Explanation:
The drafting of the constitution was done by an assembly of elected representatives, called the Constituent Assembly.
(i) Elections to the Constituent Assembly held in July 1946 and its first meeting was held in December 1946.
(ii) After the partition, the Constituent Assembly was also divided into the Constituent Assembly of India and that of Pakistan.
(iii) The Constituent Assembly that wrote the Indian constitution had 299 members. The constitution does not only reflect the views of its members but it expresses a broad consensus of its time.
(iv) The Constituent Assembly represented the people of India, i.e., members from different language groups, castes, classes, religions, and occupations. Thus the constitution written by the Constituent Assembly covered the interests of the diverse population of our country.
(v) Finally, the manner in which the Constituent Assembly worked gives sanctity to the constitution. They worked in a systematic, open and consensual manner. A Drafting Committee chaired by Dr. BR Ambedkar prepared a draft constitution. Several rounds of thorough discussion took place. Every documents were recorded and preserved. These are 'Constituent Assembly debates' and are printed in 12 volumes. These are used to interpret the true meaning of the constitution.
(vi) The Assembly adopted the constitution on 26th November 1949 and it came into effect on 26th January 1950. To mark this day, we celebrate 26th January as the Republic Day of India every year.
