Which are the constitutional provisions for the protection of other backward classes (OBCs)?
(1) Article 15 (4)
(2) Article 16 (4)
(3) Article 17 (1)
(4) Article 19 (2)
Answer: C
Articles 15(4) and 16(4) are the constitutional provisions for the protection of the other backward classes, option C.
Article 17(1) abolishes untouchability and Article 19(2) allows restrictions on free speech, so they are not provisions for OBC protection.
Article 15(4) allows special provisions for the advancement of socially and educationally backward classes, and Article 16(4) allows reservation in public appointments for backward classes not adequately represented. Article 17 abolishes untouchability and Article 19(2) lists the reasonable restrictions on free speech.
