UPSC 2005: Consider the following statements: 1. Article 301 pertains to the Right to Property. 2. Right to Property is a legal right but not a Fundamental Right. 3. Article 300 A was inserted in the Constitution of India by the Congress Government at the Centre by the 44th Constitutional Amendment. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
(a)2 only
(b)2 and 3
(c)1 and 3
(d)1, 2 and 3
Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) 2 only
Article 301 deals with freedom of trade, commerce and intercourse, not property, so statement 1 is wrong. The 44th Constitutional Amendment Act 1978 (passed by the Janata government) deleted the property right from Part III and introduced Article 300A, making it only a legal/constitutional right; thus statement 2 is correct while statement 3 (crediting Congress for the insertion) is incorrect. Hence only statement 2 is right. ([edurev.in](https://edurev.in/t/233667/Judiciary-Legal-Rights-Solved-Questions--1995-2009-?utm_source=openai))
