Why is the Indian constitution acceptable to the people even today?

The Indian Constitution was framed by the Constituent Assembly in a span of almost three years. It came into effect on 26 January 1950. It is still acceptable to the people after almost seven decades due to the following reasons:

1. It was prepared by people of different religions, castes, educational background on a broad consensus.

2. It takes into account the diversity of the country and promotes equality.

3. It does not discriminate on the basis of caste, religion or sex.

4. It protects the minorities from being subdued by the majority.

5. It supports the idea of justice for all and rule of law.

These are some of the features which make the Constitution a supreme document which guides the functioning of the country.
