Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (D)

FRs promote individual welfare while DPSPs promote public welfare.

FRs are the essential or basic rights granted to all the citizens of the country. DPSPs on the other hand are the guidelines that are considered while formulating policies and laws.

FRs are legally enforceable, negative in nature, impart political democracy, and promote individual welfare. On the other hand, DPSPs are not legally enforceable, positive in nature, impart social and economic democracy, and promote public welfare.
