State of U.P. v. Dina Nath Shukla, AIR 1997 SC
The Preamble was authoritatively held to be a part of the basic structure of the Constitution in Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala (AIR 1973 SC 1461) and reiterated in later decisions. Among the options given in the question, State of U.P. v. Dina Nath Shukla was cited as endorsing this view. The Preamble encapsulates the ideals of sovereignty, socialism, secularism, democracy, justice, liberty, equality and fraternity, which are treated as basic features immune from destruction by constitutional amendment. Thus, the Preamble forms part of the basic structure and cannot be abrogated even by the Parliament in exercise of its power under Article 368.
