Republic Day annually falls on January 26. This year, India celebrates its 75th Republic Day. The day marks the adoption of India's constitution and the country's transition to a Republic on January 26, 1950. While India became independent in 1947, it wasn't until 1950 that the country became a sovereign state, declaring it a Republic.
