Constitutional right is "granted" by Constitution. They are not prexisting. Example: Right to Vote. You cannot approach courts for their violation under Article 32 or 226 (These empower the supreme court and high court respectively to issue writs against any authority of the State inorder to enforce the Fundamental rights)
Fundamental Rights are not "granted" by any Constitution or government document. They are prexisting. Without Fundamental Rights, the life of people becomes miserable. Because Fundamental Rights are so fundamental for peace, happiness and security of people, these are the rights that are most likely to violated by State to cause hardships to citizens. Hence these rights are merely "guaranteed" by Constitution from being violated by State.

Every citizen who is 18 years old on the qualifying date (January 1 of the year in case) unless disqualified, is eligible to be enrolled.
