    A Right to equality Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Right to life Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Right to property Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Right to freedom of speech Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Right to constitutional remedies Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The 44th Amendment Act, 1978 removed the right to property from Part III (Fundamental Rights) and inserted Article 300A in Part XII, making it a Constitutional Right instead of a Fundamental Right. This was done to enable the State to acquire private property for public purposes more easily and to distribute land to the poor. Article 300A protects the right but it can be restricted by law.
