Give reasons for accepting the constitution which was made by the Constitution Assembly more than 50 years ago?

The reasons for acceptability of the constitution until today are as follows:

A. The constitution does not reflect the views of its members alone. It expresses a broad consensus of its time.

B. The Constituent Assembly represented the people of India. Since there was no universal adult franchise at that time, the Constituent Assembly could not have been chosen directly by the people. It was elected, mainly by the members of Provincial Legislatures, which ensured a fair share of all the regions of the country.

C. The Constituent Assembly worked in a systematic, open and consensual manner. The nature of work done by the Constituent Assembly gave sanctity to the constitution.
