Question

    The Fundamental Right to Constitutional Remedies under

    Article 32 can be exercised to:
    A Enforce Fundamental Rights only Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Enforce any right recognized by the Constitution Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Challenge any law Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Seek damages from private parties Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Override Supreme Court decisions Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Article 32 allows persons to move the Supreme Court directly for enforcement of Fundamental Rights. It cannot be used to enforce non-fundamental rights or purely statutory rights, though Articles 226 (High Court) and 227 (High Court) may provide remedies for broader violations. Article 32 is the cornerstone of Fundamental Rights and its violation or suspension can be questioned even during emergency (Article 359).
