What is the Ninth Schedule?
The Schedule contains a list of central and state laws which cannot be challenged in courts and was added by the Constitution (First Amendment) Act, 1951.
The first Amendment added 13 laws to the Schedule. Subsequent amendments in various years have taken the number of protected laws to 284 currently.
Are Laws in the Ninth Schedule completely Exempt from Judicial Scrutiny?
I R Coelho v. State of Tamil Nadu (2007): It was held that every law must be tested under Article 14, 19 and 21 if it came into force after 24th April 1973.
That means the Ninth Schedule is not completely immune from judicial review.
