GENERAL STUDIES / Model
Questions based on (Current Affairs)
1)Consider the following :
1)A study by the International Food Policy Research Institute shows
that stunting prevalence varies across districts (12.4-65.1%), and almost 40%
districts have stunting levels above 40%. U.P. tops the list, with six out of
10 districts having the highest rates of stunting.
2) According to NFHS-4 data, India has more stunted children in
rural areas as compared to urban areas, possibly due to the low socio-economic
status of households in those areas.
3) The aim of the National Nutrition Strategy of 2017 is to achieve
a malnutrition-free India by 2022. The plan is to reduce stunting prevalence in
children (0-3 years) by about three percentage points per year by 2022 from
NFHS-4 levels, and achieve a one-third reduction in anaemia in children,
adolescents and women of reproductive age.
4)The mandate of the committee is to provide technical
recommendations to NTBN (National Technical Board on Nutrition) on policy
related issues and also to evolve strategies for mitigation of anaemia,
micronutrient and protein malnutrition
Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?
(a) 1 and 2 only
(b)2 and 3 only
(c ) 1,2,3,4
(d) None of these
Ans:c
2)Consider the following :
1)“It is abnormal but not
unusual,” says D S Pai, the head of climate services division of the India
Meteorological Department (IMD). Official response is always presented using
the tact of terminology.
2)Over 11 straight days of
tempestuous rainfall, nearly 25 trillion litres of water fell on Kerala—an area
of 38,800 square kilometres cramped with mountain ranges; third-highest
population density in the country; and, 44 rivers with 61 dams—with apocalyptic
fury.
3)Typically, Kerala
receives strong monsoon showers in June and July as the southwest monsoon gains
strength, after which there is a lull in the latter two months of the monsoon.
While the first two months saw slightly above normal rains this year, the
normalcy did not extend into August. Within the first three weeks of the month,
the state received close to 500 mm of rain over and above the normal rainfall
of about 290 mm.
4)Of the 760 mm rainfall
received by the state since the beginning of the month, close to 75 per cent
was received in the eight days between August 9 and 17, representing a
departure from normal by around 300 per cent for the time period.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?
(a) 1 and 2 only
(b)2 and 3 only
(c ) 1,2,3,4
(d) None of these
Ans:c
3)Consider the following :
1)In 2017 , India consumed
10.80 million tonnes of palm oil of which 10.36 million tonnes was imported
from Indonesia and Malaysia .
2)This oil palm
plantation, spanning a massive 22,000 hectares (ha) in the Indonesian island of
Sulawesi, can be the envy of any official in India trying hard to make the
country self-sufficient in edible oil production. India is one of the major
growers of oilseeds. Its vegetable oil economy is the fourth-largest after the
US, China and Brazil.
3)Yet the country relies
on imports to meet over 70 per cent of its vegetable oil requirements; almost
60 per cent of the requirement is met through palm oil. The reason is simple.
Palm oil is cheap—it costs 20 per cent less than most vegetable oils—as well as
versatile.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?
(a) 1 and 2
(b) 2 and 3
(c ) 1,2,3
(d) None of these
Ans:c
4)Consider the following :
1) The Centre will announce minimum support prices (MSPs) of 23 crops
for the kharif season.
2)The MSP will be 1.5 times of farmers' investment, Prime Minister
Narendra Modi said in his nation-wide interaction with the farmers recently. In the
last budget, Centre pledged to boost farmers’ returns by increasing
government’s purchase prices for crops by more than 50 per cent of the output
While the idea of MSP is being sold as a silver bullet, reports show that crops
with MSP account for only 28 per cent of the total value of agricultural
output.
3)In fact, less than 5.8 per cent of agricultural households across
India are actually able to sell their produce to the government, said the
high-level Shanta Kumar Committee report. Under such
circumstances, it is important to re-analyse the economics of farm input cost,
MSPs, farm income and also ensure that farmers get access to
markets at the right time, which still remains an issue cost.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?
(a) 1 and 2
(b) 2 and 3
(c ) 1,2,3
(d) None of these
Ans:c
5)Consider the following statements :
1. “The Central government as well as the Administrator [the term
used in the Constitution to refer to the Lieutenant-Governor] should be true to
the concept of democratic principles. Otherwise, the constitutional scheme of
the country of being democratic and republic would be defeated.
2. Though Article 239AA imposes several restrictions on the
legislature of Delhi, no such restrictions had been imposed explicitly in the
case of Puducherry under Article 239A.
3. In his judgment, Justice Mahadevan also went on to point out the
differences between the powers conferred on the legislatures of Puducherry and
Delhi under Articles 239A and 239AA of the Constitution.
4. The Madras High Court on Tuesday ruled that the
Lieutenant-Governor (L-G)of Puducherry could not interfere with the day-to-day
administration of the Union Territory when an elected government was in place.
The court said incessant interference from the L-G would amount to running a
“parallel government.”

