Question
Rights and duties are two aspects of the same thing. In this context, explain the importance of Fundamental Duties and their relationship with Rights.
Solution
Rights and duties are indeed two aspects of the same thing. It is the duty of others if it is the right for the one and vice versa. If a person does something constructive taking it for his duty, the other person has no right to tamper with his efforts with the intention to demoralise him.
It would rather be an offense on his part if he does so. If one has the right to a “nationality”, he is under an obligation to defend the country and render “national service” when called upon to do. We also have an obligation to safeguard public property and to abjure violence.
