Today is National Law Day. The Constitution of India was adopted by the Constituent Assembly on November 26, 1949.

Thirty years later the Supreme Court Bar Association declared November 26 as National Law Day. Every year, this day is celebrated all over India, especially by members of the legal fraternity.

The Day is also celebrated to honour the 207 eminent members of the Constituent Assembly who are considered the founding fathers of the Constitution of India.

On this occasion the National Bar Association of India is organising a 2-day Annual Conference, titled 'National Law Day' from today in New Delhi.