here, which is closely monitoring the Extremely Severe Cyclonic Storm
"Fani" round the clock, has warned of likely damage to locations even
far away along the east coast due to sustained high winds, storm surges and
swell waves.
2. The nearshore waves are being measured using WAMAN (Wave
Monitoring Along Near-shore) buoy network, with real-time communication of the
data, deployed at Puducherry, Krishnapatnam, Visakhapatnam, Gopalpur and Digha,
3. The system is likely to move northwestwards during next 12 hours
and recurve north-northeastwards and cross the Odisha coast between Gopalpur
and Chandbali, to the south of Puri around May 3 afternoon with maximum
sustained wind of speed 175-185 kmph gusting to 205 kmph
4. Warnings to fishermen in deep sea is being given through NAVIC
gadget, developed by ISRO and INCOIS. Ships even 1500 km away can receive
messages on cyclones and tsunamis, as well as information on high wave alerts
and potential fishing zone advisories through this gadget unlike other modes of
communication restricted to few tens of kilometers

7)Consider the following statements :
1. In October 2001, the UNSC committee had listed the
Jaish-e-Mohammad, noting that it was the organisation Azhar founded and funded
with help from Osama Bin Laden, but didn’t ban Azhar himself.
2. Later after the 26/11 attacks, India proposed the ban, but was
thwarted by China which refused to accept evidence against Azhar. In 2016 and
2017, China repeated that move, although it accepted other listings against
terrorists based in Pakistan, raising the sense that Azhar was especially
protected by Pakistan’s establishment.
3. In 2019, after the Pulwama attacks, and world pressure, however,
it seemed China could no longer hold out. Despite that, China did place a hold
on the listing on March 13, which it has now removed.

2. The NCAP unveiled in January is envisaged as a scheme to provide
the States and the Centre with a framework to combat air pollution.
3. The NCAP requires cities to implement specific measures such as
“ensuring roads are pothole-free to improve traffic flow and thereby reduce
dust” (within 60 days) or “ensuring strict action against unauthorised brick
kilns” (within 30 days). It doesn’t specify an exact date for when these
obligations kick in. Experts have criticised the lack of mandatory targets and
the challenge of inadequate enforcement by cities.

The industry witnessed a new mobile generation ever since the introduction of
1G in the 1980s.
Consider the following :
I) 2G started to roll out in 1990 and gave the consumers
voice calling and text messaging
2) 3G was first implemented in 2001 and paved the way for
using the Internet on mobile phones, picture sharing, and Bluetooth. The 3G
network, a breakthrough in communications, provided the speed of up to 21.1
Mbps. In 3G, the signals are received from the nearest phone tower and are used
for phone calls, messaging and data
3) 4G offers lower latency (time taken for a packet of
data to move from one point to another), broadband speed on mobile phones, and
is supposed to be at least 5x faster than 3G. 4G can offer download speeds of
up to 100 Mbps, enables social media, video streaming, and makes it easier to
order food or a taxi with a few clicks through mobile apps

bone-dry top layer, a thin transition layer and a hydrated layer, where water
molecules stick to bits of soil and rock called regolith.
3. The lunar surface composition can be divided into three layers — a
bone-dry top layer, a thin transition layer and a hydrated layer, where water
molecules stick to bits of soil and rock called regolith.
4. The researchers estimate that the “hydrated layer has a water
concentration of about 200 to 500 parts per million, or about 0.02 to 0.05 per
cent by weight.” This means that it is still extremely dry even compared to the
driest places on earth.

