Which one of the following is a human right as well as a fundamental right under the Constitution of India?

BPSC treated this question as having no correct option (cancelled).

Explanation

According to Article 19(1)(a) of the Indian Constitution, all citizens have the right to freedom of speech and expression. The Right to Information is inherent in the freedom of expression; hence, it is a Fundamental Right. Along with this, the Right to Information is also a Human Right. The Right to Education is also a Fundamental Right, provided by the 86th Constitutional Amendment Act, 2002. The Right to Education is also a Human Right. The Right to Information is also a part of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. According to Supreme Court judgments, the Right to Information is inherent in the freedom of speech and expression mentioned in Article 19(1)(a), although it is not expressly written in the Constitution. Thus, both options (a) and (c) are correct.
