MIBAZAAR SALUTES INDIA ON ITS 57TH REPUBLIC DAY

On this special occasion, must make a mention of DR. Rajendra Prasad. In July 1946, when the Constituent Assembly was established to frame the Constitution of India, Dr. Rajendra Prasad was elected its President. Two and a half years after independence, on January 26, 1950, the Constitution of independent India was ratified and Dr. Rajendra Prasad was elected the nation's first President. Devout and deeply religious, he was an embodiment of the best values in Indian Culture. Dr. Rajendra Prasad was born in Zeradei, Bihar on December 3, 1884. You can check the location of his birth place on Google Maps at http://www.mibazaar.com/celeb.html
