All Amendments of the Indian Constitution at a glance

58. The Constitution (Fifty-eighth Amendment) Act, 1987—There has been general demand for the
publication of authoritative text of the Constitution in Hindi. It is imperative to have an authoritative
text of the Constitution for facilitating its use in the legal process. Any Hindi version of the
Constitution should not only conform to the Hindi translation published by the Constituent Assembly,
but should be in conformity, with the language style and terminology adopted in the authoritative texts
of Central Acts in Hindi. The Constitution has been amended to empower President of India to
publish under his authority the translation of the Constitution in Hindi signed by the Members of the
Constituent Assembly with such modification as may be necessary to bring it in conformity with the
language, style and terminology adopted in the authoritative texts of Central Acts in Hindi language.
President has also been authorised to publish the translation in Hindi of every amendment of the
Constitution made in English.
