Detailed explanation-1: -Every constitutional amendment is formulated as a statute. The first amendment is called the “Constitution (First Amendment) Act", the second, the “Constitution (Second Amendment) Act", and so forth. Each usually has the long title “An Act further to amend the Constitution of India".
Detailed explanation-2: -To ratify amendments, three-fourths of the state legislatures must approve them, or ratifying conventions in three-fourths of the states must approve them.
Detailed explanation-3: -Any existing constitutional amendment can be repealed but only by the ratification of another amendment. Because repealing amendments must be proposed and ratified by one of the same two methods of regular amendments, they are very rare.
