  • Separation of the judiciary from the executive in the public services of the StateArticle 50
  • Protection of life and personal liberty except according to procedure established by lawArticle 21
  • Duty of the State to raise the level of nutrition and standard of living and to improve public healthArticle 47

Answer

The correct matching aligns the Duty to abide by the Constitution with Article 51A(a), Separation of judiciary from executive with Article 50, Protection of life and personal liberty with Article 21, and Duty to raise nutrition and public health with Article 47.
Respecting the National Flag and National Anthem is explicitly listed under Article 51A(a) as a Fundamental Duty. Separation of the judiciary from the executive is provided under Article 50 as a Directive Principle. Protection of life and personal liberty is guaranteed under Article 21 as a Fundamental Right. Raising the level of nutrition and public health is specified under Article 47 as a Directive Principle.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Categorize each item in List-I into its constitutional category (Fundamental Right, DPSP, or Fundamental Duty).
The duty to abide by the Constitution is a Fundamental Duty (Part IV-A). Separation of judiciary from executive and improving public health are Directive Principles (Part IV). Protection of life and personal liberty is a Fundamental Right (Part III).
Distinguishing between Parts III, IV, and IV-A narrows down the specific article ranges.
2
Map each provision directly to its corresponding Article in List-II.
Item 1 maps to Article 51A(a), Item 2 maps to Article 50, Item 3 maps to Article 21, and Item 4 maps to Article 47.
Article numbers specifically correspond to provisions: 21 (FR), 47 and 50 (DPSPs), and 51A(a) (Fundamental Duty).
