Which of the following statements is/are true of the Fundamental Duties of an Indian citizen?

1. A legislative process has been provided to enforce these duties.

2. They are correlative to legal duties.

Select the correct answer using the code given below:

The correct answer is option 4 i.e Neither1 and 2.

• Fundamental Duties:
  • The fundamental duties were incorporated in Part IV-A of our constitution through the 42nd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1976.
  • At present, there are eleven fundamental duties under article 51 A of the constitution.
  • The idea of Fundamental Duties has been borrowed from the erstwhile USSR.
  • Originally the duties were ten in number, later on through 86th Amendment Act, 2002, the eleventh Fundamental duty was added.
  • Swaran Singh Committee recommended the inclusion of Fundamental Duties in the Indian Constitution.
  • Fundamental duties are non-enforceable in nature.
  • There is no legislative process to enforce citizens to do their duties. Hence statement 1 is not true.
  • The legal duty is one that is required to be carried out according to the law. So, there is no correlation between legal and fundamental duties. Hence statement 2 is wrong.
