Question
Why did the Constitution abolish the old system of conferring ‘Titles’?

Solution
The system of conferring ‘titles’, was popular during that British rule in India. Titles like Rai Bahadurs or Khan Bahadurs were meant for a peculiar class of aristocrats created by the British Government. As, these titles went against the principle of ‘equality of status’, therefore the Constitution abolished the old system of conferring ‘Titles’.
