Consider the following statements regarding the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP): 1. In the Champakam Dorairajan case (1951), the Supreme Court ruled that in case of any conflict between Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles, the Directive Principles would prevail. 2. There are certain constitutional directives addressed to the State outside of Part IV of the Indian Constitution. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Explanation

Statement 1 is incorrect because in the Champakam Dorairajan case (1951), the Supreme Court ruled that in case of any conflict between Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles, the Fundamental Rights would prevail, and the Directive Principles have to run as subsidiary to the Fundamental Rights. Statement 2 is correct because apart from Part IV, there are other directives in the Constitution, such as Article 335 (Claims of SCs/STs to services), Article 350A (Instruction in mother-tongue at primary stage), and Article 351 (Development of the Hindi language).
