What is Article 13?

Article 13 is like a guardian of your Fundamental Rights. It says that no law—past, present, or future—can violate the rights given to you by the Constitution.

✅ In Simple Words:
If any law goes against your Fundamental Rights, that law becomes invalid.

🔍 What Article 13 Does:

Kills old laws that hurt your rights
➤ Any law made before 1950 (before the Constitution came into force) that violates your fundamental rights is automatically void.

Blocks new harmful laws
➤ If the Parliament or State Legislature tries to make a new law that takes away your fundamental rights—that law will not stand.

Gives power to courts
➤ High Courts and the Supreme Court can strike down any law that violates your fundamental rights.

⚖️ Why It’s So Important:
It makes Fundamental Rights powerful.

It limits the power of government.

It ensures no law is above the Constitution.

Real-Life Example:
Let’s say a state makes a law that says:

"Only men can apply for a government scholarship."

⚠️ That goes against your Right to Equality (Article 14).

➡️ Because of Article 13, that law can be challenged and removed by the court.

💡 So, What Can You Do?
If you feel a law or policy violates your rights, you can go to court.

Use Article 32 (Right to Constitutional Remedies) to file a petition in the Supreme Court.

Learn your rights — because you have the power to question and stop unfair laws.

Article 13 is your Constitutional Alarm System.

It alerts the courts if a law attacks your rights — and throws that law out. - can you create a image prompt for above
