| N/A | N/A | The period of the Second Phase and Suspension of the Civil Disobedience Movement (1932-1934) predates the Indian Constitution. Therefore, there are no constitutional amendments directly related to this historical phase. The legal framework during this time was governed by British colonial laws and ordinances. | The British government's actions, particularly the promulgation of emergency ordinances, highlighted the absence of fundamental rights and constitutional protections for Indian citizens under colonial rule. This experience later influenced the framers of the Indian Constitution to include robust provisions for fundamental rights and judicial review, ensuring that such arbitrary executive powers could not be exercised in independent India. |
