Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

The provision "to cherish and follow the noble ideals which inspired our national struggle for freedom" is explicitly listed as a Fundamental Duty under Article 51A(b) of the Constitution of India [5]. Fundamental Duties were incorporated into the Constitution via the 42nd Amendment Act in 1976, following the recommendations of the Swaran Singh Committee. These duties serve as moral and civic obligations for citizens to promote patriotism and national unity [1]. While the Preamble reflects the noble vision and aspirations of the founding fathers, the specific clause regarding the national struggle for freedom is codified within the list of eleven Fundamental Duties in Part IVA [4]. These duties are considered moral precepts that encourage citizens to remember and imbibe the values of social and economic emancipation that pervaded India's unique struggle for independence [1].
