Select the correct answer using the code given below:

• A. 1 only
• B. 1 and 3 only
• C. 2 and 3 only

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 only

Explanation:

• Statement 1 is correct. The fundamental rights are not absolute but qualified in nature. Courts can put reasonable restrictions on them
• Statement 2 is incorrect. For amendment of fundamental rights, only a special majority of 2/3rd members present, and voting is required in both houses of parliament.
• Statement 3 is incorrect. It is not always true. For example, If a law is made to give effect to Art 39(b) & (c) then that law shall be immune from invalidation on grounds of violation of Art 14 & 19.
