Ans. (b)
Explanation – The Indian Constitution is the longest written Constitution of the World. It has 395 Articles, 12 Schedules, and 22 Parts.
The chapter on Fundamental Rights has been borrowed from the Constitution of U.S.A., but this is not the only reason responsible for lengthy Constitution.
Thus Assertion (A) and Reason (R) both are correct but (R) does not explain (A) correctly.
