ONLINE ARTICLE WRITING COMPETITION: INDEPENDENCE DAY

Lex Repository is proud to announce Article Writing Competition, in the interest of proud Writers on the occasion of Independence Day 2021.

ABOUT 74TH INDEPENDENCE DAY

Independence Day is celebrated annually on 15 August as a national holiday in India commemorating the nation’s independence from the United Kingdom on 15 August 1947, the day when the provisions of the 1947 Indian Independence Act, which transferred legislative sovereignty to the Indian Constituent Assembly, came into effect.

India retained King George VI as head of state until its transition to a full republic, when the nation adopted the Constitution of India on 26 January 1950 (celebrated as Indian Republic Day) and replaced the dominion prefix, Dominion of India, with the enactment of the sovereign law Constitution of India.

India attained independence following the Independence Movement noted for largely non-violent resistance and civil disobedience.

ABOUT THE COMPETITION

Applicants are invited to submit original essays addressing any relevant topic related to below-mentioned themes. The Competition is divided into two parts which are as follows-

For School students
For Law Background People
Note: The Article will be judged in one of the two aforementioned categories independently (exclusive of each other). The results declared will be separate for both the categories and they would be final. The authority vests with LEX REPOSITORY to change or modify the same.
