Republic Day of India har saal 26 January ko poore desh me garv, samman aur deshbhakti ke saath manaya jata hai. Ye din Bharat ke liye isliye bahut khaas hai kyunki 26 January 1950 ko hamare desh ka Constitution lagu hua, aur India officially ek Sovereign, Socialist, Secular aur Democratic Republic bana.
Republic Day sirf ek national holiday nahi hai, balki ye hume yaad dilata hai ki hamare adhikar (rights) aur kartavya (duties) Constitution se aate hain. Is din hum apne freedom fighters, Constitution ke makers aur democratic values ko yaad karte hain.
26 January ka Itihaas (History of Republic Day)
India ko 15 August 1947 ko British rule se azadi mili, lekin us time desh ke paas apna koi permanent Constitution nahi tha. Tab tak India ko Government of India Act, 1935 ke under chalaya ja raha tha, jo Britishers ne banaya tha.
Ek independent aur democratic desh ke liye apna Constitution hona bahut zaroori tha. Isliye Constituent Assembly of India ka gathan kiya gaya. Is assembly ne desh ke liye ek aisa Constitution banane ka kaam shuru kiya jo har citizen ko barabari ka haq de.
Is poore process ke chairman the Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, jinhone Constitution ko draft karne me sabse important role nibhaya. Constitution banane me lagbhag 2 saal, 11 mahine aur 18 din lage.
Akhirkar 26 November 1949 ko Constitution adopt hua aur 26 January 1950 ko poore desh me lagu kar diya gaya. Isi din India ek Republic bana aur Dr. Rajendra Prasad ne desh ke pehle President ke roop me shapath li.
26 January ko hi Republic Day kyun manaya jata hai?
26 January ki date India ke freedom struggle se judi hui hai. 26 January 1930 ko Indian National Congress ne Purna Swaraj (Complete Independence) ki ghoshna ki thi. Is din Jawaharlal Nehru ne Lahore session me ye elan kiya tha ki India ab poori tarah se azadi chahta hai.
Isliye jab Constitution lagu karne ka din choose karna tha, tab 26 January ko select kiya gaya taaki freedom fighters ke sapno ko samman diya ja sake.
