The idea of the Directive Principles of State Policy in the Indian Constitution has been borrowed from the Constitution of:
-
A.
USA
-
B.
UK
-
C.
Ireland
-
D.
Canada
Correct Answer:
C. Ireland
Explanation:
The Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP), found in Part IV (Articles 36-51) of the Indian Constitution, are fundamental guidelines for the country's governance but are non-justiciable, meaning they cannot be enforced by a court of law. This concept was inspired by the Irish Constitution, which had itself adapted it from the Spanish Constitution. While Fundamental Rights (Part III) establish political democracy and are legally enforceable, the DPSP aim to establish social and economic democracy to create a welfare state. Since the provided options list Ireland (Option C) as the source, it is the correct answer. Therefore, any right not included in the six protected categories of Part III—such as the Right to Property (removed by the 44th Amendment) or specific administrative directives from Part IV—is not considered a Fundamental Right.
