SSC CGL - 17 July 2023 - Shift 3 • General Awareness • Q49

Fundamental duties were not placed in Part III of the Indian Constitution because Part III is ______________.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. justiciable.

Fundamental Duties were not placed in Part III of the Indian Constitution because Part III is justiciable. Part III deals with Fundamental Rights, which are enforceable by the courts. Fundamental Duties, on the other hand, are included in Part IVA (Article 51A) of the Constitution and are not justiciable, meaning they are moral obligations rather than legal rights that can be enforced by the judiciary. This distinction highlights the different nature and purpose of these constitutional provisions.
