List of Amendments of The Constitution of India - Wikipedia

List of amendments
of the Constitution
of India
As of January 2020, there have been 104[1]

amendments of the Constitution of India
since it was first enacted in 1950.[2]
There are three types of amendments to

the Constitution of India of which second
and third type of amendments are
governed by Article 368.
The first type of amendments includes
that can be passed by "simple majority"
in each house of the Parliament of India.
The second type of amendments
includes that can be effected by the
parliament by a prescribed "special
majority" in each house; and
The third type of amendments includes
those that require, in addition to such
"special majority" in each house of the
parliament, ratification by at least one
half of the State Legislatures.
The third type amendments that are made

to the constitution are amendments No. 3,
6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 24, 25, 28, 30,
31, 32, 35, 36, 38, 39, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 51,
54, 61, 62, 70, 73, 74, 75, 79, 84, 88, 95, 99,
101, 102, 103 and 104.[3]
Although constitutional amendments

require the support of a two-thirds majority
in both houses of Parliament (with some
amendments requiring ratification by a
majority of state legislatures), the Indian
Constitution is the most amended national
constitution in the world.[4] The
Constitution spells out governmental
powers with so much detail that many
matters addressed by statute in other
democracies must be addressed via
constitutional amendment in India. As a
result, the Constitution is amended roughly
twice a year.
