Q. Which important human right is protected in Article 21 of the Constitution of India?
Answer: Right to life and liberty
Notes: Article 21 states that no one maybe deprived of their life or liberty unless it is by due procedure of law. In the first 25 years or so, this Article was very narrowly interpreted by the Supreme Court to mean that no matter what the procedure of law stated, as long as it was followed, deprivation of one's life and liberty was not illegal.
