Why is it important that rights are constitutional in a democracy?

Correct answer: Because they cannot be easily removed by ordinary political will

Correct answer: B. When rights are written and protected in the Constitution, they receive a higher and more stable legal status than an ordinary policy or temporary political promise. A government or majority cannot simply remove them whenever it wishes; any restriction must follow constitutional rules and lawful procedures. Courts can examine whether government action respects constitutional guarantees, and citizens can seek remedies when protected rights are violated. A is wrong because constitutional protection strengthens rights. C is wrong because constitutional rights protect citizens, not only rulers. D is wrong because the Constitution gives courts an important role in protecting rights rather than stopping them. The protection is not unlimited permission: rights may operate with lawful, reasonable limits designed to protect public order and the rights of others. Memory cue: constitutional rights act as a shield against ordinary political misuse of power.
