Is there no other association of the Congress in the making of the Constitution and the strengthening of the Constitution? There is, and that inspiring story is rarely told. Article 368 of the Constitution provides for the power of Parliament to amend the Constitution—a necessary power in the Constitution of any country.

The Constitution is a living document that has to be adapted to the changing life of a nation.
