The Constitution Of India (3rd Edition 15 Aug 2022 )The 105 Constitutional Amendment Act English  (Hardcover, Dr. Br Ambedkar)

The Constitution of India is the supreme law of India.[3][4] The document lays down the framework that demarcates fundamental political code, structure, procedures, powers, and duties of government institutions and sets out fundamental rights, directive principles, and the duties of citizens. It is the longest-written national constitution in the world.[5][6][7] It imparts constitutional supremacy (not parliamentary supremacy, since it was created by a constituent assembly rather than Parliament) and was adopted by its people with a declaration in its preamble.[8] Parliament cannot override the constitution. B. R. Ambedkar and Constitution of India on a 2015 postage stamp of India It was adopted by the Constituent Assembly of India on 26 November 1949 and became effective on 26 January 1950.[9] The constitution replaced the Government of India Act 1935 as the country's fundamental governing document, and the Dominion of India became the Republic of India. To ensure constitutional autochthony, its framers repealed prior acts of the British parliament in Article 395.[10] India celebrates its constitution on 26 January as Republic Day.[11] The constitution declares India a sovereign, socialist, secular,[12] and democratic republic, assures its citizens justice, equality, and liberty, and endeavors to promote fraternity.[13] The original 1950 constitution is preserved in a nitrogen-filled case at the Parliament House in New Delhi.[14] The words "secular" and "socialist" were added to the preamble by 42nd amendment act in 1976 during the Emergency.
