The Article 40 which requires the state to organize village panchayats and authority to enable them to function as units of self government is part of A. Directive Principles of States Policy B. Right to Constitutional Remedies C. Right to Freedom of Conscience D. None of these

Directive Principles of States Policy
Right to Constitutional Remedies
Right to Freedom of Conscience
None of these

The correct answer is: A. Directive Principles of States Policy

Directive Principles of State Policy are a set of principles that are fundamental to the governance of India. They are not enforceable by courts, but the state is expected to follow them in making laws and policies. Article 40 of the Indian Constitution is one of the Directive Principles of State Policy. It states that the state shall take steps to organize village panchayats and endow them with such powers and authority as may be necessary to enable them to function as units of self-government.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option B, Right to Constitutional Remedies, is a part of the Fundamental Rights of the Indian Constitution.
  • Option C, Right to Freedom of Conscience, is also a part of the Fundamental Rights of the Indian Constitution.
  • Option D, None of these, is incorrect because Article 40 is a part of the Directive Principles of State Policy.
