Hint: The right to form an organisation requires the right to form businesses, associations, alliances, political parties and trade unions.
The assured right is not only the right to join an association, but also the right to proceed with the association as such.
The freedom to form an organisation often means the right to form or not to form an association or union, to join or not to join.

Complete answer:
Right to freedom gives us freedom to form associations and unions.

In Part III (Articles 12 to 35) of the Constitution of India, the Charter of Rights safeguards the human rights, fundamental freedoms and civil liberties of the people of India. The provisions of the right to liberty are set out in Articles 19, 20, 21A and 22. Article 19(1)(b) states that all people are entitled to gather together peacefully and without arms. Although the freedom to join associations or unions or cooperative societies is given to all citizens under Article 19(1)(c).

Lets see options :

Right to freedom : Right to freedom gives us freedom to form associations and unions according to articles 12 to 35 thus this option is correct.
Right to equality : Right to equality gives us equality before the law,society but it doesn't enrich association freedom thus this option is wrong.
Cultural and educational rights : This protects the right to preserve their culture by every section of people thus this option is wrong too.
Right to constitutional remedies : This gives us the right to move to court thus this option is wrong too.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A)

Note: The right to join an association inevitably means that the individual forming the association also has the right to continue to be affiliated only with those admitted to the association on a voluntary basis.
Any legislation under which members are added into the voluntary association without any possibility of being given to the members to keep them out, or any law that excludes the membership of those who have voluntarily entered it, would be a law infringing the right to create an association
