Explanation:

article 14 (1) of constitution of india states equality before law - every person is equal in the eyest of law and no one is entitled of special priviledges

article 14(2) of constitution of india states equal protection of law-that means every person will be proctected equally. here what makes the difference is the word “protection” . that means, law will provide protection (facilities) to every person according to their situation in the scenario. that further establishes the ground for reservation or quota system. to bring up the supressed group. for eg. a well earning person dont need subsidies but a lower middle class family needs it. so govt provides subsidy to lower middle class people to help them lower their financial burden. hence it is called the protection by law, to help supressed people stand on the same platform as others.

Indian Citizens living abroad are protected under Article 21 of Indian Constitution.
