Indian Constitution is both rigid and flexible in the following manner:
(i) The procedure of amendment is neither as easy as in England nor as difficult as in United States.
(ii) The Federal Provision of the Constitution cannot be amended easily. e.g., the division of powers between the centre and the states.
(iii) In such cases, a constitutional amendment must be passed by the two-third members of the Parliament and ratified by one-half of the states before sending the bill to the Parliament.
(iv) In such cases, only two-third majorities of members' presence and voting is needed. Consent of the states is not needed.
(v) All constitutional amendments can be initiated only in the Union Parliament and not in any State Legislature.
