Important Articles of the Constitution of India

Important articles of Indian constitution for exam.India is the largest country in the world when compared to the number of electorates. It has also the largest written constitution in the world. But it has not been properly implemented as the politicians/ Mafia are playing their role to keep people of India ignorant and due to massive poverty and lack of education, there is severe lack of understanding of rights and awareness among the common public. Our constitution has provided certain rights to all the citizens of the country and it should be exercised keeping in mind the rights of the others in the society. Our laws are formulated on the basis of the guidelines given by constitution of India. We made constitution on November 26, 1949 and implemented it on January 26, 1950 and called India a republic (where president is the head of the state). Some articles of Indian constitution are very important and are often asked in various competitive examination. Candidates should learn it.
