The 9th Schedule to the Constitution of India was added by the First Amendment Act.

The First Amendment Act, 1951, is one of the most significant amendments to the Indian Constitution, primarily aimed at addressing issues related to land reforms and the validity of laws concerning property rights and freedom of speech. It added the 9th Schedule to protect certain laws from judicial review.

The First Amendment was enacted by the Provisional Parliament. The 9th Schedule was created to ensure that laws placed within it could not be challenged in court on the grounds that they violated fundamental rights, specifically the right to property (Article 31, which was later repealed as a fundamental right). This was done to facilitate land reform legislation.
