Question

mention 5 limitation on our fundamental rights​

Answer 1

Answer:

Unlike in west, in India fundamental rights are legal rights and not natural rights (in west concept of fundamental rights has religious origins). In india, fundamental rights are special legal rights provided in constitution itself and remedies for them also a fundamental right, people can directly approach high courts and Supreme Court.

Fundamental rights in india have two kind of limitations. One is inbuilt limitations. Every fundamental right in india has a “but government can” clause in end, that means government can violate them for affirmative action. Before 1974, keshave nanda bharti case, government could take away fundamental rights by constitutional amendment, as it is a legal right. But since then basic structure of constitution doctrine has been invented by supreme court. This is not a legislation as court doesn’t have power but a tool for interpretation. It takes into account substantive nature of fundamental rights. So somewhat limitation has been cured.
