Source: footnotes to each article in the official text, Laws of Bangladesh, read October 2026. Footnotes cite only changes still visible in today's text; earlier, replaced changes and court rulings are added where known.
Dates are enactment dates (15th: passed 30-06-2011, signed 03-07-2011; 10th and 11th: dates passed; 9th: month only). No 18th Amendment had been enacted as of October 2026; the July Charter referendum of 12-02-2026 approved reforms but no amendment Act has followed yet.
This ledger records the 17 amendment Acts passed since the Constitution was adopted on 4 November 1972, together with court rulings that struck down or restored amendments.
For every article it shows a timeline from 1972 to today, the current text with added and removed wording marked, and a numbered list of each change and the amendment that made it.
From the footnotes to each article in the official text published on Laws of Bangladesh (bdlaws.minlaw.gov.bd), with earlier replaced changes and court rulings added where known. Always check the official text before relying on it.
