The document summarizes the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSPs) in the Indian Constitution. Some key points: - DPSPs resemble the 'Instrument of Instructions' in the 1935 Government of India Act and aim to ensure 'social and economic democracy' and establish a 'welfare state'. - DPSPs are non-justiciable but courts can use them to examine the validity of laws. They guide the government in framing policies and laws. - DPSPs incorporate socialist principles like adequate livelihood, equal pay, health protections; Gandhian principles like village panchayats and cottage industries; and liberal principles like uniform civil code and environment protection. -
