Correct Answer - Option 1 : Article 14: Equality before law

The correct answer is Article 14: Equality before law

Article 14:

• Equality before the law.
• The state shall not deny to any person equality before the law or equal protection law within the territory of India.

 Article 18:

• According to Article 18, any person who is not a citizen of India who has given some title like Sir, lord, etc by his country cannot be accepted in India without the assent of the President.
• While any citizen of India cannot accept any title given from a foreign country.

•  Article 361 mentions that the President of India or the Governors of the states are not answerable to any court for the exercise of their powers/duties and no civil or criminal proceedings can lie against them in any court during their term of office.
• As per article 361-A, no civil or court proceedings can occur for a person for publishing any substantially true report of either House of the Parliament and State Legislature.
• No member of Parliament (article 105) and State Legislature (article 194) shall be liable to any court proceedings in respect of anything said or any vote given by him in Parliament or any committee.
  The foreign sovereigns (rulers), ambassadors and diplomats enjoy immunity from criminal and civil proceedings.

It's an exception that's why it's treated differently.
