Why is Republic Day celebrated?
Republic Day, celebrated in India on January 26, marks the day the Constitution of India came into force in 1950.
Republic Day holds great significance because although India gained independence on August 15, 1947, it was still governed by British-era laws.
However, on 26 January 1950, the Government of India Act was replaced by the Constitution of India, making India officially a sovereign and democratic republic.
This date was chosen in honor of Purna Swaraj (Complete Independence) declared by Indian leaders on 26 January 1930.
Republic Day represents democracy, equality and justice, freedom and unity in diversity.
Is it the 77th or 78th Republic Day?
India will celebrate its 77th Republic Day this year.

About Google Doodles
Google’s first holiday logo was created in 1998 as a simple out-of-office message. It turns out that the founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, attended the Burning Man festival.
In the 28 years since then, holiday logos have evolved into a global art form that celebrates important people, cultures, history and events. Google has now created over 5,000 holiday logos.
