Samvidhan Diwas is observed every year on 26 November to commemorate the adoption of the Indian Constitution in 1949. Although the Constitution came into force on 26 January 1950, this day marks its official acceptance by the Constituent Assembly. The Government of India declared it Constitution Day in 2015.
Historically, the Constitution was drafted by the Constituent Assembly formed in 1946, with Dr. Rajendra Prasad as its President and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar as the Chairman of the Drafting Committee. The day honours their contributions and highlights the core constitutional values of Justice, Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity.
In 2025, India is celebrating the 75th Constitution Day with the theme “Hamara Samvidhan – Hamara Swabhiman”. Events across the country include Preamble reading, awareness campaigns, debates, and special sessions in institutions and Parliament.
Overall, Samvidhan Diwas reminds citizens to uphold democratic values and remain committed to the principles laid out in the Constitution.
