Arrange the following cases of the Supreme Court of India relating to 'Personal Liberty' in correct chronological order.
i) Maneka Gandhi v. UOI
ii) A.D.M. Jabalpur v. Shivakant Shukla
iii) A.K. Gopalan v. State of Madras
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
A.K. Gopalan was decided on 19 May 1950; ADM Jabalpur on 28 April 1976; and Maneka Gandhi on 25 January 1978. The chronological sequence is therefore iii, ii, i. This identifies decision dates, rather than endorsing the earlier approaches to personal liberty: the nine-judge Puttaswamy judgment had already repudiated ADM Jabalpur by the examination date.
