Explanation
Option (a) is correct
- Rights and duties are interdependent. For every right guaranteed to citizens, there is a corresponding duty. For example, the right to freedom of speech comes with the duty to not misuse this freedom to harm others or disrupt public order. This relationship ensures responsible citizenship and societal balance, as duties help protect and realize the rights of individuals while promoting the common good.
