[Note 1] Although the last article of the Constitution is Article 395, the total number, as of March 2013 is 448. New articles added through amendments have been inserted in the relevant location in the original constitution.

For example, Article 21A pertaining to Right to Education was inserted by the 86th Amendment Act.
