave the citizens of India the power to choose their own government and paved the way for democracy.
