Answer
(a) Three freedoms given under Article 19 are:
- Freedom of speech and expression
- Freedom to assemble peacefully without arms.
- Freedom to form associations and unions.
(b) These freedoms imply that the citizens of India are provided with freedom to live anywhere and move freely across India, practice any profession, assemble peacefully, form associations etc. The state government cannot make laws to curtail these freedoms. Freedom of speech and expression is provided which includes freedom of press.
(c) There are some restriction on the Right to Freedom. Right to Freedom does not mean that the State cannot make laws for the public good and protection of trade and profession. Similarly Right to reside and settle in any part of India cannot go against the laws of a particular territory where larger national interest is involved.
