Question



‘Abolition of titles’ is a part of which Fundamental Right?

A.

Right of Equality

B.

Right to Freedom

C.

Right Against Exploitation

D.

Cultural and Educational Rights

Correct option is A


Article 18 of the Indian Constitution pertains to the abolition of titles and is a part of the Right to Equality. The Right to Equality (Articles 14–18) ensures equal treatment of all individuals before the law, prohibits discrimination on various grounds, ensures equality in public employment, and abolishes untouchability and titles.
Article 18 specifically bans hereditary titles such as Maharaja, Raj Bahadur, Rai Bahadur, Rai Saheb, and Dewan Bahadur, which were commonly conferred by colonial states. These titles are prohibited as they contradict the principle of equality and undermine the idea of equal status for all citizens.
Additional Information:
Cultural and Educational Rights:
· Protected under Articles 29 and 30, these rights uphold an individual’s ability to preserve their distinct language, script, and culture.
· They prevent discrimination by the state based on religion, race, caste, or language, ensuring cultural autonomy and inclusivity.
Right to Constitutional Remedies:
· Known as the most critical fundamental right, it provides citizens the ability to approach the court if their fundamental rights are violated.
· Article 32 empowers the Supreme Court, while Article 226 grants similar powers to the High Courts to issue writs and ensure the protection of fundamental rights.
Right Against Exploitation:
· Enshrined in Articles 23 and 24, this right prohibits forced labor, child labor, and trafficking.
· It safeguards both citizens and non-citizens from any form of exploitation, ensuring dignity and justice for all individuals.
