Abstract Early as in 1934, the Congress Party demanded that Indian should have a Constituent Assembly of its own which should give a Constitution to the Country. In 1933, the British Government published a white paper, but the proposals were much below the expectations of the people. It was therefore demanded by the Congress Party that there was absolute need for a Constituent Assembly for India. In 1942, the British Government was made amply clear that the people of India will not be satisfied unless and until, they were given a Constitution by their own Constituent Assembly.1 The resolution further said, the Constitution of the Constituent Assembly and the proceeding and decisions are ultra-virus, invalid and illegal and it should be dissolved. Therefore the Assembly had to evolve its own system of working. It was perceived that the work ran smoothly and the people of country had not to wait for a very long time for a Constitutional document. The scrutiny was so be completed by 24 October and submitted the draft consisting 243 articles and 13 schedules in the early October. In our Constituent Assembly, this 26th day of November 1949 does hereby adopt, enact and give ourselves this Constitution. Thus, it is a matter of shame for Hindu Society that it could not retain such a great scholar and a nationalist. That day will be a very fortunate day for this country when the Hindu Society will be able to get freedom from the stranglehold of rigid caste system.
