Which of the following Articles of the Indian Constitution enforces that it is the duty of the State to apply directive principles in making laws?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Article 37.
Article 37 of the Indian Constitution enforces that it is the duty of the State to apply the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) while making laws. Although these principles are not enforceable by any court, they are fundamental in the governance of the country. Article 37 states that the Directive Principles are not justiciable but are essential for governance, and it is the duty of the State to apply them in law-making. These principles, enshrined in Part IV (Articles 36 to 51), aim to establish social and economic democracy and promote the welfare of the people.
