Article 19(1) of the Constitution guarantees six fundamental freedoms. Article 19(1)(b) specifically grants the right “to assemble peaceably and *without arms*”. Option B states “Assemble peaceably and with arms”, which directly contradicts the constitutional provision that requires assemblies to be without arms. Therefore, assembling peaceably *with* arms is not a freedom guaranteed under Article 19(1)(b).

Article 19(1)(b) guarantees the freedom to assemble peaceably and *without arms*.

The other options correctly reflect freedoms guaranteed under Article 19: A) Freedom of speech and expression (19(1)(a)), C) Freedom to form associations and unions (19(1)(c)), and D) Freedom to move freely throughout the territory of India (19(1)(d)). All these freedoms are subject to reasonable restrictions that can be imposed by the State under Article 19(2) to 19(6).
