In which case did the Supreme Court initially hold that the Preamble was not a part of the Constitution according to the source?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. Berubari Union Case, 1960A. बेरुबारी संघ मामला, 1960
Explanationव्याख्या
According to the source, in the Berubari Union Case of 1960 the Supreme Court initially took the view that the Preamble was not a part of the Constitution.
The source contrasts this position with the later Kesavananda Bharati v.
State of Kerala decision of 1973, in which the Preamble was accepted as a part of the Constitution.
This change in judicial understanding is one of the most important examination points concerning the legal status of the Preamble.
The source also records other cases in which courts discussed the importance and interpretation of the Preamble, including Golaknath and Sajjan Singh.
For quick revision, remember the contrast: Berubari, 1960—not treated as part; Kesavananda Bharati, 1973—accepted as part.
स्रोत के अनुसार 1960 के बेरुबारी संघ मामले में सर्वोच्च न्यायालय ने प्रारंभ में यह माना था कि प्रस्तावना संविधान का भाग नहीं है। स्रोत इस स्थिति की तुलना 1973 के केशवानंद भारती बनाम केरल राज्य मामले से करता है, जिसमें प्रस्तावना को संविधान का भाग स्वीकार किया गया। प्रस्तावना की विधिक स्थिति से संबंधित यह परिवर्तन परीक्षा की दृष्टि से अत्यंत महत्वपूर्ण है। स्रोत गोलकनाथ और सज्जन सिंह जैसे अन्य मामलों में भी प्रस्तावना पर न्यायिक विचारों का उल्लेख करता है। त्वरित सूत्र—बेरुबारी 1960: भाग नहीं; केशवानंद भारती 1973: संविधान का भाग।
