<h1>Parliament's Emergency Powers Expanded to Include GST Legislation Under Article 246A Through Constitutional Amendment</h1> The Constitution (101st Amendment) Act, 2016 modifies Article 250(1) by inserting the phrase 'goods and services tax provided under article 246A or' after 'with respect to.' This amendment expands Parliament's emergency powers to explicitly include GST legislation. During a Proclamation of Emergency, Parliament can now make laws on GST matters throughout India, even if they fall under the State List. Such laws cease to have effect six months after the emergency ends, except for actions already taken. This amendment became effective September 16, 2016.
