\nThe Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) in the Indian Constitution were not adopted from the British Constitution; they were largely inspired by the Constitution of Ireland (Article 45 of the Irish Constitution).
\n<\/section>\n
\n– First past the post system (winner takes all in constituencies) is a feature of the British electoral system adopted by India.
\n– The basic law-making procedure and the parliamentary form of government with a cabinet system collectively responsible to the legislature are also primarily derived from the British parliamentary system.
\n<\/section>\n
\nThe Indian Constitution draws provisions from various sources worldwide. Besides the Irish Constitution for DPSPs, it borrowed ideas like Fundamental Rights from the USA, emergency provisions from the German Weimar Constitution, federal system with a strong centre from Canada, etc.
