Explanation

The Directive Principles of State Policy in the Indian Constitution were borrowed from Ireland's Constitution (Irish Constitution had similar socio-economic principles in Articles 45-55). Dr. Ambedkar and the framers found Ireland's approach to socio-economic justice particularly relevant for India's context. This is a standard fact in Indian Polity regarding constitutional borrowing.
