Consider the following pairs:
Provision in the Constitution of India : Stated under
I. Separation of Judiciary from the Executive in the public services of the State : The Directive Principles of the State Policy
II. Valuing and preserving of the rich heritage of our composite culture : The Fundamental Duties
III. Prohibition of employment of children below the age of 14 years in factories : The Fundamental Rights
How many of the above pairs are correctly matched?
- A.Only one
- B.Only two
- C.All the three
- D.None
▶ Answer & Explanation
Correct answer: C. All the three
Article 50 of the Directive Principles of State Policy mandates the separation of the judiciary from the executive. The Fundamental Duties, enshrined in Article 51A, include the duty to value and preserve the rich heritage of the country's composite culture. While the employment of children below 14 years is prohibited in hazardous occupations under Fundamental Rights (Article 24), the specific mention of factories without qualification aligns with this right.
