Correct answer: (A) A, B, E, C, D — The correct order of these articles is A, B, E, C, D, which is option (1).
Explanation
★The correct order of these articles is A, B, E, C, D, which is option (1).
★The question asks for the items arranged by their article number in the Constitution.
★The abolition of untouchability comes first, since it is in Article 17.
★The prohibition of employment of children in factories comes next, since it is in Article 24.
★Equal justice and free legal aid comes third, since it is in Article 39A.
★The promotion of co operative societies comes fourth, since it is in Article 43B.
★The separation of the judiciary from the executive comes last, since it is in Article 50.
★So the ascending order of articles is 17, 24, 39A, 43B and 50.
★This gives the sequence A, then B, then E, then C, then D.
★Articles 17 and 24 are Fundamental Rights in Part III of the Constitution.
★Article 17 abolishes untouchability, and Article 24 bars child labour in factories and mines.
★Articles 39A, 43B and 50 are Directive Principles in Part IV of the Constitution.
★Article 39A on free legal aid and Article 43B on co operative societies were added by later amendments.
★Article 43B was inserted by the 97th Amendment of 2011 to promote co operative societies.
★So the question mixes Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles and tests the order of their articles.
★For NET, fix the article numbers: untouchability 17, child labour 24, free legal aid 39A, co operative societies 43B and separation of judiciary 50.
