Answer

D

Explanation

In 1978, 44th amendment eliminated the right to acquire, hold and dispose of property as a fundamental right.
It was made legal right instead of fundamental one.
Article 19(1)(f), which guarantees the citizens the right to acquire, hold and dispose of property and article 31 relating to compulsory acquisition of property have been omitted.
