In Bangladesh, the procedure for amending the Constitution is outlined in Articles 142 and 143 of the Constitution of Bangladesh. Here is a simplified overview of the process:


1. Proposal: An amendment to the Constitution can be proposed in one of two ways:

   a. By a member of Parliament (MP): Any MP can propose an amendment.

   b. By the government: The government may also propose an amendment.


2. Passage in Parliament:

   a. If the proposal is made by an MP, it must be supported by at least one-tenth of the total number of MPs.

   b. If the government proposes the amendment, it does not require a specific number of supporters.
