Outcomes of Kesavananda Bharati Case
Upheld the validity of the 24th amendment: SC held that Parliament had the power to amend any or all provisions of the Constitution (including FRs), with a condition that the amendments should not alter, damage or destroy the essential features or the fundamental principles of the Constitution. This came to be known as the “Basic Structure Doctrine”.
Corrected judgments of the Golaknath case: SC held that Article 368 contained both the power and the procedure for amending the Constitution and that amending powers and legislative powers of Parliament were different.
Other judgments: SC upheld the 25th and 29th Amendments except for the parts that curtailed its power of judicial review and also asserted that the Preamble is a part of the Constitution and hence amendable.
