Why is an independent judiciary considered essential for rights?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it can give impartial relief even against government
Correct answer: A. Rights need an institution that can examine their violation without simply obeying the government or another powerful person. An independent judiciary considers the law and evidence, hears the affected citizen, and may provide a remedy even when the alleged wrongdoer is a public authority. This makes rights practical rather than merely promises written on paper. B is wrong because a court that only follows government orders is not independent. C is wrong because courts can interpret and enforce legal protections through appropriate remedies. D is wrong because access to justice allows complaints to be heard. Independence does not mean judges ignore law; it means decisions are made according to law rather than improper pressure. Memory cue: independent courts make rights enforceable against power.
