Read the following passage and answer the question that follows. Your answer to this question should be based on the passage only.Government may have to take steps which would otherwise be an infringement on the Fundamental Rights of individuals, such as acquiring a person's land against his will, or refusing permission for putting up a building, but the larger public interest for which these are done must be authorized by the people (Parliament).
