What position do Fundamental Rights give citizens before the state?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They make citizens valid claimants and rights-holders

Direct answer: B. Fundamental Rights recognise citizens as rights-holders who can make lawful claims against unconstitutional state action. They give people a constitutional basis to demand equality, liberty, religious freedom, protection from exploitation, and other guaranteed freedoms. They also make government accountable because public power must be exercised according to the Constitution, not according to arbitrary choice. A is the opposite of the democratic idea: citizens are not property of the state. C is wrong because rights do not place anyone outside the law; citizens remain subject to valid laws and reasonable constitutional restrictions. D is wrong because rights enable participation and legal challenge rather than passive observation. A right is meaningful when a person can claim it and obtain a remedy when it is violated. Memory cue: Fundamental Rights change citizens from subjects of unchecked power into constitutional rights-holders.
