    B.

    (A), (D) Only

    C.

    (A), (B), (C) and (D)

    D.

    (A), (B), (D) Only

    Correct option is B

    The correct  answer is: (b) (A), (D) Only

    Explanation

    • (A) Fundamental rights are expressly provided in the US Constitution:
      This is true. The US Constitution explicitly guarantees fundamental rights primarily through its Bill of Rights (the first ten Amendments) and subsequent amendments such as the 14th Amendment.

    • (B) Restrictions on fundamental rights are expressly provided in the US Constitution:
      This is false. Unlike the Indian Constitution, which explicitly lists reasonable restrictions on fundamental rights (e.g., Articles 19(2) to 19(6)), the US Constitution does not explicitly enumerate detailed restrictions. Instead, limits on rights are determined through judicial interpretation and doctrines established by the US Supreme Court.

    • (C) Fundamental rights and Human Rights are the same in India:
      This is false. Fundamental rights in India are legal rights granted by the Constitution specifically to its citizens and are enforceable in courts. Human rights are broader, universal rights inherent to all humans and recognized under international law.

    • (D) Directive principles in Indian Constitution are not enforceable by courts:
      This is true. Directive Principles of State Policy (Part IV of the Indian Constitution) guide governance but are non-justiciable, meaning courts do not enforce them as legal rights.
