Why we celebrate 26 January as Republic Day?

Question

Every country celebrate its National Days.

Answer 1

Because it is on this day that the constitution of India came into force in the year 1950.
The Constitution lays down the basic structure of government under which the people are to be governed. It establishes the main organs of government - the executive, the legislature and the judiciary. The Constitution not only defines the powers of each organ, but also demarcates their responsibilities. It regulates the relationship between the different organs and between the government and the people.
The Constitution is superior to all other laws of the country.
Every law enacted by the government has to be in conformity with the Constitution. The Constitution lays down the national goals of India - Democracy, Socialism, Secularism and National Integration. It also spells out the rights and duties of citizens.
Preamble
WE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, having solemnly resolved to constitute India into a SOVEREIGN SOCIALIST SECULAR DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC and to secure to all its citizens:
JUSTICE, social, economic and political;
LIBERTY of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;

FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of the Nation;
IN OUR CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY this twenty-sixth day of November, 1949, do HEREBY ADOPT, ENACT AND GIVE TO OURSELVES THIS CONSTITUTION. [1]

Why We Celebrate 26 January Republic Day

Answer 3

26 January is celebrated as Republic Day because in December 1929, the Congress in its Lahore session had decided to fight for "Poorna Swaraj" or "Complete Independence" and 26 January 1930 was celebrated as the Independence Day since then. And our leaders decided to celebrate 26 January 1950 as the day to enforce the Constitution of India which is a symbol of India's Independence.
