Correct Answer: 42nd Amendment


Solution : The correct option is 42nd Amendment

The 42nd Amendment to the Indian Constitution passed in 1976 is sometimes called the Mini Constitution ​​​​​​because of the substantial changes it made to several distinctive sections of the original text. Some key provisions include the inclusion of Fundamental Duties, the priority of certain Directive Principles over Fundamental Rights during times of emergency, the addition of words from the Preamble such as socialist, secular, and integrity, The provision of an Anti-Defection Law and an increase in the President's power during times of emergency.
