Consider the following statements-
1. If an ordinary law excludes a citizen from carrying on a particular business, wholly or partially, the reasonableness of such law has to be tested
2. if the State creates a monopoly in favour of a private trade without any reasonable justification, such law is liable to be held unconstitutional by the Courts
3. if a law creates a monopoly in favour of the State itself as a trader, whether to the partial or complete exclusion of citizens, the reasonableness of law cannot be questioned by the Court
4. it is competent for the Union or a State not only to enter into a bid but also to create a monopoly in its own favour in respect of such trade
