Correct:
A
Explanation
Fundamental Duties are enshrined in Part IV-A of the Indian Constitution under Article 51A. They were incorporated by the 42nd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1976, following the recommendations of the Swaran Singh Committee. Currently, there are eleven Fundamental Duties.
- Option A: Voting in elections is a legal/statutory right (and a constitutional right under Article 326) but is not listed as a Fundamental Duty. The Swaran Singh Committee had suggested making the duty to pay taxes a fundamental duty, but it was not accepted; voting was also not included.
- Option B: Covered under Article 51A(h).
- Option C: Covered under Article 51A(i).
- Option D: Covered under Article 51A(a), which mandates citizens to abide by the Constitution and respect its ideals and institutions.
