(iv) The Preamble to the Constitutions of the United States and India do not invoke God. Both the Preamble suggests that citizens have complete freedom to follow any religion. There is no official religion.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are both similarities and differences between the preamble to the constitution of USA, India and South Africa

Explanation:

Similarities:

• We, the people, is the first words in each of the three preambles, indicating that the people of each country are in charge of the respective governments.
• A democratic type of government in which the people's representatives are elected.
• The principles of justice, equality, and human rights are embodied in every preamble.

Differences:

• Unlike the constitutions of South Africa and India, which do not address the formation of a union, the Preamble to the United States Constitution does.
• The brutal apartheid government is mentioned in the Preamble of the South African Constitution.
• The Preambles of the Indian and American Constitutions do not mention God and do not, therefore, support any particular national religion.

Therefore, there are both similarities and differences between the preambles of different countries.
