If a group repeatedly faces discrimination, which significance of rights becomes clear?

Correct answer: Providing equality and protection against discrimination

Correct answer: A. Repeated discrimination shows why rights must protect equal status and human dignity. The principle of equality says that people should not be treated unfairly because of characteristics such as caste, religion, sex, language, or social background. Rights give affected groups a lawful basis to report unfair treatment, demand equal opportunities, and seek remedies through public authorities or courts. This does not mean that every person receives identical treatment in every situation; it means that unjust discrimination must not be accepted and genuine disadvantages may require protection. B is wrong because rights challenge, rather than preserve, discrimination. C is wrong because discrimination cannot cancel a group’s citizenship. D is wrong because seeking justice is part of rights protection. Memory cue: equality turns “weaker group” from a reason for exclusion into a reason for protection.
