\nExplain briefly what you understand by the Right to Equality.
\nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>

\nWhat is the meaning of \u2018Right to Constitutional Remedies\u2019?
\nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe Right of Constitutional Remedies is a very special right. This gives every citizen a right to move the Supreme Court or High Court if his Fundamental rights are violated by the state, a person or a body of persons. Infact the Right to Constitutional Remedies is so important because it is the only right which guarantees the enforcement of Fundamental Rights. Without this right all other rights would have become meaningless.<\/p>\n
\n\u2018Rights imply Duties\u2019. Discuss.
\nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
\n\u2018Rights imply Duties\u2019 means that rights and duties go hand in hand. If one hopes to enjoy rights, then he must perform certain duties. Rights and Duties are two sides of the same coin. Every right carries with it a duty.
\nFor example, if a person has a right to follow any religion, it is his duty to allow others to follow their own religion.
\nFundamental duties have been laid down by our Constitution to make every citizen realize that if they are given Fundamental Rights, they must also perform certain duties. To promote harmony and to strengthen our nation it is necessary to realise the importance of these duties which are attached to every right which we enjoy.<\/p>\n\n

\nWrite a note on \u2018Right against Exploitation\u2019.

Bonded labour, buying and selling of human beings, flesh trade are all gross violations of this right. It also forbids children below the age of 14 years from being employed in dangerous jobs.
