<h1>1988 Amendment Extends Presidential Proclamation in Punjab, Modifies Emergency Grounds to Address Terrorism, Suspends Certain Rights Temporarily.</h1> The Constitution (59th Amendment) Act, 1988, addresses the extension of a Presidential Proclamation in Punjab due to ongoing terrorism and instability. It proposes amending Article 356(5) to allow extending the Proclamation up to three years. Additionally, it suggests modifying Article 352 to include 'internal disturbance' as a ground for declaring an Emergency in Punjab, replacing 'armed rebellion.' This amendment aims to curb terrorism effectively. Consequent amendments to Articles 358 and 359 would allow the suspension of Article 19 and other provisions in Part III, except Article 20, during such an Emergency. These amendments are temporary, lasting two years.
