The correct answer is D, as promoting village and cottage industries is not a fundamental duty.
Article 51A of the Constitution lists the Fundamental Duties. While respecting the National Flag (a), defending the country (d), and providing education to one’s child (k) are explicitly mentioned as fundamental duties, promoting village and cottage industries is listed as a Directive Principle of State Policy under Article 43.
