it is not necessary that it should be expressly stated as one in Part III of the
Constitution: “the provisions of Part III and Part IV are supplementary and
complementary to each other”. The Court rejected that the rights reflected
in the provisions of Part III are superior to the moral claims and aspirations
reflected in the provisions of Part IV.
