Directive Principles (DPSP): What is the key pre-requisite for effectively enforcing the Directive Principles of State Policy? Consider what the State needs in order to implement socio-economic directives. Choose the correct condition.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Adequate resources

Explanation:

Given data

  • DPSP are non-justiciable guiding principles for governance (Part IV).


Concept/Approach
Many Directive Principles (e.g., public health, education, welfare) require substantial financial and administrative resources. While good governance matters, the essential pre-requisite for enforcement is adequate resources.


Step-by-step reasoning
DPSP → socio-economic programs → budgetary outlays/infrastructure → need adequate resources.


Common pitfalls
Equating political form (socialist government) or party dynamics (opposition) with the constitutional requirement; DPSP implementation fundamentally hinges on capacity and resources.


Final Answer
Adequate resources
