Explanation
★Correct matching: Rudal Shah with the award of monetary compensation, ADM Jabalpur with the right to life, Naveen Jindal with the right to fly the tricolor, and the ADR case with the right to know.
★In Rudal Shah v. State of Bihar (1983), the Supreme Court ordered the release of a person unlawfully detained and awarded him monetary compensation.
★In ADM Jabalpur v. Shivkant Shukla (1976), the Habeas Corpus case, the Court controversially held that the right to life could be suspended during the Emergency.
★In Union of India v. Naveen Jindal (2004), the Court held that flying the National Flag is part of the freedom of expression under Article 19(1)(a).
★In Union of India v. Association for Democratic Reforms (2002), the Court held that voters have the right to know the antecedents of electoral candidates.
★These cases expanded the scope of fundamental rights through public interest litigation.
★For NET, link each case to the specific right it recognised.
