Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C

Explanation

Originally, the Right to Property was a Fundamental Right guaranteed under Article 19(1)(f) and Article 31 of the Indian Constitution. However, due to conflicts regarding land reforms and compensation, the 44th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1978, abolished the Right to Property as a Fundamental Right. It was subsequently re-inserted into the Constitution as a legal or constitutional right under Article 300A in Part XII. This article stipulates that "no person shall be deprived of his property save by authority of law." While it is no longer a Fundamental Right (meaning it cannot be enforced directly through Article 32), it remains a valid constitutional right. Therefore, both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
