the Eleventh session of the Constituent Assembly.
This date finds mention in the Preamble to the Indian
Constitution thus IN OUR CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY this

CONSTITUTION.
The honourable members appended their signatures to the
constitution on 24 January, 1950.

1950. On that day, the Constituent Assembly ceased to
exist, transforming itself into the Provisional Parliament of
