योग्य पर्याय निवडा :

The correct answer is Option C (a and b).

Key Points:
• Constitutional Grounding: Under Article 19(1)(a) of the Indian Constitution, all citizens enjoy the fundamental right to freedom of speech and expression. However, this right is not absolute and is circumscribed by reasonable grounds catalogued in Article 19(2).
• Grounds Under Article 19(2): Clause (2) permits reasonable restrictions imposed in the interests of the sovereignty and integrity of India, the security of the State, friendly relations with foreign States, public order, decency or morality, or in relation to contempt of court, defamation, or incitement to an offence. The words 'sovereignty and integrity of India' were inserted via the 16th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1963.
• Analysis of Options: Statements (a) and (b) pertain directly to 'sovereignty' and 'integrity', qualifying them squarely under Article 19(2). In contrast, 'interest of the general public' is a ground for restriction under Article 19(5) (for movement, residence) and Article 19(6) (for profession/trade), not Article 19(2).
• Key Takeaway: Ground 'interest of general public' does not apply to speech and expression under Clause (2).
• Key Takeaway: Article 19(2) permits reasonable restrictions on speech and expression based on sovereignty, integrity, security of the State, public order, and morality.
