Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
Part IVA of the Constitution lists the Fundamental Duties in Article 51A. Each duty is a constitutional civic obligation, distinct from Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles.
For a combined-choice item, assess every substantive statement independently and then evaluate the combined claims from that count.
Application
Article 51A(c) requires every citizen to uphold and protect the sovereignty, unity and integrity of India.
Article 51A(g) requires every citizen to protect and improve the natural environment and to have compassion for living creatures.
Article 51A(k) requires a parent or guardian to provide educational opportunities to a child or ward between six and fourteen years of age.
Cross-check
Check | Finding |
|---|---|
Number of qualifying substantive statements | Three—clauses 51A(c), 51A(g), and 51A(k). |
Claim that no listed statement qualifies | Excluded because the count is three, not zero. |
Result
The combined statement asserting that more than one listed duty qualifies is the answer.
