Republic Day 2023: 20 Best Quotes by Freedom Fighters to share and celebrate this National Festival

Republic Day was first celebrated on January 26, 1950. It was on this day that the Constitution of India came into effect. Dr BR Ambedkar headed the Drafting Committee of the Constitution. However, the Constitution was adopted by the Indian Constituent Assembly on November 26, 1949. Hence, that day is observed as the Constitution Day.
