Question

Accepted Answer

Article 26 of the Constitution of India guarantees the freedom to manage religious affairs. According to this article, every religious denomination or any section thereof has the right: (a) to establish and maintain institutions for religious and charitable purposes; (b) to manage its own affairs in matters of religion; (c) to own and acquire movable and immovable property; and (d) to administer such property in accordance with law. Therefore, Statement 3 is incorrect as the administration of property must be in accordance with law, not entirely free from state regulations.
