Problem 5 - Entrance Test

Which right is considered the 'heart and soul' of the Indian Constitution, as it allows citizens to move court to enforce other fundamental rights?

Correct: C

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar famously called the Right to Constitutional Remedies (Article 32) the 'heart and soul' of the Constitution. This right empowers citizens to approach the Supreme Court or High Courts to enforce their fundamental rights. The courts can issue various writs (Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Prohibition, Certiorari, and Quo-Warranto) to protect these rights.
