Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.India ...

Republic Day is a public holiday in India, when the country marks and celebrates the date on which the Constitution of India came into effect on 26th January, 1950, replacing the Government of India Act 1935 as the governing document of India and thus, turning the nation into a newly formed republic.

The Constitution of India was adopted by the Constituent Assembly on 26th November, 1949 and came into force on 26th January, 1950.

Rajpath was not the event's organisational centre from 1950 to 1954 because Republic Day was organised at Irwin Stadium (now known as National Stadium), Kingsway, Red Fort and Ramleela Maidan, from 1950 to 1954. After that, Rajpath has been the permanent venue of Republic Day.

Rajendra Prasad (3 December, 1884 - 28 February, 1963) was an Indian independence activist, lawyer, scholar and subsequently, the first president of India, in office from 1950 to 1962. Two and a half years after independence, on 26 January, 1950, the Constitution of independent India was ratified and he was elected as the first President of India.
