Which one of the following objectives is not embodied in the Preamble to the Constitution of India?

1. A

   Liberty of thought

   (a) Liberty of thought. The Preamble expressly lists liberty of thought. This is embodied, so it is not the ‘not embodied’ answer.

2. B

   Economic liberty

   (b) Economic liberty. The Preamble names liberty of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship — not ‘economic liberty’ as a phrase. That absence is the official key.

3. C

   Liberty of expression

   (c) Liberty of expression. Expression is in the Preamble’s liberty clause. Not the key.

4. D

   Liberty of belief

   (d) Liberty of belief. Belief is in the Preamble. Not the key.

Summary. Official key is (b) economic liberty. The Preamble’s liberty cluster is thought, expression, belief, faith and worship. Justice is social, economic and political, and equality includes opportunity, but the word-pair ‘economic liberty’ is not used. Options (a), (c) and (d) quote the Preamble’s own liberty list. Article 19 freedoms are the neighbouring statutory-constitutional story, not this wording question.
