17 November - Rajendra Prasad elected the President of Indian National Congress in 1947

 


Rajendra Prasad was elected as the President of the Indian National Congress on 17 November 1947. This was a significant event in India's political history, as it occurred just a few months after India gained independence from British rule on August 15, 1947. Rajendra Prasad, who later went on to become the first President of independent India, played a crucial role in the Constituent Assembly and the framing of the Indian Constitution.

His election as the President of the Indian National Congress showcased his leadership and the trust that his colleagues had in him during the formative years of the country's independence. Rajendra Prasad's contributions to the nation extended beyond his role in the Congress, making him a key figure in the early years of India's post-independence era.
