There are restrictions on the right to freedom. Right to freedom never allows a person to violate the freedom of his or her fellow citizens. The Right to freedom has to be exercised in such a manner that it does not harm or cause injuries to other people. There could be reasonable restrictions on the right to freedom when the larger interest of the society is taken into account.

- People can live in any part of the country. It is their fundamental right, which comes under Right to freedom.
- People have the right to go to any place and carry on with any trade, business or occupation.
- Even if there is restriction on visit to border areas, it needs to be understood that Government has every right to protect and secure the borders of the nation from external aggression, so if the Government deems it fit that certain restrictions should be there in the border areas, then it needs to be understood that it is done keeping in mind the larger security issues of the country.
