Which option is a wrong example of expansion of rights?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Taking rights away from people
The governing concept is the expansion of rights: as democratic understanding develops, existing rights may be interpreted more broadly or new protections may be recognised. Recognising education as a right, connecting a clean environment with the right to life, and treating dignity as part of life are examples of such widening interpretations. Taking rights away does the opposite; it reduces protection and therefore cannot be called expansion. Thus option A is correct. Options B, C and D describe ways in which the meaning or reach of rights can become wider. The question asks for the wrong example, so the answer is not the option that extends protection but the one that removes it.
