Question
Answer the following questions briefly:
Explain the significance and scope of the right to Constitutional Remedies.
Solution
Fundamental Rights are meaningless unless they are enforced and protected by a court of law. Hence, our Constitution provides the right to move the court to safeguard our Fundamental Rights. If the government, a group or an individual violates one or more of the Fundamental Rights, any citizen can file a case against the offender in the state High Court or in the Supreme Court.
Scope of the Fundamental Rights:
- The Fundamental Rights are universal, e., they are guaranteed to every citizen of India, irrespective of caste, colour, religion, gender, or social status.
- The Fundamental Rights cannot be easily altered or removed from the Constitution.
- Fundamental Rights are not absolute. They have certain restrictions imposed on them in the larger interests of society.
- Some of the Fundamental Rights can be suspended during an emergency, such as a war or an economic or political crisis.
