The Fundamental Rights are enshrined in Part III of the Constitution, and their implementation is guaranteed by the Supreme Court. In other words, Fundamental ' Rights are justiceable. Indeed, some of the Fundamental Rights, it might be noted, are applicable only to the citizens of the country and not to foreigners. Article 20, Article - 21 and Article 22 are, however, applicable to all. At the same time, it should also be ' borne in mind that what is applicable is the 'restriction' on the Right.
