ABSTRACT
This chapter describes about the Indian constitution. It is noted that first private bill indicating the outline of Indian Constitution was drafted and circulated for consideration hardly ten years after the launch of Indian National Congress, the organization that later fought for freedom, in 1885. The British government disapproved their authority to create the constitution, but the British Parliament again gave its approval to the very constitution prepared by the Irish representatives, and ratified it. Considering this background, it is imperative in study of the constitution to explore how much Gandhi contributed in the process of the constitution-making, how much influence he had on it and how many concepts in his mind found place in the constitution. Exploring Gandhi's contribution in constitution-making does not mean denying others valuable contributions; constitutions of great nations are created with contributions by many persons, and citizens are indebted to all of them.
