Question

Match List-I with List-II and select the correct answer by using the codes given below the lists:

List 1 : List 2
(A) Right to Equality (i) Article 19-22 
(B) Right to Freedom (ii) Article 32 
(C) Cultural and Educational Rights (iii) Article 14-18 
(D) Right to Constitutional Remedies (iv) Article 29-30 Codes:

Accepted Answer

The correct option is 1:
The Fundamental Rights, enshrined in Part III of the Indian Constitution (Articles 12 to 35), are crucial for the development of every citizen. Matching the categories of these rights with their specific article ranges is essential knowledge.
(A) Right to Equality is covered under Articles 14 to 18 (iii). This right ensures that all citizens are equal before the law and prohibits discrimination on various grounds.
(B) Right to Freedom is covered under Articles 19 to 22 (i). This includes crucial liberties such as freedom of speech and expression, protection in respect of conviction for offences, and protection of life and personal liberty.
(C) Cultural and Educational Rights are covered under Articles 29 to 30 (iv). These articles protect the rights of distinct sections of citizens to conserve their language, script, and culture, and the right of minorities to establish and administer educational institutions.
(D) Right to Constitutional Remedies is covered by Article 32 (ii). Dr. B. R. Ambedkar referred to Article 32 as the "heart and soul" of the Constitution, as it grants citizens the right to move the Supreme Court for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights. Therefore, the correct match is (A)-(iii), (B)-(i), (C)-(iv), (D)-(ii).

The incorrect option is 2:
Option 2 incorrectly matches (A) Right to Equality with (i) Article 19-22. As discussed, Articles 19-22 pertain to the Right to Freedom, not the Right to Equality. Furthermore, Option 2 incorrectly links (B) Right to Freedom with (iii) Article 14-18. Articles 14-18 specifically deal with the principle of equality before the law and equal protection of the laws, which is the Right to Equality. Although it correctly matches (C) and (D), the primary errors in matching (A) and (B) make this entire code incorrect, demonstrating a misunderstanding of where these primary rights are located in the Constitution's structure.

The incorrect option is 3:
Option 3 incorrectly matches (A) Right to Equality with (iv) Article 29-30. Articles 29 and 30 exclusively deal with the Cultural and Educational Rights of minorities and other sections. It also incorrectly matches (C) Cultural and Educational Rights with (ii) Article 32. Article 32 is exclusively designated for the Right to Constitutional Remedies, which empowers the Supreme Court to issue writs. Finally, it incorrectly matches (D) Right to Constitutional Remedies with (i) Article 19-22, which is the scope of the Right to Freedom.

The incorrect option is 4:
Option 4 incorrectly matches (A) Right to Equality with (ii) Article 32. Article 32 is the remedy right, which gives citizens the power to approach the Supreme Court. It also incorrectly matches (B) Right to Freedom with (iv) Article 29-30. Articles 29 and 30 address Cultural and Educational Rights related to language, script, culture, and minority institutions. Additionally, this option incorrectly associates (C) Cultural and Educational Rights with (iii) Article 14-18, which is the range for the Right to Equality. This option completely misaligns all the rights categories with their corresponding article ranges.
