Which of the following statements about the process of the Parliament to make new states is NOT correct?

  • A.The Parliament may by law form a new state and alter the boundaries or names of existing States.
  • B.A Bill to this effect cannot be introduced in the Parliament except on the recommendation of the President.
  • C.A Bill to this effect may be referred by the President to the Legislature of the affected State
  • D.Such a law will fall under the purview of Article 368.

Answer: D

Statement D is not correct. Under Article 4, a law made under Article 2 or 3 to form new states or alter boundaries or names is not treated as an amendment of the Constitution for the purpose of Article 368, so it does not fall under the amendment procedure. The other three statements describe Article 3: Parliament may form a new state by law, the Bill needs the President's recommendation, and the President refers it to the state legislature for its views.
