indian-polity-economyfundamental-rights-duties
- ARight to equality
- BRight against exploitation
- CRight to property
- DRight to carry on trade and business
Explanation
The right to property was deleted from the list of fundamental rights by the 44th Constitutional Amendment in 1978; it survives only as a constitutional (legal) right under Article 300A. The right to equality, the right against exploitation, and the right to carry on trade and business (under Article 19(1)(g)) remain guaranteed fundamental rights. Hence the Constitution does not guarantee the right to property as a fundamental right.
