    • Right to Freedom of Religion (Article 25-28)
    • Cultural and Educational Rights (Article 29-30)

  • The Fundamental Rights guaranteed by Articles 14, 20, 21, 21A, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28 are available to all persons whether citizens or foreigners.
  • The following fundamental rights are available only to citizens of India and not to foreigners:-
    • Article 15- Prohibition of discrimination on grounds of race, religion, caste, gender or place of birth
    • Article 16- Equality of opportunity in matters of public employment

  • Hence, Statements 1, 2 and 3 are correct statements.
  • Article 21 includes the Protection of Life and Personal Liberty. This is available to citizens as well as foreigners. Hence, Statement 4 is incorrect.
  • Article 26 includes freedom to manage religious affairs. This is available to citizens as well as foreigners. Hence, statement 5 is incorrect.
