    Question

    The 44th Constitutional Amendment 1978 was –

    A.

    Amended Article 32

    B.

    Deleted Article 31 and introduced Article 300A

    C.

    Deleted Article 32 from Part III of the Constitution

    D.

    Introduced a new Article 300 in the Constitution

    Correct option is B

    The 44th Constitutional Amendment, 1978, deleted Article 31 (Right to Property) from the list of Fundamental Rights and introduced Article 300A under Part XII of the Constitution, making the right to property a legal right rather than a fundamental right.
    Information Booster:
    The right to property was originally a fundamental right under Article 31, but the 44th Amendment changed this, making it a statutory right under Article 300A, which states that no person shall be deprived of their property except by authority of law.
    Additional Knowledge:
    · Article 32: Was not amended or deleted.
    · Article 300: Already existed before the 44th Amendment, relating to suits against the government.
