Solution
Following the principle of “Unity in Diversification”, the Constituent Assembly of India came into existence. It was skillfully interwoven, taking the members from almost all major regions and all major sections and communities of India. The joint efforts of their made the country venture into the sea of progress and prosperity in the near future. All the members had been committed to national integration. They were liable to work in the interests of the general public even when their aspirations tended to lean to their respective regions and communities. As evidence from this perspective, we find it included Dr. Ambedkar hailed from Maharashtra Rajendra Prasad and Satyanarayan Sinha belonged to Bihar, Mohammed Saddulla belonged to Assam, Hukam Singh and Ujjal Singh from East Punjab and so on. Also, it included the women members like Mrs. Sarojini Naidu, Rajkumari Amrit Kaur. Thus, in a way, the scenario set forth by the Constituent Assembly is no less than A Microcosm of India (Mini- India).
