Which of the following statements best describes the relationship between the Preamble and the other provisions of the Indian Constitution regarding their legal enforceability?

Fundamental Rights — question ID 141

Options

A.
B.

Explanation

In the Kesavananda Bharati case (1973), the Supreme Court held that the Preamble is a part of the Constitution. While it is non-justiciable (cannot be directly enforced in a court of law on its own), it serves as a key to open the minds of the makers and can be used to resolve ambiguities in other constitutional provisions.
