Abstract

The citizens of India have various "FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS" guaranteed by the Indian Constitution. These rights can be enforced in the courts. However, the government has found these rights to be "obstacles" to its policies on various occasions, particularly those concerning state security and social welfare legislation. As a result, the Parliament has altered these rights from time to time. The Fundamental Rights portion of Part three of the Constitution is one of the most often changed parts of the document. Fundamental Rights are those that are necessary for any human being's development. In their absence, no one can achieve the perfection of his life as a human being. As a result, these rights have a long and arduous history, and India is no different. Human history shows that in order to obtain these rights, humans must engage an endless and long war against existing authorities all across the world. The meaning, nature, types, extent, and implications of Fundamental Right under Indian democracy are the subject of this study.
