Q46 (UPPCS/2021) Polity & Governance › Constitutional Basics & Evolution

Which one of the following is NOT correctly matched ?
(Provisions) (Sources)

Result
Your answer: —  ·  Correct: C

Explanation

The Indian Constitution borrowed various features from other nations. The matches are as follows:

  • Fundamental Rights: Borrowed from the USA (Bill of Rights).
  • Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP): Borrowed from the Irish Constitution.
  • Residual Powers: The provision that residuary powers vest in the Centre was borrowed from the Canadian Constitution, not Australia. Australia contributed the Concurrent List, Joint Sitting of the two Houses, and Freedom of Trade and Commerce.
  • Emergency Powers: The suspension of Fundamental Rights during an Emergency is borrowed from the Weimar Constitution of Germany.

Therefore, option C is incorrectly matched because Residual Powers are associated with Canada.
