Consider the following pairs : Provision in the Constitution of India : Stated under 1. Separation of Judiciary from the Executive in the public services of the State : The Directive Principles of the State Policy 2. Valuing and preserving of the rich heritage of our composite culture : The Fundamental Duties 3. Prohibition of employment of children below the age of 14 years in factories : The Fundamental Rights How many of the above pairs are correctly matched?
A
Only one
B
Only two
C
All the three
Correct Answer
D
None
Explanation
All three pairs are correctly matched as Article 50 (DPSP) mandates the separation of the judiciary, Article 51A(f) (Fundamental Duties) requires preserving composite culture, and Article 24 (Fundamental Rights) prohibits child labor under 14. Option (b) is the most tempting wrong choice because candidates often confuse the specific wording of Fundamental Duties with similar-sounding Directive Principles, such as Article 49 which protects monuments and places of national importance. The core concept tested is the precise categorization of provisions within Parts III, IV, and IV-A of the Indian Constitution.
