Correct Answer - Option 4 : Liberty is the maintenance of conditions for the growth of human personality.

1) Liberty is the absence of restraint on human action → Every constitution has some sort of restriction for people to maintain law and order which is different from liberty. Hence, false.
2) Liberty is what law permits people to perform → Every country has a set of laws to govern their people but not every country gives liberty to their people. Hence, false.
3) Liberty is the ability to do what one desires → It is not true. Criminals want to commit crimes and it is their desire and they can't be allowed to do that. Hence, false.
4) Liberty is the maintenance of conditions for the growth of human personality. → True as also mentioned in the given statement that liberty gives the opportunity to people so that they can grow and become the best version of themselves. 

Hence, liberty is the maintenance of conditions for the growth of human personality.
