Abstract
The concept that all Fundamental Rights, should be read as supplementary to each other, was first enunciated, in the famous case of R.C.Cooper v. Union of India,' which states the Fundamental Rights are not exclusive, and just because the limits under one right is satisfied, does not mean, that the limits, of another right need not be satisifed. This overturned the previously held position of the majority in A.K.Gopalan v. State of Madrns,? which states that any challenge to any right under Part III (the Fundamental Right Chapter), must be specified. But the minority judgement, stated that the right under Article 21 of life and 'personal liberty' cannot be separated from the 'liberties' stated under Art. 19 but it has to satisfy the limits of Art.19 specifically.
