Why do Fundamental Rights make citizens claim-holders and not merely beneficiaries?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They give citizens a basis to demand legal protection from the government

Correct answer: A. A beneficiary receives something as a favour or welfare benefit, while a claim-holder possesses a right that can be demanded and defended. Fundamental Rights are guaranteed by the Constitution, so citizens can question government action when it violates equality, liberty or another protected right. They do not have to wait for the government to be generous. If necessary, they may seek legal protection through the courts, including constitutional remedies. B is wrong because rights empower citizens rather than keep them away. C is wrong because the government is bound by the Constitution, not simply giving favours. D is wrong because Fundamental Rights are not prizes. Memory cue: a benefit may be a favour; a fundamental right is an enforceable claim.
