Indian Constitution : 6 Fundamental Rights : List, Trick and Activity
Indian Constitution : 6 Fundamental Rights
In the Third Part of the Constitution, Articles from 12 to 35 grant important fundamental rights to Indian citizens. These rights are fundamental because firstly, they are essential for citizens to live democratically and are guaranteed by the constitution. Secondly, effective procedure for the enforcement is laid down in the constitution, and in case a citizen is devoid of any rights, he can approach a court of law for their protection. Thirdly, ordinary rights of citizens can be amended through ordinary process of law but not the fundamental rights because they have a constitutional guarantee.
📌 KEY NOTE : The fundamental rights were borrowed from the constitution of USA.
🎯 The constitution provides six fundamental rights to our citizens:
1. Right to Equality : Article 14 to 18
2. Right to Freedom : Article 19 to 22
3. Right against Exploitation : Article 23 & 24
4. Right to Freedom of Religion : Article 25 to 28
5. Cultural and Educational Right : Article 29 to 30
6. Right to Constitutional Remedies : Article 32 to 35
Earlier Right to Property (Article 31) was also mentioned in the Fundamental Rights. It was removed by the 44th constitutional amendment, 1978. Now it is a legal right under Article 300A.
📍📌📍 Key Note: Article 21(A) was inserted in the Indian Constitution after 86th amendment in 2002. It deals with the free and compulsory education for all the children in the age group of 6 to 14 years.
These Fundamental Rights are applied without any discrimination of gender, religion, race, caste and creed. They are justiciable. A person can knock at the door of the Supreme Court in case of a violation.
However, Fundamental Rights of Indian citizens can be suspended in case of an emergency.
