2.  Right to Freedom (Articles 19-22)

                 This gives citizens basic freedom with respect to speech and expression, forming

                 associations, freedom of personal liberty, and freedom to live a life of dignity. They
                 are allowed to organise themselves however they choose and carry out their daily
                 lives in any way they seem fit, but of course, within limits. In short, people are able to

                 exist without fear of a higher force such as the government.
            3.  Right Against Exploitation (Articles 23-24)


                 One should always remember that to be exploited is to be misused. We often see
                 that kids and poor people are especially vulnerable to being exploited. This is one
                 of  the most important fundamental  rights that  ensures  things  like education  for
                 children and equal pay for equal work.

            4.  Right to Freedom of Religion (Articles 25-28)

                 In  our  country,  each  and  every  citizen  can  practice  the  religion  of  their  choice.
                 Everyone is free to do whatever his/her religion tells them to do.


            5.  Cultural and Educational Rights (Articles 29-30)
                 The main aim of this right is to protect minorities. We have multiple  groups  of

                 people who are very less in number. They mostly live in remote areas or have been
                 downtrodden by the old-fashioned society. This way we can include certain castes
                 and tribes who live in jungles, away from developed big cities and towns. All these

                 people have a fundamental right to enjoy all the benefits that the majority of citizens
                 enjoy.

            6.  Right to Constitutional Remedies (Article 32)

                 This right is very important for the legal development of the citizens and the country.
                 All citizens have an equal right to appeal to the court of law for justice if they feel
                 they have a threat to life or property. They may also join the government in order to

                 effect this change.

          Conclusion


          Fundamental rights play a very significant role in the life of any citizen. These rights can
          defend us during times of complexity and difficulty and help us grow into good human

          beings. In this universe every human being has some liberty which cannot be restrained
          by anyone. This is why fundamental rights have been written and given to the people of

          a country. If these had not been framed then no one could have lived freely in a country.
          Thus, it has always been necessary to frame these fundamental rights for a human being
          to live a dignified life.
