Option 1: 35th Amendment Act: This option cannot be the correct answer because it does not pertain to the admission of Sikkim into the Union of India.

Option 2: 36th Amendment Act: This is the correct answer. The 36th Amendment Act, passed in 1975, was responsible for Sikkim`s admission into the Union of India. Prior to this amendment, Sikkim was a protectorate under the Indian government but not a full-fledged state.

Option 4: 38th Amendment Act: This option cannot be the correct answer as it is not the correct Amendment Act related to Sikkim`s admission into the Union of India.
