CBSE Class 9 Answered
Rights are reasonable claims of persons recognised by society and sanctioned by law! Why should these claims be reasonable? Explain.
Thus, these claims need to be reasonable as they affect a variety of people all across the nation. Also, since rights play a very special role in a democracy it needs to ensure that majority does not suppress the minority and it should also protect the minorities against any oppression. Moreover, rights are inculcated in the Constitution because they act guarantees, which can used when things go wrong. Therefore it can said that claims need to be reasonable because only if they are recognised by society as rightful they form the basis of rights.
