state the previous given in the Indian constitution which aim bringing equality
Answers
Answer:
1. EQUALITY RIGHTS (ARTICLES 14 – 18)
1.1 Article 14 of the Constitution of India reads as under:
“The State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or the equal
protection of the laws within the territory of India.”
1.2 The said Article is clearly in two parts – while it commands the State not to deny
to any person ‘equality before law’, it also commands the State not to deny the
‘equal protection of the laws’. Equality before law prohibits discrimination. It is a
negative concept. The concept of ‘equal protection of the laws’ requires the State
to give special treatment to persons in different situations in order to establish
equality amongst all. It is positive in character. Therefore, the necessary
corollary to this would be that equals would be treated equally, whilst un-equals
would have to be treated unequally
