Modern India: Framing the Constitution

Question:

The Draft Constitution of India had how many volumes?

Options:

Three

Twelve

Thirteen

Eleven

Correct Answer:

Eleven

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) → Eleven

The Draft Constitution of India had eleven volumes.

Ambedkar himself had the responsibility of guiding the Draft Constitution through the Assembly. This took three years in all, with the printed record of the discussions taking up eleven bulky volumes. But while the process was long it was also extremely interesting. The members of the Constituent Assembly were eloquent in expressing their sometimes very divergent points of view. In their presentations we can discern many conflicting ideas of India – of what language Indians should speak, of what political and economic systems the nation should follow, of what moral values its citizens should uphold or disavow.
