Concept:
Article 19 of the Indian Constitution guarantees six fundamental freedoms to citizens, such as freedom of speech, assembly, and movement. However, these rights are not absolute.
Step 1: Understanding the nature of Fundamental Rights.
The Constitution balances the individual’s right to liberty with the interests of society, national security, and public order.
Step 2: Analyzing the constitutional limitation.
Clauses (2) to (6) of Article 19 specifically outline the grounds on which the State can impose "reasonable restrictions" on these freedoms. This ensures that the exercise of rights does not undermine the sovereignty or integrity of India.
