How do Fundamental Rights place limits on government power?

Correct answer: They require the government to respect citizens’ liberties

Correct answer: A. Fundamental Rights set constitutional standards that the government must respect while making laws, implementing policies, and exercising public power. They protect areas such as equality, personal freedom, religious liberty, protection from exploitation, and cultural and educational interests. If government action violates a protected right, the action may be challenged through constitutional remedies and reviewed by the courts. Option B is wrong because Fundamental Rights are designed to prevent arbitrary power, not permit it. Option C is wrong because the Right to Constitutional Remedies gives people a route to approach courts when rights are violated. Option D is wrong because equality provisions oppose certain forms of discrimination rather than legalise them. Rights do not mean that government can never regulate anything; reasonable lawful regulation may exist, but it must remain within constitutional limits. Memory cue: democracy is not only majority rule; it is government under the Constitution and respect for rights.
