Article 3 Of Indian Constitution

Answer 3

Indian Constitution, 1950
The Indian Constitution doesn't contain any section, it only contains the Article. But I will try out to make the differance between Article and Section.

Article : There is much differrance between the normall term article and Article in Indian Constitution. As Indian Constitution, A contribution written by one or more persons and Each numbered paragraph in the Constitution is referred to as an “Article”, its like A manuscript or part of a larger work such as an encyclopedia.
We can say that Article in Indian Constitution are A work of prose, usually on a specific topic, identified by its title (or heading). Form these Articles the Powers are derived to Judicary, Executive and Administrative. It tell's about their Appointment or Removal and other important aspects.

Sections : A section of the statutes is the primary division of a statute or can be said as Sections are also the divisions in bills or acts. The Section generally means the Part of such Act or Bill. Thus we can say that a Section is the Part of Statute which tells us that in such and such situation such and such thing be done. For example :- In a Case of Murder the Indian Penal Code, 1860, Section 302 lays down the principles of the Murder only and Section 307 lays down the principles of Attempt to Murder.

Normally, No powers are drawn from it but in Certian contains they also become the Article and the Principle of such Section shall apply as Article. As in Consumper Protection Act, 1986, the power to establish special Court and their removal and appointment are give. And in that situtation the Sections of Consumer Proctection's Section same power and meaning are given as of Sections.
