Rights in the Indian Constitution

Correct answer: A. Freedom of peaceful assembly

Explanation: The governing concept is the freedom to assemble peaceably and without arms under Article 19(1)(b). A peaceful protest is a form of collective civic participation through which citizens express demands and influence public discussion. The freedom is not absolute and remains subject to constitutionally permitted reasonable restrictions. Option A is correct; B concerns property, while C and D are not constitutional freedoms.

Correct answer: A. Courts

Explanation: When a legal or Fundamental Right is violated, a citizen may approach the appropriate court for a remedy. Courts can issue directions, orders, or writs within their jurisdiction and can require authorities to respect constitutional protections. Option A is correct because judicial remedies make rights enforceable rather than merely declaratory. A shopkeeper, player, or weather department has no general constitutional power to grant such legal relief, so B, C, and D are distractors.

Correct answer: A. Protection of Fundamental Rights

Explanation: The right to constitutional remedies is connected with the enforcement and protection of Fundamental Rights. It enables a person to approach the Supreme Court under Article 32, and appropriate High Courts under Article 226, when rights are infringed. Option A is correct because a right becomes meaningful when a person can seek judicial enforcement. Crop production, traffic rules, and sports awards do not define this constitutional guarantee.

Correct answer: A. Power to approach court to protect rights

Explanation: The governing concept is the Right to Constitutional Remedies, which makes protection of Fundamental Rights enforceable rather than merely theoretical. It allows a citizen to approach the Supreme Court under Article 32 and, where appropriate, a High Court under Article 226 for relief against a rights violation. It does not grant a general power to avoid taxes, make laws or cancel elections, so option A is correct.

Correct answer: A. To protect citizens' freedom and equality

Explanation: Fundamental Rights protect essential freedoms, equality and dignity against arbitrary state action and other forms of discrimination. They also allow citizens to approach courts for enforcement when these rights are violated. Tax collection, stopping trade or recruiting soldiers are not the central purpose of Fundamental Rights. Therefore option A correctly identifies their protective democratic function.
