Question

​Who can give the order and directives to the government for the enforcement of fundamental rights?​

A.

​Prime Minister of India​

B.

​President of India ​

C.

​Governor​

D.

​Supreme Court and High Court​

Correct option is D

The correct answer is (A) Supreme Court and High Court.

Both the Supreme Court and High Courts in India can issue orders and directives to enforce fundamental rights: 

Supreme Court:

  • Article 32 of the Constitution of India gives the Supreme Court the power to issue orders, directions, or writs to enforce fundamental rights. Writs are special orders that can include habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto, and certiorari. 

High Courts:

  • Article 226 of the Constitution of India gives High Courts the power to issue writs to enforce fundamental rights. The term "authority" in Article 226 is given a liberal meaning, and can cover any person or body performing a public duty. 
  • The right to move the Supreme Court for the enforcement of fundamental rights is guaranteed by Article 32. However, the President can suspend this right during a National Emergency.
