What does the fundamental right to livelihood and profession amount to? This episode of The Longest Constitution looks at the delicate balance between the moral obligations of the state and the fundamental rights of its citizens, in this case - a group of butchers, cow slaughter, and the question of livelihood. We also look at the wide definition of ‘work’ and the purpose of the Fifth Schedule in protecting the rights of the Scheduled Tribes and ponder upon the idea of a ‘workspace’.
