Correct Answer:
A. 42nd Amendment
Explanation:
The Fundamental Duties were incorporated into the Indian Constitution through the 42nd Amendment Act of 1976. This change followed the suggestions of the Swaran Singh Committee, which recommended the inclusion of a set of duties for citizens. These duties are listed under Article 51A in Part IV-A of the Constitution. Initially, ten duties were introduced, while an eleventh duty concerning education was added later by the 86th Amendment Act in 2002.
