Q.20. In each of the following questions, a statement is given along with two assumptions. An
Statement: Consider these developments in the State. On April 4, over a month-and-a-half after
the Pulwama attack (in February), an announcement was made that the National Highway
between Baramulla and Udhampur would be closed to civilian traffic for two days a week to
facilitate convoy movements. It did not get the attention it deserved in the national media, but
many security planners were aghast.The highway is a lifeline for the local population, with many
lateral roads and passes through more than two-and-a-half districts. The armed forces are so
heavily deployed and the necessity for supplies and replenishments so constant that they use
the roads more than two days in a week. If the ban now stands lifted, it was because it is
untenable.
Assumptions:
(I) 75% of the polling took place and there was not a single incident of violence in Jammu and
Kashmir.
(II)The ban on movement over the highway terrified the security planners who used to
constantly deploy armed forces.
Statement: This examination system is something that reminds us of the beginnings of the
modern education system in India. The school-leaving examination was designed in the latter
half of the 19th century as a way to determine who can be selected for further education, which
was very scarce at that time, and also for lower-level jobs in offices. It was basically a means of
elimination. And it has remained that way up to now. The Grade 10 exam, for instance, fails a
large number of children and stops them from going any further. This is a kind of structural
arrangement in a system in which secondary education is not very widespread and higher
secondary education is even less so. Opportunities for further education at the undergraduate
level or various kinds of technical education are also relatively scarce.
Assumptions:
(I) Bagging a rank among lakhs of students is accepted widely as a mark of excellence.
(II) It is in the exam that all children no matter what their background is, or whether they study
in a posh school or a poor school face the same test of three hours.
Statement: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, President Xi Jinping on Thursday agreed to expedite
the dialogue on the India-China boundary issue for securing a “fair” solution. “President Xi
Jinping very warmly confirmed his readiness to visit India this year. He said that he looked
forward to discussing all issues from a strategic and long-term perspective and that both sides
should begin intensive preparations for the visit,”
Assumptions:
(I) Chinese President is expected to visit India later this year for a summit with Mr. Modi.
(II) The two leaders discussed the status of the bilateral relationship since the Wuhan summit of
April 2018, which came in the backdrop of tension following the 73-day Doklam standoff.
Statement: Giving all children aged three and above the right to an education can become a
reality only if the state is willing to live up to its promise of devoting more financial resources.
An expenditure of 6% of GDP on education could have transformed the sector, given the large
wealth generated since economic liberalisation. But far less is spent for instance, 2.7% in 2017-
18. The lost years have cost millions a brighter future, but the draft NEP provides an opportunity
to make amends.
Assumptions:
(I) Governments will have to fill teacher vacancies and ensure that the training of recruits is
aligned to scientific, child-oriented teaching methods.
(II) The Centre has to guarantee that in its totality, the Right to Education will encompass all
schools bar those catering to minorities. This is necessary to achieve its moral goal of bringing
quality schooling to all in the 6-14 age group; adding the early childhood section, now under the
Ministry of Women and Child Development, will then be meaningful.
(5) If either I or II are implicit.
statement.
Statements: The Traffic Police Department has placed notices at all major intersections of the
city, warning the drivers to refrain from using mobile phones while driving otherwise heavy fines
will be imposed on them.
Assumption:
I. Drivers of vehicles can ignore the warning and continue to use cell phones while driving.
II. The traffic police department may be able to catch and act on most people who do not follow
