{'british citizen': [0, 1, 0, 0], 'personal liberty': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'freedom': [1, 1, 2, 2], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13]}

The correct answer is option 1, which is `Freedom of trade and profession`. This means that a British citizen staying in India cannot claim the right to conduct a trade or profession freely as per Indian laws. This option is unique as the rest of the options, namely `Equality before the Law` (option 2), `Protection of life and personal liberty` (option 3) and `Freedom of religion` (option 4) are fundamental human rights granted by Indian Constitution to every person, regardless of their citizenship. Everyone residing in India, including foreigners, has the right to be treated equally before the law, to have their life and personal liberty protected, and to practice their religion freely. However, `Freedom of trade and profession` (option-1) is a right reserved for Indian citizens and not extended to foreign nationals.
