Question

Under which article does the Supreme Court protect the rights of Indian citizens?

• A. Article 19
• B. Article 21
• C. Article 32
• D. Article 38

Hint:

Ambedkar’s phrase: Article 32 is the ``heart and soul'' of the Constitution—nice sentence to quote in mains/essays.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Name the right. Article 32—Right to Constitutional Remedies—allows individuals to directly approach the Supreme Court for enforcement of Fundamental Rights via writs (habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto, certiorari).

Step 2: Separate substance from remedy. Arts. 19 and 21 contain substantive rights; Art. 38 is a DPSP. The {remedial jurisdiction} lies in Art. 32.

Step 3: Conclude. \[ \boxed{\text{Article 32 (Option C).}} \]
