Factual: In order to construct a new roadway, the Prayagraj State Government made the decision to purchase a plot of land owned by Mr. Rajan. Mr. Rajan wasn't informed of the acquisition or given any compensation because the government didn't follow the proper acquisition procedure. Mr. Rajan made the decision to sue to stop the transaction, claiming that his rights had been violated.
Question
Which Article of the Indian Constitution is Mr. Rajan most likely to use to contest the State Government's purchase without paying for it and without following the required procedure?
Article 21 - Protection of life and personal liberty
Article 19(1)(g) - Right to practice any profession or to carry on any occupation, trade or business
Article 300-A - No person shall be deprived of his property save by the authority of law.
Article 14 - Right to equality
No one may be deprived of their property without the authorization of the law, according to Article 300-A. This means that the State can only take someone's property if a legislation has been passed authorising the taking and the legal process specified in the law is followed. In this case, Mr. Rajan can use Article 300-A to contest the purchase because the State Government did not follow the necessary procedure.Hence option C is correct option .
