The Preamble of the Indian Constitution declares India to be a Sovereign, Socialist, Secular, Democratic ______.
- Monarchy
- Republic
- Federation
- Confederation
Answer: Republic
The Preamble declares India to be a 'Sovereign Socialist Secular Democratic Republic'. The term 'Republic' signifies that the head of State (President) is elected, not hereditary, and that political sovereignty rests with the people, not a monarch. This distinguishes India from constitutional monarchies like the UK.
