The chapter says Fundamental Rights differ from ordinary legal rights because they:

AAre enforced by the police rather than the judiciary in any given case
BApply only to citizens by birth and never to those naturalised later
CCan be amended only by amending the Constitution, not by ordinary lawmaking
DCannot be subjected to any restriction whatsoever by the government in power
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Can be amended only by amending the Constitution, not by ordinary lawmaking
Page 3 of the chapter says ordinary rights are protected by ordinary law, but Fundamental Rights can be amended only by amending the Constitution itself, and no organ of government may violate them. They are NOT absolute, however, so D is wrong.
