The debate between Fundamental rights and duties go hand in hand. But all the champions of Human rights forget that the two aren’t conflicting with each other rather are complementary. By performing one’s duty a person can ensure the rights of other persons. However, it seems that in the mad race of virtual signalling, politics wrongfully cemented the notion that Fundamental Rights are some sort of tangible thing which can be guaranteed without citizenry upholding their fundamental duties.
Namazis obstruct movement in train
A video is going viral in which several passengers can be seen offering Namaz while causing a blockade in the walking passage of the train. It is claimed that the video was recorded on 20th of October when the train halted at the Kushinagar Railway Station. As per reports, the entire incident happened in the Sleeper Coach of Satyagrah Express.

In the video, a passenger can be heard and seen prohibiting other passengers from entering or exiting the train or from going to their respective seats. Apparently, this blockade by the Namazis hindered the passenger movement and reportedly several passengers were not allowed to de board the train even when their destinations had arrived.

It is to be noted that religion is a private affair and the constitution guarantees everyone to profess their religion as and how they wish. But the key issue is that the Fundamental Rights of certain individuals to offer Namaz at such a public place hinders the fundamental right of movement of passers-by.
It is high time that citizens realise that Fundamental Rights should have certain restrictions, boundaries and laws which they need to abide by so that their experience of Fundamental Rights doesn’t hinder anyone else’s rights.
