Which of the following committees recommended the inclusion of fundamental duties in the Constitution of India?
निम्नलिखित में से किस समिति ने भारतीय संविधान में मौलिक कर्तव्यों को शामिल करने की सिफारिश की थी?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Swaran Singh Committee/ स्वर्ण सिंह समिति
🟢 Explanation
The Swaran Singh Committee (1976) recommended the inclusion of Fundamental Duties in the Constitution of India.
It was set up by the government during the Emergency period
It suggested that citizens should also have duties along with fundamental rights
Based on its recommendations, Article 51A (Fundamental Duties) was added by the 42nd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1976
स्वर्ण सिंह समिति (1976) ने भारतीय संविधान में मौलिक कर्तव्यों (Fundamental Duties) को शामिल करने की सिफारिश की थी।
यह समिति आपातकाल (Emergency) के दौरान गठित की गई थी
इसका उद्देश्य नागरिकों को अधिकारों के साथ कर्तव्यों के प्रति भी जागरूक करना था
इसी सिफारिश के आधार पर 42वें संविधान संशोधन (1976) द्वारा अनुच्छेद 51A जोड़ा गया
⭐ Extra Facts / अतिरिक्त तथ्य
📜 English: Fundamental Duties are borrowed from the Soviet Constitution.
मौलिक कर्तव्यों को सोवियत संविधान से प्रेरित माना जाता है।
Initially, there were 10 Fundamental Duties, later increased to 11 (by 86th Amendment, 2002).
शुरुआत में 10 मौलिक कर्तव्य थे, बाद में 86वें संशोधन (2002) से इन्हें 11 कर दिया गया।
Fundamental Duties are non-justiciable (not enforceable by courts).
मौलिक कर्तव्य न्यायालय द्वारा लागू नहीं कराए जा सकते।
They aim to promote discipline, patriotism, and unity among citizens.
इनका उद्देश्य नागरिकों में अनुशासन, देशभक्ति और एकता को बढ़ावा देना है।
