How do the provisions of article 31A relate to those of article 31B?
The provisions of article 31A relate to those of article 31B in that both articles aim to validate certain laws, acts and regulations that may have been inconsistent with the rights conferred by Part III of the Indian Constitution. Article 31A provides a general validation for any law enacted or regulation made under the Ninth Schedule, while article 31B specifically validates those laws and acts mentioned in the Ninth Schedule, which might be deemed void due to inconsistency with the rights conferred by Part III of the Constitution. Article 31C further elaborates on this by allowing for the enactment of laws that give effect to certain directive principles without being considered void on account of any inconsistency with the rights guaranteed in Part III of the Constitution.
