B. 2 only

D. Neither 1 nor 2
Answer

D

Explanation

There is no legislative process provided to enforce the Fundamental Duties and they are not correlative to legal duties. Like the Directive Principles, the Fundamental Duties are also non-justiciable. The Constitution does not provide for their direct enforcement by the courts. Moreover, there is no legal sanction against their violation.
