Article 32: Right to Constitutional Remedies, Part III of the Constitution of India.
Article 32 empowers the Supreme Court to issue writs such as Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Prohibition, Quo-Warranto, and Certiorari.
The Parliament can empower any other court to exercise these powers within its local limits under Article 32(3).
Fundamental Rights can be suspended only during a National Emergency as per Article 359, excluding Articles 20 and 21.
High Courts have similar writ jurisdiction under Article 226, which is wider than the Supreme Court's because it covers legal rights in addition to fundamental rights.
Article 28 relates to freedom as to attendance at religious instruction or religious worship in certain educational institutions.
Article 29 protects the interests of minorities, specifically their right to conserve their distinct language, script, or culture.
Article 30 grants minorities the right to establish and administer educational institutions.
D is correct тАФ Article 32 provides the judicial machinery for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights.
Always contrast Article 32 with Article 226; while Article 32 is a fundamental right itself, the writ jurisdiction of High Courts under Article 226 is a constitutional right but not a fundamental right.
