The "Directive Principles of State Policy" are 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) are outlined in Part IV (Articles 36 to 51) of the Indian Constitution. These principles serve as constitutional guidelines and moral obligations for the State to consider while framing laws and policies, aiming to establish a social and economic democracy and a welfare state.
The concept of DPSP was borrowed from the Irish Constitution (specifically Article 45), which had itself adopted the idea from the Spanish Constitution. While these principles are fundamental to the governance of the country, they are non-justiciable, meaning they cannot be enforced by any court of law. In contrast, Fundamental Rights are justiciable and legally enforceable. Because the DPSP were inspired by the Irish model, the correct answer to the origin of these principles is Ireland.
