Court case(1973) 4 SCC 225

The head of a Kerala math challenged the Kerala land reform laws, and the challenge widened into an attack on the 24th, 25th and 29th Amendments, which had been passed to overcome Golaknath and to place land reform laws beyond challenge.

By a majority of 7 to 6 the largest bench in the court's history held that Parliament may amend any provision of the Constitution, including fundamental rights, but may not alter or destroy its basic structure. Golaknath was overruled to the extent it denied the power to amend fundamental rights. The part of Article 31C that excluded judicial review was struck down.
