Constitutional Law
Fundamental Rights
The basic rights guaranteed to every citizen by the Constitution, enforceable directly through the courts, including equality, freedom, and protection of life and liberty.
Fundamental Rights protect individuals against arbitrary state action, covering areas like equality before law, freedom of speech, protection against exploitation, and the right to constitutional remedies if any of these rights are violated.
Unlike ordinary legal rights, Fundamental Rights can be directly enforced by approaching the High Court or Supreme Court through writ petitions, reflecting their special constitutional status.
