Delhi Assembly gears up for 75th Constitution Day celebrations

Preparations are in full swing at the Delhi Legislative Assembly as the institution readies itself to celebrate the 75th Constitution Day.

Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta on Saturday chaired a high-level review meeting with senior officials.

This year’s Constitution Day will feature a major centenary tribute: the unveiling of a specially curated coffee table book by Vice President CP Radhakrishnan. The event will mark 100 years since Vithalbhai Patel became the first Indian-elected Speaker of the Central Legislative Assembly on August 24, 1925. The VP will attend the celebration as the chief guest, while Lt Governor of Delhi Vinai Kumar Saxena and Delhi CM Rekha Gupta will participate as guests of honour.
