A senior official in Gyalshing district in the hill state said that the local administration celebrated the Constitution Day to commemorate the 75 years of the adoption, a milestone that reflects the remarkable journey of our democracy and the enduring legacy of our founding principles and constitutional values here at the premises of District Administrative Centre Gyalshing, today.

On November 26, 1949, the Constituent Assembly adopted the Constitution of India, which came into effect on January 26, 1950, marking the beginning of a new era in Indian history. The day is significant as it marks the adoption of the world’s longest-written Constitution, a cornerstone of India’s democratic framework.
Since its inception, the Constitution serves as the guiding framework, shaping the nation’s progress over the past 75 years.
The Government of India calls upon the citizens to be a part of this historic occasion to show collective pride in the Constitution and demonstrate commitment to the democratic values that define our nation.
