Search engine for Constituent Assembly debates in India

Constituent assembly had many interesting discussions that throw interesting light on India's Constitution
Loading
India's Constitution is far-sighted and among the most interesting Constitutions of the world. It was framed after extensive discussions at the Constituent assembly. These debates throw an interesting light on issues that led to the Constitution, the way it is. I have often wondered why certain provisions exist in a certain way and have turned to the debates in this assembly. To make it easy for me to search these debates, I have created a search engine using Google custom search engine and the transcripts of the debates provided by the Parliament of India. Since these are transcripts, it takes a longer time and some refined effort to find what we are looking for. I hope having a customised search engine will make this process easier.

    Thank you so much for creating this search engine. It has made my work so much simpler. I needed to consult the debates on secularism in the Constituent Assembly. I was despairing of how to find where to look.
    thanks again for doing this.

    A very useful website. I wish the Lok Sabha Secretariat undertakes a similar exercise so that instead of going through material under different links anybody can get the Constituent Assembly Debates in one place and the index will help them find what they want.
