    Question

    Who among the following has the power to enforce the Fundamental Rights under Article 32?

    A.

    President

    B.

    State Governments

    C.

    Parliament

    D.

    Supreme Court

    Correct option is D

    The correct option is (D) Supreme Court.

    Explanation:
    Article 32 of the Indian Constitution provides the Supreme Court with the power to enforce Fundamental Rights. It allows individuals to directly approach the Supreme Court for the protection of their rights, and the court can issue writs for this purpose.

    Information Booster:

    • Article 32 is known as the "Heart and Soul of the Constitution", as described by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar.

    • The Supreme Court can issue writs such as Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Prohibition, Certiorari, and Quo Warranto.

    • Right to Constitutional Remedies is itself a Fundamental Right under Article 32.

    • The power under Article 32 is available only for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights.

    Additional Knowledge:

    President: Exercises executive powers and upholds the Constitution but does not directly enforce Fundamental Rights.

    State Governments: Responsible for law and order and welfare, but enforcement of Fundamental Rights through writs is not their function.

    Parliament: Makes laws and can amend the Constitution but does not have the power to enforce rights under Article 32.
