23. NATIONAL ANTHEM –NATIONAL SONG
• STATEMENT RE: NATIONAL ANTHEM
• Mr. President : There is one matter which
has been pending for discussion, namely the
question of the National Anthem. At one
time it was thought that the matter might be
brought up before the House and a decision
taken by the House by way of a resolution.
But it has been felt that, instead of taking a
formal decision by means of a resolution, it is
better if I make a statement with regard to
the National Anthem. Accordingly I make this
statement.
• The composition consisting of the words
and music known as Jana Gana Mana is the
National Anthem of India, subject to such
alterations in the words as the Government
may authorise as occasion arises; and the
song Vande Mataram, which has played a
historic part in the struggle for Indian
freedom, shall be honoured equally with
Jana Gana Mana and shall have equal status
with it. (Applause). I hope this will satisfy the
Members.

24. FIRST PRESIDENT OF INDIA

25. CONSTITUTION OF INDIA IN HINDI
• SIGNING OF THE HINDI TRANSLATION OF
THE CONSTITUTION
• Mr. President : Now there are two things
more which remain to be done. One is the
authentication or rather the certification of
the Hindi Translation of the
Constitution. Honourable Members will
recollect that this House authorised me by a
resolution to get the Hindi translation
prepared, and printed and published before
the 26th of January. That has been done. The
House also authorised me to get translations
in other languages prepared, printed and
published. That work has not yet been
completed; it has been taken up.
• I will ask Shri Ghanshyam Singh Gupta to
let me have the Hindi Translation so that I
may formally place it before, the House and
certify it.
• (The Honourable Shri Ghanshyam Singh
Gupta handed over to Mr. President copies of
the Hindi Translation of the Constitution. Mr.
President then signed them.)

26. SIGNATURES ON CONSTITUTION
• SIGNING OF THE CONSTITUTION
• Mr. President : The only thing
that now remains is the signing of
the copy of the Constitution by
the Members. There are three
copies ready. One is in English
completely hand-written and
illuminated by artists. The second
copy is in print in English. The
third copy is also hand-written in
Hindi. All the three copies are laid
on the table and Members will be
requested one by one to come
and sign the copies. The idea is to
call them in the order in which
they are sitting in the House
now...
