How did the First Amendment Act, 1951 impact the functioning of Public Service Commissions across India?
The First Amendment Act, 1951, did not have a direct impact on the functioning of Public Service Commissions across India. Instead, it added Section 13 to the Constitution which extended the term of office for members of the Public Service Commission for the Dominion of India, who held office immediately before the commencement of this Constitution, until the expiration of their term as determined under the rules applicable immediately before such commencement.
