The Constitution of Nepal, 2072 was proclaimed by the Constituent Assembly on September 20, 2015 as a result of the sacrifices and long struggles of the Nepalese people.
On this special occasion of celebration of a decade of constitution promulgation, special programmes as discussions, debates, and interactions regarding the status after the implementation of the constitution, achievements, weaknesses, and the problems that have to be endured were planned, but these have been affected due to the changed circumstances in the aftermath of the irreparable loss of lives and property.
On the occasion of the Constitution Day and National Day on September 19, programmes will be organised also at the provincial and local levels focusing on the historical background of the current constitution, its importance, and the inherent aspects of the constitution.
