A Directive Principle in Part IV states that the State shall endeavour to secure, by suitable legislation or economic organisation, a living wage and conditions ensuring a decent standard of life and full enjoyment of leisure to all workers. Which Article contains this principle?

Article 43 contains the Directive Principle on a living wage and a decent standard of life with leisure for workers. Article 42 covers just and humane work conditions and maternity relief, and Article 39(d) covers equal pay for equal work, so those are incorrect.

  1. AArticle 39(d)
  2. BArticle 41
  3. CArticle 42
  4. DArticle 43Correct

Explanation

Article 43 deals with a living wage and decent standard of life for workers. Article 39(d) is equal pay for equal work for men and women, Article 41 is the right to work, education and public assistance, and Article 42 is just and humane conditions of work and maternity relief. Confusing Article 42 with 43 is the common error.
