Key Points:
• Article 47 & Public Health Mandate:
• Article 47 of the Indian Constitution directs: *"The State shall regard the raising of the level of nutrition and the standard of living of its people and the improvement of public health as among its primary duties, and, in particular, the State shall endeavour to bring about prohibition of the consumption except for medicinal purposes of intoxicating drinks and of drugs which are injurious to health."*
• It is under this constitutional authority that the Union and State governments enact laws to ban or regulate intoxicating liquors and dangerous/narcotic drugs (e.g., NDPS Act, 1985).
• *Other Articles for reference: *
• Article 45: Provision for early childhood care and education to children below six years.
• Article 46: Promotion of educational and economic interests of SCs, STs, and other weaker sections.
• Article 48: Organisation of agriculture and animal husbandry, prohibiting the slaughter of cows and calves.
• Therefore, 'Only c' (Option 4) is the correct answer.
• Key Takeaway: Article 47 empowers the State to prohibit intoxicating drinks and injurious drugs to improve public health and nutrition.
