Question

Choose the most appropriate option:

Which among the following was described by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar as the "heart and soul of the Constitution of India"?

विकल्प

• Freedom of Religion

• Right to Constitutional Remedies

• Right to equality

• Right to move throughout the territory of India

Answer 1

Right to Constitutional Remedies

Explanation:

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar called Article 32 of the Indian  Constitution i.e. Right to Constitutional remedies as  'the heart and soul of the Constitution'.  
It was made so because the mere declaration of the fundamental right without effective machinery for enforcement of the fundamental rights would have been meaningless. Also, a right that does not have a remedy is a worthless declaration. Thus, the framers of our constitution adopted the special provisions in article 32 which provided remedies to the violated fundamental rights of a citizen.
