the minimum thing to produce is the general provisions of any development or constitution or its amendment, and the maximum is to go into the details of clauses and their specifications. the main wording and specified terms shud be kept in mind not as it is all the sentences. the maximum relevant details with their critical analysis u produce, the maximum u score.
