Explanation:

Article 14 of the Constitution of India guarantees the right to equality before the law and equal protection of the laws. It prohibits discrimination and mandates that the state shall not deny any person equality before the law or equal protection of the laws within the territory of India. If a legislation confers unguided and uncontrolled discretionary power on the executive or administrative authority, it violates the principle of equality enshrined in Article 14. Such legislation would be considered arbitrary and against the spirit of equal treatment under the law.
