With reference to Directive Principles of State Policy consider the following statements :
1. The Directive Principles of State Policy of Indian Constitution have been clearly divided into three parts i.e. Socialist, Gandhian and Liberal.
2. Directive principles of State Policy related to co-operative society (under Article 43) of Indian Constitution is taken from Nehru's objective resolution of 1946.
Which of the statements given above is/are incorrect?
This solution analyzes two statements concerning the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) in the Indian Constitution to determine which are incorrect.
Statement 1 claims that the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) are clearly divided into three parts: Socialist, Gandhian, and Liberal. While political scientists and legal experts often categorize DPSPs into these groups for better understanding and analysis, the Constitution itself does not explicitly demarcate them into these three distinct 'parts'. This categorization is an academic framework rather than a formal constitutional division. Therefore, the assertion of a 'clear division' into these parts as formal constitutional sections is inaccurate.
Statement 2 relates the Directive Principle concerning co-operative societies (mentioned under Article 43 context) to Nehru's Objective Resolution of 1946. Article 43 of the Constitution aims to secure a living wage, decent standard of life, and social/cultural opportunities for workers, and promotes cottage industries. The promotion of co-operative societies specifically was emphasized later, with Article 43B being added via the 97th Amendment in 2011. Nehru's Objective Resolution of 1946 laid down the broad aspirations for the Indian Republic, focusing on sovereignty, justice, liberty, and equality. It did not specifically mandate the inclusion of provisions for co-operative societies in the form found in Article 43 or its subsequent amendments. Thus, this statement is incorrect as the specific principle is not directly derived from the 1946 Objective Resolution.
Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 present inaccurate claims regarding the Directive Principles of State Policy.
