In Episode 14, we learn of an exception to Article 15 (1).

Article 15 (3) gives the authority to the state to make special laws for women and children. Keeping in view the social and economic backwardness of women in India, if governments enact any law that can uplift women, it would be considered constitutional according to Article 15 (3). It will also be considered as an exception to Article 15 (1).
