Part VI
Correct Answer:
A. Part III
Explanation:
The Indian Constitution addresses Fundamental Rights in Part III, spanning Articles 12 to 35. These rights are considered the cornerstone of the Constitution as they guarantee essential civil liberties and protect citizens from arbitrary state actions. Originally, the Constitution recognized seven fundamental rights, but the Right to Property was removed by the 44th Amendment Act in 1978 and reclassified as a legal right under Article 300A. Currently, there are six categories of Fundamental Rights: the Right to Equality, Right to Freedom, Right against Exploitation, Right to Freedom of Religion, Cultural and Educational Rights, and the Right to Constitutional Remedies. These rights are justiciable, meaning individuals can approach the Supreme Court or High Courts for their enforcement if they are violated.
