Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe Correct answer is Option 3.
Key Points
- Article 37 declares that Directive Principles are “fundamental in the governance of the country” and it is the duty of the State to apply them when making laws—but they are non-justiciable, not enforceable by any court.
- They serve as guidelines or instructions to the legislature and executive for framing policies and laws (making Option 4 correct).
- Being non-enforceable, DPSPs do not impose any legal obligation on the State in a court of law (making Option 3 incorrect).
- DPSPs cover areas like social justice, economic welfare, and environmental protection, reflecting the goals of governance rather than rights enforceable against the State. Hence correct answer is Option 3.
