Which Article states that Directive Principles are non-justiciable?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Article 37.

Article 37 of the Indian Constitution explicitly states that the Directive Principles of State Policy are non-justiciable, meaning they cannot be enforced by any court. However, it emphasizes that these principles are fundamental in the governance of the country, and it is the duty of the state to apply them in making laws. While they are not legally enforceable, they guide the state in creating policies aimed at securing social, economic, and political justice for all citizens.
