Right to property is a ______________ under the Constitution of India.

Correct option is A

The correct answer is (a) Constitutional Right.
· Right to Property was initially a Fundamental Right under Article 31 of the Constitution of India. However, it was removed from the list of Fundamental Rights by the 44th Amendment Act of 1978.
· After this amendment, the Right to Property became a Constitutional Right under Article 300A. This means that while citizens cannot claim it as a fundamental right, it is still protected by law, and the government can only take private property for public use with appropriate compensation.
