Q. Read the following paragraph and answer the Question :
On the surface this amendment might create the impression that State is now free to impose any kind of restriction on the enjoyment of property … and without paying any thing to the expropriated owner in return of property taken away from him. Nothing, however could be farther from the true Constitutional position. The reality is that now the right to property of both, the citizen as well as the non-citizen, is more firmly and comprehensively secured under the Constitution than ever before. It is secured more firmly than before because any significant amendment in the existing position will now require not only the procedure laid down in the main part of Article 368, but also the consent of the States as prescribed in the proviso of that Article. It is secured more comprehensively because the State will not now be able to acquire private property without showing public purpose and without paying full compensation or market value of the property. Also, the State may now be required to pay compensation of property without actually transferring to itself the ownership or possession of the property. In other words, the courts in India will now be free to give the same quality and extent of protection to private property as the courts in the United States give under the ‘due process’ clause and the American Doctrine of ’eminent domain’ and ‘police power’ may again be found to be relevant for India.
In the light of above answer the following :

Before which amendment to the Constitution, Right to Property was a Fundamental Right ?
– 42nd
– 44th
