Answer: C
Notes:

Exp) Option c is the correct answer

Rights are what one wants others to do for him/her, whereas duties are those acts that one should perform for others. Thus, a right comes with an obligation to show respect for the rights of others. The obligations that accompany rights are in the form of duties. Every right implies a co-relative duty and vice-versa. The State protects and enforces rights and it is the duty of all citizens to be loyal to the state. Thus, the relationship between the rights is complementary.
