The Constitution Day of India

The aim of declaring November 26 as the Constitution Day of India is to spread the importance of the Indian Constitution, and to spread awareness about its architect, Dr B R Ambedkar. Modi had also said that “on this day, every year, school children will be taught about constitution and Dr Ambedkar.”
