26 th november every year 

Constitution Day ( National Law Day ), also known as Samvidhan Divas , is celebrated in India on 26 November every year to commemorate the adoption of Constitution of India . On 26 November 1949, the Constituent Assembly of India adopted the Constitution of India, and it came into effect on 26 January 1950. [1]

The Government of India declared 26 November as Constitution Day on 19 November 2015 by a gazette notification. The Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi made the declaration on 11 October 2015 while laying the foundation stone of the B. R. Ambedkar memorial in Mumbai . [2] The year of 2015 is the 125th birth anniversary of Ambedkar, who had chaired the drafting committee of the Constituent Assembly and played a pivotal role in the drafting of the constitution. [1] Previously this day was celebrated as Law Day. [3] 26 November was chosen to spread the importance of the constitution and to spread thoughts and ideas of Ambedkar.

Ahead of 1979, we were not rejoicing "Law Day". It first transpired to the Supreme Court Bar Association in 1979, under the vibrant leadership of Dr L.M. Singhvi, to select 26th November to commemorate the similar as "Law Day". November 26, 1949 was the day on which the people of India gave to themselves the exclusive manuscript to govern their national life i.e. the Constitution of India. This document was delightfully designed to make this country a Democratic Republic to be governed by Rule of Law and to continue it as one huge nation with its astonishing and matchless unity in diversity.
