Answer: Article 30
Notes: The Supreme Court has recently emphasized that the intent of Article 30 of the Indian Constitution is not to marginalize minorities by suggesting they have the upper hand in administering educational institutions. Article 30 safeguards the rights of minorities, both religious and linguistic, to establish and administer educational institutions of their choice. The provision promotes equality and prohibits discrimination by stating that the government should not discriminate against minority-managed institutions while providing aid. Additionally, Article 30 (1A) addresses the fixation of the amount for the acquisition of property of educational institutions established by minority groups, further reinforcing the protection of minority rights in the country.
