What protection do weaker sections get from an independent judiciary?

Correct answer: They can seek justice even against powerful people or the government

Correct answer: A. An independent judiciary can hear cases without taking orders from the government, wealthy people, or other powerful groups. The basic idea is equality before law: a poor person, a minority, or another weaker section should have the same opportunity to complain, present evidence, and seek a remedy as a powerful person. Courts can examine whether an official action violates a law or a constitutional right and can provide appropriate relief. This does not mean that every case automatically goes in favour of the weaker person; it means that the case can be decided fairly and according to law. B is wrong because weaker sections remain subject to the same laws as everyone else. C is unrelated because governments are formed through constitutional and electoral processes, not by court protection. D is the opposite of the truth: access to courts is an important protection. Memory cue: independent court means “no powerful person is above the law.”
