Question

write down provisions of constitution of India that ensure equality

Answer 1

The Constitution provides that all citizens are equal before the law. There can be no discrimination based on a citizen’s caste, sex, religious belief or place of birth etc. In matters relating to employment in government service the State can only lay down specific qualifications and requirements but these cannot be discriminatory in nature.

Access to institutions maintained or aided by the State has to be universal. No one can practice untouchably in matters relating to access to places of religious worship or other public places like wells for drinking water.
