answer the questions 11 to 15: The fundamental principle is that
Article 14 forbids class legislation but permits reasonable classification
for the purpose of legislation which classification must satisfy the twin
tests of classification being founded on an intelligible differentia which distinguishes
persons or things that are grouped together from those that are left out of
the group and that differentia must have a rational nexus to the object
sought to be achieved by the Statute in question. The thrust of Article 14 is
that the citizen is entitled to equality before law and equal protection of
laws. In the very nature of things the society being composed of unequals a
welfare State will have to strive by both executive and legislative action to
help the less fortunate in society to ameliorate their condition so that the
social and economic inequality in the society may be bridged. This would
necessitate a legislative application to a group of citizens otherwise
unequal and amelioration of whose lot is the object of state affirmative action.
In the absence of the doctrine of classification such legislation is likely
to flounder on the bed rock of equality enshrined in Article 14. The Court
realistically appraising the social and economic inequality and keeping in
view the guidelines on which the State action must move as constitutionally
laid down in Part IV of the Constitution evolved the doctrine of
classification. The doctrine was evolved to sustain a legislation or State
action designed to help weaker sections of the society or some such segments
of the society in need of succour. Legislative and executive action may
accordingly be sustained if it satisfies the twin tests of reasonable
classification and the rational principle correlated to the object sought to
be achieved. The concept of equality before the
law does not involve the idea of absolute equality among human beings which
is a physical impossibility. All that Article 14 guarantees is a similarity
of treatment contra-distinguished from identical treatment. Equality before
law means that among equals the law should be equal and should be equally
administered and that the likes should be treated alike. Equality before the
law does not mean that things which are different shall be as though they are
the same. It of course means denial of any special privilege by reason of
birth, creed or the like. The legislation as well as the executive
government, while dealing with diverse problems arising out of an infinite
variety of human relations must of necessity have the power of making special
laws, to attain any particular object and to achieve that object it must have
the power of selection or classification of persons and things upon which
such laws are to operate. 11. Right to equality, one of the fundamental
