A and C

D.

B and D
 

Correct option is D

 The correct answer is (d) B and D.
Detail Solution:
B) They have moral and political sanctions. Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSPs) are guidelines to the central and state governments of India, meant to be kept in mind while framing laws and policies. Although they are not enforceable by any court, they have moral and political sanctions, encouraging governments to consider these principles in governance to ensure a just society.
D) They are positive in nature. DPSPs are generally positive in nature as they suggest that the State should aim to create conditions for improving the welfare of the people, through measures aimed at securing social and economic justice, adequate means of livelihood, and a high standard of living. These principles advocate for a proactive role of the state in creating a better society.
A) They are negative in nature. This statement is incorrect because DPSPs do not restrict rights or provide prohibitions; instead, they are aspirational goals for the state to achieve positive social and economic reforms.
C) They promote the welfare of the rich. This is also incorrect as the DPSPs are primarily designed to promote the welfare of all segments of society, particularly the weaker and underprivileged groups, not just the rich.
