Answer & Solution

Answer: (Detailed Solution Below)

Option B: Fundamental Rights

Detailed Solution:

The correct answer is “Fundamental Rights”.
Article 32 of the Indian Constitution only enforces fundamental rights, which are guaranteed in Part III of the Constitution. This includes rights like equality, life, and freedom from discrimination.

Article 32 gives individuals the right to directly approach the Supreme Court to enforce their fundamental rights if they believe they have been violated. This can be done by filing a writ petition under Article 32.

Writs are public law remedies, and some types of writs include habeas corpus, certiorari, prohibition, mandamus, and quo warranto.
