and implemented……
 It has gone through a great amount of research on and
above the borrowings from the other constitutions, to
make the present Indian constitution.
 These valuable inputs are largely influenced by factors like,
Social, Economic & Geographical factors……
 And hence, the Indian Constitution came into force after a
huge period.
