Why "Republic Day"?

The article is missing at least a short mention of what the main difference was between "Dominion Status" up to the adoption of the Indian Constitution and the constitutional form that the subsequent Indian Union was henceforth taking. While it is mentioned that King George VI remained head of state after independence, no mention is made of the fact that the Constitution actually converted India into a republic and thus removed a fundamental constitutional linkage with the British Empire. It is this change that is being celebrated in the national holiday, and it should get at least a mention. 81.179.10.84 (talk) 12:53, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

This is the article about the annual holiday; we don't need specific details about the constitution, as that information appears on many other pages. Qwyrxian (talk) 01:31, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 25 January 2020

please change 26 January was chosen as the Republic day because it was on this day in 1929 when Declaration of Indian Independence (Purna Swaraj) was proclaimed by the Indian National Congress as opposed to the Dominion status offered by the British Regime to On 19 December,1929 in its Lahore session, the Indian national Congress passed the resolution of(Purna Swaraj) as opposed to the Dominion status offered by the British Regime and a public declaration called (Pledge of Indian Independence) was passed on January 26,1930 by the Congress urging people to celebrate (Independence Day).To commemorate this day,the republic day is celebrated on January 26.

Factually incorrect information on date on which Purna swaraj resolution was passed.

Dear Wikipedia users,

The date on which the Purna swaraj was passed which was mentioned on this page is factually incorrect.The actual date was December 19,1929 and on January 26,1930 the resolution for Pledge for complete independence was passed. We can refer to the Wikipedia page of Purna swaraj for correct information.

I'd suggest changing the "British Regime" part of the article to say "British Raj" for NPOV reasons and also possibly fixing some typos in the text (e.g. "Republic day" in the lead -> "Republic Day"/"India achieved independence from British Raj" in the "History of Republic Day" section -> "India achieved independence from the British Raj") if necessary 🙂 2405:9800:B640:40B6:A5A1:A04A:2877:9FB6 (talk) 02:29, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
