Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C

Explanation

The correct match is Option C (3-4-2-1) based on these landmark Supreme Court judgments:

  • Golaknath Case (1967): The Court examined the validity of the 1st, 4th, and 7th Constitutional Amendments, famously ruling that Parliament could not abridge Fundamental Rights.
  • Minerva Mills Case (1980): This judgment struck down parts of the 42nd Amendment Act, reinforcing the Basic Structure doctrine by asserting that Parliament's amending power is limited.
  • Indra Sawhney Case (1992): Often called the Mandal Case, it upheld the Mandal Commission report and defined the extent of reservation under Article 16(4).
  • Shreya Singhal Case (2015): The Court struck down Section 66A of the Information Technology Act, 2000, for being unconstitutionally vague and violating the freedom of speech guaranteed under Article 19(1)(a).
