The constitution of India was made by the Constituent Assembly which had been elected for undivided India but later reassembled as Constituent Assembly for divided India on 14 August 1947. Its members were chosen by indirect election by the members of the Provisional Legislative Assemblies that had been established under the Government of India Act,1935. Each province and each princely state were allotted seats proportional to their respective population roughly in the ratio of 1:10,00,000. The seats in each province were distributed among the three main communities, Muslims, Sikhs and general. In provincial legislative assembly people elected their representatives by method of the proportional representation with single transferable vote. Whereas in the princely states they used the method of selection which is determined by consultation.

The assembly met for one hundred and sixty six days, spread over 2 years and 11 months. The constituent assembly had 8 major committees on different subjects. Dr.Rajendra Prasad was the president of Constituent Assembly and Dr.B.R.Ambedkar was the chairman. Each committee drafted particular provisions of the constitution which were then subjected to debate by the entire assembly. The makers of the Indian constitution borrowed a number of provisions from different countries.

Provisions adopted from constitutions of different countries:

1. British Constitution: First past the post, parliamentary form of government, the idea of rule of law, institution of the speaker and her/his role and law making procedure.
2. Irish Constitution: Directive principles of state policy.
3. United states constitution: Charter of Fundamental Rights,Power of judicial review and independence of the judiciary.
4. French Constitution: Principles of Liberty, Equality and Fraternity.
5. Canadian Constitution: A quasi-federal form of government and the idea of residual powers.
