Correct Answer :

Option B

The Directive Principles of State Policy

Solution :

The correct answer is The Directive Principles of State Policy.


Under the Constitution of India, the concentration of wealth is prevented through the principles laid down in Part IV, which covers the Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP).


Specifically, Article 39(c) directs the State to ensure that the operation of the economic system does not result in the concentration of wealth and means of production to the common detriment.


Furthermore, Article 39(b) directs that the ownership and control of the material resources of the community are distributed best to subserve the common good. Therefore, preventing the concentration of wealth is a fundamental goal under the Directive Principles aimed at establishing a welfare state.
