Which among the following provisions of the Constitution of India mandates criminalization of prohibited conduct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Article 17 (abolition of untouchability) and Article 23 (prohibition of traffic in human beings and forced labour) expressly declare that the prohibited conduct shall be an offence punishable in accordance with law, so the answer is "Article 17 and 23 only". Article 24 prohibits child labour in hazardous employment but does not itself declare it an offence.
