Amendments to the Constitution of Bangladesh

Amendments to the Constitution of Bangladesh involve making changes to the country's supreme law. The Constitution of the People's Republic of Bangladesh was adopted by the Constituent Assembly on 4 November 1972 and came into effect on 16 December 1972, one year after Bangladesh's victory in the War of Liberation. As of 2018, the Constitution has been amended 17 times. The procedure for constitutional amendments is outlined in Article 142, which mandates that a bill must be presented in the Jatiya Sangsad with the support of no less than two-thirds of all its members (233 MPs).
