Republic Day is celebrated with great pride and enthusiasm throughout India. This day celebrates the anniversary of the Constitution of India and the transition of India from a country under British Raj to Free India. After India got free from the British rule on 15th August 1947, India was headed by King George VI till the constitution of India came into force on 26th January 1950.
