Fundamental rights are crucial for developing an individual's personality and dignity in society. The Indian Constitution grants six fundamental rights, including equality, freedom, and protection against exploitation. Despite certain limitations, these rights are essential for upholding individual liberties and can only be suspended in exceptional circumstances. The right to life under Article 21 is considered sacrosanct even during times of emergency. The evolution of fundamental rights in India reflects a balance between individual freedoms and societal interests.
