Detailed Solution

The above statement is True. The right to property is not a fundamental right but a constitutional right.
One of the Constitution's seven fundamental rights protected by Part III was the right to property. Article 19(1) states that every citizen has the right to acquire, possess, and dispose of the property. However, the 44th Amendment Act of 1978 ended the status of the right to property as a fundamental right. Instead, the Act changed Part XII to include a new Article 300A under the heading "Right to Property", changing it to a constitutional right. Even though it is no longer a fundamental right, the property right is still legal or constitutional.
