1)Article 37 states that though DPSPs are non justiciable, they are fundamental in the governance of the country and it is the duty of the states to apply principles while formulating policies.
2)DPSPs serve as guiding principles through which a welfare state can be established.
3) DPSPs serve as a test for the performance of the government.
4) DPSPs bring stability and continuity in policies and serve as a common political manifesto.
5) DPSPs lay down foundation for realization of economic and social democracy.
DPSPs are complementary to fundamental rights and fill the vacuum for providing social and economic rights.

Dr. BR Ambedkar, chairman of the Drafting Committee of the Constituent Assembly, had stated that, “The Directive Principles are specially designed to establish social and economic democracy.”
