January 26 is the day when every person born on the holy land of India has a great love for the country in the veins. And they remember those freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives for the motherland.
26 January 1950, An important date when the Constitution of India was enacted. This date has special significance in history because Hindi was taken as the official language of India for the first time in 1965.
Our country passed out almost 894 days of being liberated from British rule. Then the newly formed Constitution of India was implemented. With a 21-gun salute, Dr. Rajendra Prasad hoisted the National Flag of India.
From that day onwards, a new republic was born in India, and from that day January 26, we celebrate Republic Day every year throughout India.
From the British colony to the creation of what was now the Democratic Republic of New India, it was a truly historic victory. It was a long dream of about 2 decades, which was seen in about 1930, and came true in 1950.
