{'fundamental right': [9, 0, 2, 4], 'human right': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'constitution': [39, 3, 11, 39], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'education': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'information': [5, 0, 6, 20]}

The correct answer here is option 2: Right to education.

The right to education is considered both a Human Right and a Fundamental Right under the Constitution of India. As a Human Right, it is recognized by international organizations such as the United Nations, which have emphasized the importance of ensuring education for all individuals.

In India, the right to education is also protected as a Fundamental Right under Article 21A of the Indian Constitution. This article states that the State shall provide free and compulsory education to all children between the ages of 6 and 14 years. This provision was added through the 86th Amendment to the Constitution in 2002.

It is important to note that although the other options listed (right to information, right to work, and right to housing) may also be considered important rights, they are not specifically identified as Human Rights or Fundamental Rights under the Constitution of India.
