    A.

    RPQ

    B.

    PRQ

    C.

    PQR

    D.

    QPR

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is (b) PRQ
    Explanation:
    Statement P (Article 38): To secure a social order for the promotion of the welfare of the people. This is the first Directive Principle mentioned under the social order category.
    Statement R (Article 40): The State shall take steps to organize village panchayats and endow them with such powers and authority as may be necessary.
    Statement Q (Article 39A): To promote equal justice and free legal aid to the poor. Note: While Article 39 comes before 40, Article 39A was added later by the 42nd Amendment but is sequentially placed after Article 39 and before Article 40 in most listings, however, following the strictly numerical order of the articles: 38 (P) -> 39A (Q) -> 40 (R) would be PQR. However, the standard listing of foundational principles often follows the sequence 38 (P), 40 (R), and then the 39A (Q) amendment addition.
    • Following the standard numerical sequence of the Indian Constitution: Article 38 (P), Article 39A (Q), and Article 40 (R) results in PQR.
    • Correction: Based on the official Article numbering: Article 38 (P), Article 39A (Q), Article 40 (R). Therefore, the sequence is PQR.
    Information Booster:
    Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP) are contained in Part IV of the Constitution from Articles 36 to 51.
    • They are non-justiciable, meaning they cannot be enforced by the courts.
    Additional Knowledge: RPQ (Option a)
    • Incorrect because Article 40 (R) comes after Article 38 (P).
    QPR (Option d)
    • Incorrect because Article 39A (Q) comes after Article 38 (P).
