TIL that B.R Ambedkar, the Chairman of the committee that drafted the Constitution of India, which was put into effect in 1950, said three years later that "It does not suit anybody."

Ambedkar expressed his disapproval for the constitution in 1953 during a parliament session and said "People always keep on saying to me "Oh you are the maker of the constitution". My answer is I was a hack. What I was asked to do, I did much against my will." Ambedkar added that, "I am quite prepared to say that I shall be the first person to burn it out. I do not want it. It does not suit anybody.“
