Which one of the following is not a part of Article 51 of the Constitution of India?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

Article 51 of the Constitution of India, located within the Directive Principles of State Policy (Part IV), outlines the state's objectives regarding international relations. It specifically mandates that the State shall endeavour to: (a) promote international peace and security; (b) maintain just and honourable relations between nations; (c) foster respect for international law and treaty obligations; and (d) encourage settlement of international disputes by arbitration [1]. While India actively participates in the United Nations and its peacekeeping missions, the specific use of 'UN peacekeeping forces' is not explicitly mentioned in the text of Article 51 [3]. The article focuses on the broad principles of peace, justice, and arbitration rather than specific mechanisms like UN peacekeeping forces for dispute resolution. Therefore, option 3 is not a part of Article 51.
