Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Concept
The Directive Principles of State Policy guide the State in social and economic governance. In matching questions, each provision must be linked to the Article that expressly states it.
Articles 42, 43, 44 and 49 respectively deal with humane work conditions, a living wage, a uniform civil code, and protection of monuments or objects of national importance.
Application
Article 42 directs the State to secure just and humane conditions of work and maternity relief; therefore a maps to 2.
Article 43 directs the State to secure a living wage and a decent standard of life for workers; therefore b maps to 1.
Article 44 directs the State to endeavour to secure a uniform civil code for citizens; therefore c maps to 4.
Article 49 obliges the State to protect monuments, places and objects of national importance; therefore d maps to 3.
Provision | Article |
|---|---|
a — Just and humane conditions of work | Article 42 (code 2) |
b — Living wage for workers | Article 43 (code 1) |
c — Uniform Civil Code | Article 44 (code 4) |
d — Protection of places and objects of national importance | Article 49 (code 3) |
Cross-check and contrast
The code a–2, b–1, c–4, d–3 reproduces all four constitutional links.
The code a–3, b–2, c–4, d–1 misassigns a, b and d.
The code a–1, b–3, c–2, d–4 misassigns all four provisions.
Because exactly one listed code row reproduces all four links, neither the multiple-row claim nor the no-row claim applies.
Therefore, the required code is a–2, b–1, c–4, d–3.
