The document discusses the Directive Principles of State Policy in the Indian Constitution. It defines the Directive Principles as instructions to the legislature and executive to establish a just social order. Some key differences between Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles are that Fundamental Rights can be appealed to the supreme court if violated, while Directive Principles are not justiciable. Fundamental Rights have a negative aspect of restricting state power, while Directive Principles have a positive aspect of instructing the state. Legislation is necessary to implement Directive Principles but not for Fundamental Rights.
