After the completion of writing work, Dr Rajendra Prasand signed the constitution which was further signed by other 299 members of the assembly.

Feroz Gandhi was the last person to sign the document. He was the president of Constituent Assembly.

Besides careful writing and artistic design, safety of document was also a concern. Thus, a special helium-filled case was used to provide further protection to this document. All the original copies are kept safely in the Parliament of India.
