Q50 (CISF/2018) Polity & Governance › Fundamental Rights, DPSP & Fundamental Duties

Which one of the following statements about the Directive Principles of State Policy is not correct ?

Explanation

Statement C is incorrect because the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) are non-justiciable. According to Article 37 of the Constitution, these principles are not enforceable by any court. The sanction behind them is political (public opinion and responsibility to the electorate) rather than legal.

  • Statements A and D: These are correct as the primary objective of DPSPs is to establish a 'Welfare State' and ensure socio-economic justice.
  • Statement B: This is correct because there are directives located outside Part IV, such as Article 335 (Claims of SCs/STs to services in Part XVI), Article 350A (Instruction in mother tongue in Part XVII), and Article 351 (Development of the Hindi language in Part XVII).
