The Unitary System of Government, where power is concentrated at the central level, ensures uniformity, efficiency, and quick decision-making in governance. This system allows for streamlined implementation of policies and laws without regional variations, leading to administrative simplicity. However, the Directive Principles of State Policy, while essential, are distinct principles in the Indian Constitution, guiding social and economic policies, irrespective of the system of government in place.

Answer : 1. "Legal Right "
Explanation :

The Right to Property in India is recognized as a legal right under Article 300-A of the Indian Constitution. It means that individuals have the right to own and use property, and they cannot be deprived of their property except by authority of law. However, it is no longer a fundamental right, which means that the government can impose reasonable restrictions on property ownership. While individuals have legal protection for their property, it is subject to certain limitations defined by law.
