Which one of the following objectives is not embodied in the Preamble to the Constitution of India ?
A
Liberty of thought
B
Economic liberty
Correct Answer
C
Liberty of expression
D
Liberty of belief
Explanation
The Preamble specifically guarantees "Liberty of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship," but it does not mention "Economic liberty." While the term "Economic" does appear in the Preamble, it is strictly categorized under "Justice" (social, economic, and political), which is the most common point of confusion for aspirants. This question tests the precise textual classification of the four core objectives—Justice, Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity—as defined in the Constitution’s opening statement.
