Answer:

Fundamental Duties in Indian Constitution (Article 51A}

INTRODUCTION

Fundamental duties is a section of the Constitution of India that prescribes the fundamental, moral, and obligatory duties of the citizens to the nation. This is considered as one of the vital sections of the constitution, which was developed between 1947-1949 by the Constituent Assembly of India.

Fundamental duties are intended to serve as a constant reminder to every citizen that while the constitution specifically conferred on them certain Fundamental Rights, it also requires citizens to observe certain basic norms of democratic conduct and democratic behaviour because rights and duties are co-relative.

The Fundamental duties are set out in Part IV-A of the constitution and cannot be forced on the citizens until made as a parliamentary law. They were added to the constitution by the 42nd Amendment in 1976 by the recommendation of the Swaran Singh Committee.  

Originally, there were only 10 fundamental duties, the 11th was added by the 86th Amendment in 2002, which states that every parent or guardian to ensure that their child or ward was provided opportunities for education between the ages of six and fourteen years.
