In the Constitution of India, promotion of international peace and security is included in the

A
Preamble to the Constitution
B
Directive Principles of State Policy
Correct Answer
C
Fundamental Duties
D
Ninth Schedule

Explanation

The promotion of international peace and security is explicitly mandated by Article 51, which is a key component of the Directive Principles of State Policy (Part IV). While the Preamble outlines the broad philosophy of the Constitution, it does not contain specific operational clauses for international relations, which are instead categorized as obligations of the State. This question tests the core concept of the functional classification of constitutional provisions and the specific contents of the DPSP regarding foreign policy.
