The correct answer is option 4: I, II and III.

Explanation:

I. The Fundamental Rights under the Indian Constitution are protected and enforced by the Constitution. This means that these rights are guaranteed to every citizen and are legally enforceable.

II. The Fundamental Rights can be suspended only in the manner prescribed by the Constitution. This means that there are specific procedures and conditions that need to be followed in order to suspend these rights, ensuring that they are not arbitrarily taken away.

III. The Fundamental Rights are enforceable against the State. This means that an individual can approach the judiciary to seek protection and enforcement of their Fundamental Rights against any violation or infringement by the State or its agencies.

Option IV is incorrect because it states that the Fundamental Rights cannot be amended. In reality, the Indian Constitution allows for the amendment of Fundamental Rights through a special procedure. Therefore, option IV is not correct.

In summary, options I, II, and III are correct statements that explain why the Fundamental Rights under the Indian Constitution are considered fundamental.
