The Second Amendment to the Constitution of Pakistan (Urdu: آئین پاکستان میں دوسری ترمیم) became a part of the Constitution of Pakistan on 7 September 1974 under the Government of Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. It declared that Ahmadis (whom the amendment calls Qadianis) were non-Muslims. It also made way for the establishment of a centralized citizen registry.
