Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: B

Explanation

The correct match is as follows:

  • A. K. Gopalan vs. State of Madras (1950): The Supreme Court examined whether the Preventive Detention Act was ultra vires the Fundamental Rights, particularly Articles 19 and 21. It initially took a narrow view of "procedure established by law".
  • K. M. Nanavati vs. State of Bombay (1961): This case dealt with the conflict between the Governor's power to suspend a sentence under Article 161 and the Supreme Court's power while a matter is sub-judice.
  • Maneka Gandhi vs. Union of India (1978): The court examined if the right to go abroad was part of Article 19(1)(a) or 19(1)(g); it famously ruled that it is part of "personal liberty" under Article 21.
  • Shyam Narayan Chouksey vs. Union of India (2016): This case addressed whether the National Anthem must be played in cinema halls before movies.
