guidelines in Part IV. These provisions are known as the Directive
Principle of State Policy. In this lesson we will study about Directive
Principles in detail. It is a well-established saying that rights have
significance only when enjoyed in consonance with the duties. Therefore,
the Fundamental Duties were inserted in Article 51A of our Constitution in
1976 by 42nd Amendment Act. In the original Constitution in 1950, there

their duties willingly. We will also learn about these duties in this lesson.
