To promote the educational and economic interests of the weaker sections of the people, especially the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes 4. To protect all monuments of historic interest and national importance Select the correct answer using the code given below.

The Fundamental Duties, listed under Article 51A of the Constitution, include cherishing the noble ideals of the national struggle for freedom [1] and valuing the rich heritage of our composite culture. Statement 1 and Statement 2 are explicitly mentioned as Fundamental Duties (ii) and (f) respectively [1]. However, Statement 3, which concerns promoting the educational and economic interests of weaker sections like Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, is a Directive Principle of State Policy under Article 46 [2]. Similarly, Statement 4, regarding the protection of monuments of national importance, is a Directive Principle under Article 49, whereas the corresponding Fundamental Duty (Article 51A(g)) focuses on protecting the natural environment and (Article 51A(i)) on safeguarding public property. Therefore, statements 3 and 4 are not Fundamental Duties.
