Question

    Which Article of the Indian Constitution states that no

    person shall be deprived of their property except by authority of law? 
    A Article 16(2) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Article 29(2) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Article 30(1) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Article 31(1) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Article 31(1) of the Indian Constitution originally guaranteed that "no person shall be deprived of their property save by authority of law." This provision protected the right to property, which was later amended by the 44th Amendment, shifting the right to property to Article 300A as a legal right, not a fundamental one.
