India celebrated the 75th anniversary of the adoption of its Constitution on November 26, 2024, a significant milestone in the nation's history.

November 26 is commemorated as Samvidhan Divas. On this day in 1949, the Indian Constituent Assembly formally adopted the Constitution, which became effective on January 26, 1950, laying the foundation for India as a sovereign, democratic republic.

Since then, the nation commemorates the Constitution's adoption annually, reflecting on its significance and enduring impact.
