'Right to Privacy' is an integral part of which of the following sections of the Constitution of India?
Fundamental Rights
In the landmark 2017 judgment in Justice K. S. Puttaswamy versus Union of India, a nine-judge bench of the Supreme Court unanimously held that the Right to Privacy is a fundamental right under the Constitution.
The Court located this right primarily within Article 21 (Right to Life and Personal Liberty), together with the freedoms guaranteed in Part III, confirming it as an intrinsic facet of the Fundamental Rights chapter rather than a Directive Principle or Duty.
Hence, Right to Privacy is an integral part of the Fundamental Rights.
