Assertion (A) : Though the people of this country differed in a number of ways, they all were proud to regard themselves as participants in a common heritage and composite culture.
Reason (R) : The foundation of composite culture of India is the Sanskrit language and culture which is the great biding force in India.

Select the correct answer code.

  • A.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
  • B.(A) is true but (R) is false
  • C.(A) is false but (R) is true
  • D.None of the above

Answer: B

The Assertion is true but the Reason is false, so the answer is (A) is true but (R) is false.

The Assertion is true: despite differences of language, religion and region, Indians share a common heritage and a composite culture. Article 51A(f) makes valuing and preserving that rich heritage a fundamental duty.

The Reason is false: India's composite culture is composite precisely because it is not founded on any single language or tradition. It draws on Sanskritic, Dravidian, Persian, Islamic, tribal and many other streams, so calling Sanskrit its sole foundation is wrong.
