    Solution

    The Directive Principles of State Policy, found in Part IV (Articles 36-51) of the Indian Constitution, are positive directions or guidelines for the government to follow when making laws and policies. Though non-justiciable, Article 37 states that these principles are fundamental in governance, and it is the duty of the State to apply them when creating laws.
