Where each bud blooms in it's true colors
Where each day is celebration of unity, harmony and synthesis
As we all know today our country is celebrating "Republic Day". On this day back in 1950, our constitution came into force. The constitution is like a religious book for a country and we need to give it the same respect as we give to our religious book.

As our religious books tell us on what should we do and what are the actions we should avoid, on the same way constitution of India suggests us what should we do as a citizen of the country and what are the actions we need to avoid.

Our constitution has given us a few responsibilities and a few rights too. As both rights and responsibilities come together so we are expected to fulfil the responsibilities as a citizen first before claiming our rights.

When the country was facing the riots and witnessed the partition on the basis of religion out constitution-makers chose to make India a republic and democratic country. We all are proud of equality we get here and it is given to us by our Constitution. Our Constitution has the best aspects of the constitution of other countries. Liberty, Equality and Fraternity was adopted from French Constitution while the Five-Year Plan came from the USSR Constitution.

Another fun fact about INDIA is that it holds the record of having the world's longest Constitution with 448 Articles in total. So let us celebrate this day a festival because this day our motherland INDIA became a republic country.

Let us united and support our country in this pandemic situation also.
