Question

With reference to the Right to Constitutional Remedies, answer the following question:

Why is this right important?

Short Answer

Solution

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar referred to the Right to Constitutional Remedies as the "heart and soul of the Constitution" because it allows citizens to apply to courts for the enforcement of their Fundamental Rights. This right assures that if any of the Fundamental Rights are violated, persons can directly approach the High Court or the Supreme Court for justice. It is critical to maintaining the rule of law, order, peace, and justice in society because it provides a method for correcting governmental or institutional excess.
