In this paper, the gauge structure of non-Abelian Chern–Simons model is investigated. Non-Abelian Chern–Simons model, unlike first class constraints systems is not a gauge theory, primarily due to the appearance of two second class constraints in its algebra. These two second class constraints were converted into first ones using gauge unfixing formalism. The model Lagrangian and Hamiltonian were obtained, aiming to satisfy first class algebra and hence making it into a fully gauge theory. Partition function of the model was finally evaluated and presented here.
