Section 3 of LHD (C.o.N) Act : Section 3: Amendment Of The Sixth Schedule To The Constitution

Explanation using Example

Imagine a local government official in Mizoram is tasked with updating legal documents and government records to reflect changes in district names as per constitutional amendments. Upon the enactment of The Lushai Hills District (Change of Name) Act, 1954, the official must ensure that all references to the "Lushai Hills District" in the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution are updated. This includes:

• Inserting a new sub-paragraph that specifies the "Mizo District" comprises the area previously known as "Lushai Hills District".
• Amending sub-paragraphs to include "and the Mizo District" after references to other districts like "United Khasi Jaintia Hills District".
• Replacing "The Lushai Hills District" with "The Mizo District" in all parts of the table in the Sixth Schedule.

This change would ensure that all constitutional references are consistent with the new district name, affecting how government business is conducted and how regional laws are applied in the Mizo District.
