\nThe correct answer is B) Article 39(d).
\n<\/section>\n
\nThe concept of “Equal pay for equal work for both men and women” is explicitly enshrined as a Directive Principle of State Policy under Article 39(d) in Part IV of the Constitution of India.
\n<\/section>\n
\n– Article 14 guarantees equality before the law and equal protection of the laws, a fundamental right under Part III, which provides a general framework for equality but does not specifically mandate “equal pay for equal work”.
\n– Article 19 guarantees fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech and expression, assembly, association, movement, residence, and profession.
\n– Article 21(a) guarantees the right to elementary education.
\n– While “equal pay for equal work” is a DPSP, the Supreme Court has held that it is a constitutional goal and can be enforced through Articles 14 and 16 (equality of opportunity in public employment).
