    Policy is INCORRECT?
    A They promote welfare of individuals. Hence, they are personal and individualistic. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    D They are positive, as they require the State to do certain things. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP), found in Part IV of the Indian Constitution (Articles 36-51), focus on collective welfare rather than being personal or individualistic. While they aim to ensure social and economic justice and establish a welfare state, they promote the welfare of society as a whole rather than focusing on individual interests. DPSPs guide government policy-making toward economic equality, social justice, and political fairness, particularly for disadvantaged communities.
