If Fundamental Rights are declared but no method exists to enforce them what risk arises?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Rights may become only paper promises
The governing concept is the difference between declaration and enforcement. A Constitution may proclaim equality, liberty, or protection from exploitation, but those promises can be ignored if no institution or procedure allows a person to challenge a violation and obtain relief. Without remedies, officials may face little accountability and citizens may lack a practical means of defending their rights. Option B is therefore correct: rights may remain paper promises in actual life. Option A is the opposite of the likely result, while C and D are unjustified extremes; the absence of a remedy weakens protection but does not make the judiciary or citizenship automatically disappear.
