Fundamental Duties

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.

A legislative process has been provided to enforce these duties. They are correlative to legal duties. Select the correct answer using the code given below:

B.2 only
C.Both 1 and 2
A.1 only
D.Neither 1 nor 2

Correct Answer: Option D

Fundamental Duties in the Indian Constitution are non-justiciable, meaning they cannot be directly enforced through the courts.

No specific legislative process exists to enforce these duties directly. While some duties might be linked to existing laws, there isn't a dedicated legal framework for their enforcement.

Fundamental Duties are not directly correlative to legal duties. Legal duties are enforceable by law, while fundamental duties are moral obligations.

Statement 1 is incorrect. Statement 2 is incorrect. Hence, neither 1 nor 2 is correct.
