Vision of the Constitution

On 13 December 1946, Jawaharlal Nehru introduced the "Objectives Resolution" in the Constituent Assembly. It was a momentous resolution that outlined the defining ideals of the Constitution of Independent India, and provided the framework within which the work of constitution-making was to proceed. It proclaimed India to be an "Independent Sovereign Republic", guaranteed its citizens justice, equality and freedom. In the winter of 1946-47, as the Assembly deliberated, the British were still in India. An interim administration headed by Jawaharlal Nehru was in place, but it could only operate under the directions of the Viceroy and the British Government in London. Lahiri exhorted his colleagues to realise that the Constituent Assembly was British-made and was "working the British plans as the British should like it to be worked out". The Constituent Assembly was expected to express the aspirations of those who had participated in the movement for independence. On 27 August 1947, B. Pocker Bahadur from Madras made a powerful plea for continuing separate electorates. Minorities exist in all lands, argued Bahadur; they could not be wished away, they could not be "erased out of existence". Most nationalists saw separate electorates as a measure deliberately introduced by the British to divide the people. "The English played their game under the cover of safeguards," R.V. Dhulekar told Bahadur, "With the help of it they allured you (the minorities) to a long lull. Give it up now". ...The Draft Constitution provided for three lists of subjects: Union, State, and Concurrent. The subjects in the first list were to be the preserve of the Central Government, while those in the second list were vested with the states. As for the third list, here Centre and state shared responsibility. In one of the earliest sessions of the Constituent Assembly, R. V. Dhulekar, a Congressman from the United Provinces, made an aggressive plea that Hindi be used as the language of constitution-making.

Which of the following term did not exist in the Objectives Resolution introduced in the Constituent Assembly on 13 December 1946?

Socialist

The correct answer is Option (4) → Socialist

he passage notes that the Objectives Resolution of 13 December 1946 proclaimed India to be an “Independent Sovereign Republic” and guaranteed justice, equality, and freedom.

However, the word “Socialist” was not included in the Objectives Resolution. It was added much later in the Preamble by the 42nd Amendment (1976).
