What shows the importance of independent judiciary in protecting human rights?

Correct answer: Judiciary can examine rights violations independently of power

Judicial independence means that courts can decide cases according to the Constitution and law without improper pressure from the government, powerful groups, or public officials. This is important when the alleged violator is itself a state authority. An independent court can examine evidence, hear the affected person, declare unlawful action invalid, and order an appropriate remedy. Thus option A correctly explains how courts protect human rights. Option B confuses judicial review with obedience to government; option C reverses the role of courts, which provide a forum for complaints; and option D is false because protection of rights is a central judicial function.
