Solution
The correct option is A Security
The Constitution guarantees freedom of speech and expression but this freedom is subject to reasonable restrictions imposed by the state relating to (a) defamation (b) contempt of court (c) decency or morality (d) security of the state (e) friendly relations with foreign states; (f) incitement to an offense; (g) public order; (h)maintenance of sovereignty and integrity of India. The framers of the Constitution were also aware that the limitations so imposed by the state in this regard must be “reasonable”. Reasonableness of state actions is subject to judicial scrutiny. Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the factors are promoted by fundamental rights, hence, incorrect.
