Directive Principles of State Policy in India have been taken from the Constitution of which country?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Ireland

The Directive Principles of State Policy in India have been influenced by the Irish Constitution. When drafting the Indian Constitution, the framers drew on various sources, and the Directive Principles were inspired by the Irish experience of embedding social and economic goals within a constitutional framework. These principles guide the government in formulating policies aimed at achieving social and economic justice, although they are not justiciable like Fundamental Rights but serve as a directive for governance.
