Amendment & Miscellaneous
The Indian Independence Act, 1947, and the Government of India Act, 1935 (with all its amending/supplementing enactments, but excluding the Abolition of Privy Council Jurisdiction Act, 1949), are repealed.
This is the Constitution's final article - formally repealing the key pieces of British colonial-era legislation (the Indian Independence Act and the Government of India Act, 1935) that had previously governed India's constitutional structure, marking the definitive legal end of that colonial legal framework and its replacement by this new, independent Constitution.
This is the specific provision that formally and definitively ended the legal authority of Britain's Government of India Act, 1935 - the document that had served as India's de facto constitution during the last years of colonial rule - clearing the way for this new Constitution to be India's sole foundational legal document.
