Which of the following is true about Fundamental Rights and DPSPs?
Fundamental Rights are justiciable, but DPSPs are not
Under the Indian Constitution:
• Fundamental Rights (Part III, Articles 12–35) are justiciable — citizens can directly approach the Supreme Court (Article 32) or High Courts (Article 226) to enforce them.
• Directive Principles of State Policy (Part IV, Articles 36–51), by virtue of Article 37, are explicitly not enforceable by any court, even though they are fundamental in the governance of the country and the State has a duty to apply them in lawmaking.
So FRs are justiciable while DPSPs are non-justiciable. Options A, B, and D contradict this.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
