With reference to Fundamental Rights, answer the following:(a) What are the components of the Right to Education?(b) How is the Right to Information an implied Fundamental Right ? |
|
Answer» (a) This right has been granted by the Constitution (Eighty-six Amendment) Act, 2002. By this Act, a new article 21A has been inserted in the Constitution, which states, “The State shall provide free and compulsory education to all children of the age of 6 to 14 years in such manner as the state may, by law, determine”. The Act also enjoins on the State to endeavor to provide early childhood care and education to all children until they complete six years of age. (b) An implied Fundamental Right is the one which is a part of a named Fundamental Right or partakes of the same basic nature and character as that Fundamental Right. Since RTI is implicit in the Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression (Act. 19), it is an implied Fundamental Right because if one does not know the facts one cannot speak freely. The Right to Information Act came into force on Oct. 12, 2005. |
