COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF AMENDMENT PROCEDURE OF CONSTITUTION OF INDIA AND USA
Downloads
Abstract
A constitution is the main document of any country. It is the constitution that acts as the working document of the country. The amendment of this document from time to time as per the requirements is one of the most important procedures. India and the USA both have written constitutions and the amendment procedure of the constitution is written in both these constitutions. The amendment procedure of the constitution varies from country to country. This paper talks about the amendment procedure of the Indian Constitution and American Constitution. The paper also compares the procedure of amendment of the Indian Constitution and the Constitution of the USA. The state legislatures play a role in both these amendment procedures. The constitution cannot be amended as per the will of the legislatures. There must be certain limits for amending the constitutions of the country. This paper talks about the limitations which are imposed on the procedure while amending the constitution in both India as well as in the USA. The constitution is the charter of the country and should not be unnecessarily amended with a bad intention. The amendment should be made only for the benefit of the public and should not override the basic character of any country.
