Discussion
Which part of the Indian constitution declares India to be welfare state?
I) Part III
II) Part IV
III) Part IX
IV) Part VI
Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Answer: B
The answer is Part IV only.
Part IV of the Constitution, the Directive Principles of State Policy, sets out the goal of a welfare state. Article 38 directs the State to promote the welfare of the people by securing a social order in which social, economic and political justice informs all institutions, and the following articles deal with livelihood, equal pay, public assistance, education and health.
Part III contains the Fundamental Rights, Part IX the Panchayats, and Part VI the States, so none of them is the part that declares the welfare-state goal.
