State Public Service Commission — Amendments

Amendment	Year	Description	Impact
7th Amendment	1956	The 7th Amendment Act reorganized states and territories, requiring establishment of new SPSCs for newly formed states and adjustment of existing commission jurisdictions to align with the reorganized state boundaries.	Led to creation of multiple new SPSCs and redefinition of territorial jurisdictions, establishing the foundation for state-specific administrative recruitment systems that continue today.
42nd Amendment	1976	While primarily focused on other constitutional changes, the 42nd Amendment indirectly affected SPSC functioning by strengthening central oversight mechanisms and emphasizing the role of constitutional bodies in maintaining administrative integrity.	Enhanced the constitutional status of SPSCs as guardians of merit-based recruitment and strengthened their role in preventing political interference in administrative appointments.
