Question

Tick mark (✓) the correct statement or (X) if it is wrong.

That the state shall protect ancient monuments is one of the Directive Principles pertaining to Social Equality and Educational Uplift.

Answer 1

This statement is wrong.

Explanation:

Because the protection of ancient monuments is categorized under Directive Principles pertaining to Heritage and Culture, not Social Equality. According to Article 49, the state is duty-bound to protect monuments of national importance to preserve the country’s history. In contrast, principles for Social Equality and Educational Uplift focus on sectors like early childhood education and the economic interests of marginalized communities. Thus, the classification of the principle in the statement is incorrect.
