Solution
Right to Equality offers every person in India equality before Law.
No person is above the Law and there is no distinction between a political leader, government official and an ordinary citizen.
The exception is the provision of reservations for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled tribes and Other Backward Castes since equality means giving everyone an equal opportunity which leads to provision of special treatment to ensure equal opportunity.
