The Constitution (35th Amendment) Act of 1974 is related to Sikkim.

The 35th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1974, amended the Constitution of India to include Sikkim as an ‘associate state’. This granted Sikkim representation in the Indian Parliament without fully integrating it into the Union as a state. A new Article 2A and a Tenth Schedule were added to the Constitution for this purpose.

This amendment was a step towards the full integration of Sikkim into India. In 1975, following a referendum, the Monarchy (Chogyal) was abolished, and Sikkim became the 22nd state of India through the 36th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1975. The 35th and 36th Amendments are key historical milestones regarding Sikkim’s accession to India.
