C Correct answer
Explanation

Fundamental Rights serve as a check on the 'tyranny of the majority' by protecting individual and minority rights against democratic excesses. They are not absolute (reasonable restrictions can be imposed) and their primary purpose is to safeguard individual liberty and dignity. Option C correctly captures their role as constraints on majority power.
