  • Essay / Fundamental Rights and Fundamental Rights - 1987

    Art 25-28 Freedom of ReligionUnlike many countries around the world, we are free to practice, profess and propagate any religion under Art. 25. Art. 26 allows us to establish and maintain institutions for religious and charitable purposes. It also gives the right to manage our own religious affairs. Art. Article 27 provides tax benefits for the promotion of religion and art. 28 prohibits religious education in public and government-subsidized schools. 5. Art 29-30 Cultural and educational rightsArt. 29 allows any section of citizens living anywhere in India and having a distinct language, script or culture to preserve it. Art. Article 30 allows minorities to establish and maintain educational institutions. However, to prevent discrimination, Article 29(2) prohibits them from discrimination in admission only on the grounds of religion, race, caste, language or any of them.6. Art 32 Right to constitutional remediesDr. Ambedkar, the chief architect of our constitution, said that Article 32 is the soul of our constitution. All the talk about rights is useless if there is no recourse against their transgression. Under this article, a citizen is free to approach the Supreme Court for violation of his rights.
