Social Security is one of the most important aspects of a welfare state, which is aimed at providing a safety net for the citizens of the country. In India, the Constitution provides for social security measures under Article 41, which states that the state shall within the limits of its economic capacity and development, make effective provisions for securing the right to work, education and public assistance in cases of unemployment, old age, sickness and disablement, and other cases of undeserved want.
