How did the constitution change reservation policies for a particular community in 2000 and how long did these changes last?
The constitution changed reservation policies for the Anglo-Indian community in 2000 with the Constitution (Eighty-second Amendment) Act, which inserted a new clause 3(2) into Article 337. This provided that members of the Anglo-Indian community could be appointed to posts other than, or in addition to, those reserved for the community if they were found qualified on merit as compared with the members of other communities.

The changes did not specify a duration, but it is mentioned in Article 337(1) that "at the end of ten years from the commencement of this Constitution all such reservations shall cease." This suggests that the reservation policy for the Anglo-Indian community would last for ten years after the constitution's commencement.
