The Fundamental Rights are defined as the basic human rights of all citizens. These rights, defined in Part III of the Constitution, apply irrespective of race, place of birth, religion, caste, creed or sex.

Fundamental Rights may well be called the soul of our Constitution. These are the very basic rights that are universally recognized as fundamental to human existence and indispensable for human development. It guarantees civil liberties such that all Indians can lead their lives in peace and harmony as citizens of India. They include individual rights common to most liberal democracies, such as equality before the law, freedom of speech and expression, freedom of association and peaceful assembly, freedom of religion, and the right to constitutional remedies for the protection of civil right.

The Constitution guarantees six fundamental rights to Indian citizens as follows:

1. Right to Equality (Articles 14 - 18):

Equality implies provision for equal opportunities persons for their self-development without any distinction of religion, caste, sex, wealth or status. The Right to Equality has been guaranteed by the Indian Constitution in Articles 14-18.

Article 14 - Art. 14 of the Indian Constitution say, “The State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or equal protection of the laws within the territory of India”. All are equal before the law. That means, no one can claim any special privilege. Nobody is above the law of the land.
Article 15 - Prohibition of discrimination on grounds only of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth.
Article 16 - Article 16 of Indian Constitution ensures equality of opportunity for all citizens in public employment. It is further provided that in case of public employment the State cannot make any discrimination on grounds only of religion, race, sex, descent, place of birth or residence
Article 17-
