Thirty-sixth Amendment of the Constitution of India

The Thirty-sixth Amendment of the Constitution of India, officially known as The Constitution (Thirty-sixth Amendment) Act, 1975, made Sikkim the 22nd State of the Union of India. The Amendment also repealed the 35th Amendment which had come into force 1 March 1975, and had set out the terms and conditions of association of Sikkim with the Indian Union.
==Background==

In 1890, Sikkim became a British protectorate, and was gradually granted more sovereignty over the next three decades. When India became independent in 1947, a popular vote rejected Sikkim's joining the Indian Union. In 1950, a treaty was made between India and Sikkim making Sikkim an Indian protectorate. Sikkim came under the suzerainty of India, which controlled its external affairs, defence, diplomacy and communications, but Sikkim otherwise retained administrative autonomy.
A state council was established in 1953 to allow for constitutional government under the Chogyal. Meanwhile, the Sikkim National Congress demanded fresh elections and greater representation for Nepalis in Sikkim. Palden Thondup Namgyal, the Chogyal at the time, proved to be extremely unpopular with the people, and in 1973, riots in front of the Chogyal's palace led to a formal request for protection from India.
In 1975, the Prime Minister of Sikkim appealed to the Indian Parliament for Sikkim to become a state of India. In April of that year, the Indian Army took over the city of Gangtok and disarmed the Chogyal's palace guards. Thereafter, a referendum was held in which 97.5% of voters supported abolishing the monarchy, effectively approving joining the Indian Union. Although the union was presented as the will of the people by the Indian authorities, the merger was widely criticized as an annexation and India was accused of exploiting the ethnic divide and rigging the referendum. On 16 May 1975, the monarchy was abolished, and Sikkim became the 22nd State of the Union of India. To enable the incorporation of the new State, Parliament amended the Constitution. First, the 35th Amendment set out the terms and conditions of association of Sikkim with the Indian Union. Later, the 36th Amendment repealed the 35th Amendment, and made Sikkim a State, adding its name to the First Schedule of the Constitution.
