• B. Article 226
• C. Article 21

Hint:

Article 32 is known as the "heart and soul" of the Constitution as it ensures the protection of fundamental rights through the Supreme Court.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Article 32 of the Indian Constitution gives individuals the right to directly approach the Supreme Court for the enforcement of their fundamental rights. This is a key provision for protecting fundamental rights in India. Article 226 allows the High Courts to issue writs, but Article 32 specifically empowers citizens to go directly to the Supreme Court.
