The celebration of the Constitution Day will culminate on 14th April 2020, i.e. on Dr Ambedkar Jayanti. CBSE has issued directives to the schools and educational institutes to create a calendar of activities and submit the same.

The activities suggested by CBSE & MHRD include the pledge-taking ceremony, which have to be conducted during the morning assembly.
