The Indian Constitution ensures to all citizens of India equality of status and opportunity as Fundamental Rights which are can be enforced in a court of law.

The central social welfare Board was established in 1953 for promoting voluntarism and general welfare of family, women, and children. State Social Welfare Boards were established to establish various schemes for welfare and development of women and children. These are important organizations in the socio-economic development of India working both at center and state level.

The environmental knowledge acquired by many women is both useful and detailed. Close daily contact makes women, more than men, familiar with properties and uses of the natural environment, for example, disease and drought-resistant crops and tree varieties, efficient fuelwood, and medicinal plants. A survey in Sierra Leone revealed that women could identify 31 different forest products while men were able to identify only 8 of them. Women are often very aware of the ecological relationships that affect their daily life. 

Indira Mahila Yojana aims at organizing at the grass-root level to facilitate the participation of the women in the decision-making process. The main objective of this plan is to create awareness among the women and to provide the income resources to them. This plan will establish coordination among the various plans related to women so that the available funds can be properly used for the welfare of women. Under the ‘Indira Mahila Yojana’, women groups are formed in the villages and urban slums that work with the support of the Indira Mahila Kendras established at the ‘Anganwadi’ level. Road construction, rural electrification, increasing the non-traditional energy sources, social forestry, education, and health programs have also been included in the scheme. Setting up schools at the village level for women was not the objective of this scheme.

Option A is the correct answer. The word 'socialist secular' and 'unity and integrity of the Nation' were added to our Constitution by 42nd Amendment of the Constitution. The 42nd amendment to Constitution of India, officially known as The Constitution (Forty-second amendment) Act, 1976, was enacted during the Emergency (25 June 1975 – 21 March 1977) by the Indian National Congress government headed by Indira Gandhi.

India is a secular country. The term 'Secular' was added by the 42nd Constitutional Amendment Act of 1976. In India, people of different religions have the freedom to practice, profess and propagate their religion with any discrimination.

Conflicts occur when people of different cultures, religions, regions or economic backgrounds do not get along with each other or when some among them feel they are discriminated.
