Hi Nisheeth
I think you have this round the wrong way M&R say that a modifiers other than accessibility modifiers are not permitted, ie Constructors can only be declared with public, protected, default(no modifier) or private.
Further from the JLS:
a constructor cannot be abstract, static, final, native, strictfp, or synchronized
