mavalankar remained the president of the central legislative assembly until midnight of 14–15 august 1947 when, under the indian independence act 1947, the central legislative assembly and the council of states ceased to exist and the constituent assembly of india assumed full powers for the governance of india. just after independence, mavalankar headed a committee constituted on 20 august 1947 to study and report on the need to separate the constitution-making role of the constituent assembly from its legislative role. later, on the basis of this committee's recommendation, the legislative and constitution-making roles of the assembly were separated and it was decided to have a speaker to preside over the assembly during its functioning as a legislative body. mavalankar was elected to the office of speaker of the constituent assembly (legislative) on 17 november 1947. with the adoption of the constitution of india on 26 november 1949, the nomenclature of the constituent assembly (legislative) was changed to the provisional parliament. mavalankar became the speaker of the provisional parliament on 26 november 1949 and continued to occupy the office till the first lok sabha was constituted in 1952.
