[The Governors’ Provinces and the Chief Commissioners’ Provinces specified in the Schedule will be automatically within the jurisdiction of the Federation of India. As regards Indian States, some procedure will have to be prescribed for determining which of them are to be included in the schedule initially. Under the Act of 1935, accession was to be evidenced by “Instruments of Accession” executed by the Rulers. If it is considered undesirable to use this term or adopt this procedure, some kind of ratification may have to be prescribed.
If any of the Provinces specified in the schedule should be partitioned before the Constitution comes into operation, the schedule will have to be amended accordingly.]
