Question
Which of the following was considered as 'heart and soul of the constitution' by Dr.
B. R. Ambedkar?Â
Solution
Dr. Ambedkar considered the right to constitutional remedies (Article 32) as ‘heart and soul of the constitution’. It is so because this right gives a citizen the right to approach a High Court or the Supreme Court to get any of the fundamental rights restored in case of their violation. The Supreme Court (under Article 32) and the High Courts (under Article 226) can issue orders and give directives to the government for the enforcement of rights.Â
