January 25, 2023 19:17"When we celebrate Republic Day, we celebrate what we have achieved, together, as a nation," said President Droupadi Murmu in her maiden address to the nation on the eve of the 74th Republic Day.
"India will always remain grateful to Dr BR Ambedkar, who headed the Drafting Committee of the Constitution, and thus had a critical part in giving it the final shape," President Murmu said.
"We should also remember role of jurist BN Rau, who had prepared initial draft, and other experts and officers who helped in making of Constitution. We're proud of fact that members of that assembly represented all regions and communities of India and that they included 15 women too," President Murmu said in her address.
