Which of the following part of the Indian Constitution is related to the Directive Principles of State Policy?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Part IV in the Indian Constitution
The Directive Principles of State Policy are in Part IV of the Indian Constitution; Article 51, on the promotion of international peace and security, is one of them.
Note: None of the NCERT books – the pre-rationalised, 2023-24, 2025-26 or 2026-27 edition – names the Part of the Constitution that holds the Directive Principles of State Policy; they speak of the Directive Principles and of Article 51 only. The Directive Principles are in Part IV (Articles 36 to 51); Part III of the Constitution holds the Fundamental Rights, Part V deals with the Union and Part VI with the States.
