Correct Answer:
B. Ireland
Explanation:
The concept of Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) in the Indian Constitution, specifically outlined in Articles 36 to 51 of Part IV, was inspired by the Irish Constitution of 1937. These principles serve as fundamental guidelines for the government to establish a just society by promoting social and economic welfare. While they are non-justiciable—meaning they cannot be enforced by a court of law—they are considered essential in the governance of the country and act as a moral compass for the State when formulating laws and policies. Historically, the inclusion of these principles was also influenced by the Indian independence movement and the 1931 Karachi Resolution, reflecting a commitment to social justice and the creation of a welfare state.
