Options:

Right to form association

Right to education

Right to life

Right to property

Correct Answer:

Right to property

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 4 - Right to property

The right to property in India is no longer a fundamental right enshrined in the Constitution. It was removed as a fundamental right and placed under the category of legal rights by the 44th Amendment Act of 1978. The amendment added Article 300-A, which states that "no person shall be deprived of his property save by authority of law."

Part III is titled "Fundamental Rights" and contains Articles 12 to 35 in which the 6 fundamental rights are mentioned. These articles outline the basic rights guaranteed to all Indian citizens, including:

Right to Equality (Articles 14-18): Ensures equal treatment before the law and prohibits discrimination based on factors like religion, race, caste, sex, or place of birth.
Right to Freedom (Articles 19-22): Guarantees freedoms like speech, assembly, movement, residence, and profession (subject to certain restrictions).
Right against Exploitation (Articles 23-24): Prohibits forced labor, human trafficking, and child labor.
Right to Freedom of Religion (Articles 25-28): Protects freedom of conscience, religious practice, and propagation.
Cultural and Educational Rights (Articles 29-30): Recognizes the right of minorities to conserve their culture and language and establish educational institutions.
Right to Constitutional Remedies (Article 32): Ensures the right to enforce fundamental rights through legal action in the Supreme Court.