General Chakravarty Rajagopalachari on August 17, 1948.
2. The Khasi states, though, did not sign the Instrument of Merger
unlike most other states in India.
3. During the British rule, the Khasi domain was divided into the
Khasi states and British territories. At that time, the British government had
no territorial right on the Khasi states and they had to approach the chiefs of
these states if they needed land for any purpose.
4. After independence, the British territories became part of the
Indian dominion but the Khasi states had to sign documents beginning with the
Standstill Agreement that provided a few rights to the states,”

Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?
(a)1 and 2
(b)2 only
( c ) 1 and 3
(d) 1,2,3
Ans : d
34)With reference to educational institutions during
colonial rule in India, consider the following :
1. The
rugged eastern highlands that transform as the midlands and as coastal regions
make Kerala’s landscape spectacular, but it is also vulnerable to natural
processes that can lead to disasters
2. While urbanisation (poorly planned drainage, underpasses, lack of
waste, recycling, etc.) is an important factor in causing floods in large
cities (Chennai, Mumbai) the story of Kerala is different
3. It is not just urbanisation, it is the unscientific use of its
land and water resources that has added to the severity of damage.
Unchecked tourism and illegal constructions, mostly related to
tourism (again arising from lack of regulations) is another factor that is so
relevant as they provide the triggering conditions enhanced by the rain.
4.
The other issue is with our river management, including construction of dams.
Unlike other large rivers (like
Godavari, Narmada), the rivers in Kerala are smaller and narrower.
5.
The numerous dams across these rivers have reduced the flow into the rivers and
over time, their floodplains have shrunk, and people have occupied these
floodplains. Not just for cultivation, but also for construction.

(b)1,2,3,4,5
( c ) 1 and 3
(d) 3 only
Ans : b
35)Consider the following :
1. The current account measures the flow of goods, services and
investments into and out of the country.
2. We run into a deficit if the value of the goods and services we
import exceeds the value of those we export.
3. The current account includes net income, including interest and
dividends, and transfers, like foreign aid
4. As
the Rupee is under pressure — it hit the 71-mark against the dollar in that
week — and oil prices are inching up, it
will impact the current account. While the present depreciation is mainly due
to external factors with the dollar strengthening against all emerging market
currencies, the rising trade deficit is adding to the worry about the currency.
The rupee is the worst performing currency among the emerging market economies

36)Consider the following :
1. Rulers everywhere tend to treat trenchant criticism as attempts to
excite disaffection and disloyalty. That is perhaps the only reason that Section 124-A of the Indian Penal Code,(Sedition) enacted under colonial rule, remains
on the statute book. There have been repeated instances of its misuse
2. Regimes at the Centre and the States have often been shown
in poor light after they invoked the section against activists, detractors,
writers and even cartoonists.
3. Since Independence, many have seen the irony of retaining a
provision that was used extensively to suppress the freedom struggle
4. However, as long as sedition is seen as a reasonable restriction
on free speech on the ground of preserving public order, it will be difficult
to contain its mischief. There can only be two ways of undoing the harm it does
to citizens’ fundamental rights: it can be amended so that there is a much
narrower definition of what constitutes sedition, but the far better course is
to do away with it altogether.

2. The State government enforced the Manipur Wildlife (Protection)
Act 1972, and later declared Keibul Lamjao as the National Park. Officials said

3. The Phumlenpat in Thoubal district is quite different from the
Loktak Lake in Bishnupur district. There is no plant or grass or floating bio
mass in the Phumlenpat Lake which means the deer will starve to death.
4. The deer stays in the floating bio-mass to give the impression
that they are dancing. They relish the water plant sprouts found in the
floating bio-mass.

42)Consider
the following :
1)The
Supreme Court’s judgment in 1997 in Visakha v. State of Rajasthan is a
watershed in its history. In the absence of any domestic law occupying a field
providing for measures to check the evils of sexual harassment at all
workplaces, the Supreme Court invoked its extraordinary powers under Article 32
to lay down a new law to fill the vacuum.
2)In
so doing, the judges laid emphasis on Fundamental Rights under Articles 14, 15,
19(1)(g) and 21 of the Constitution together with International Conventions and
Article 51C and 253 of the Constitution.
3)They
emphasised guarantee of gender equality and right to work with human dignity
amongst others. The judges relied upon the Beijing Declaration of 1995 where
the Chief Justices of Asia and Pacific had inter-alia declared
that amongst the objectives and functions of the judiciary is ‘to ensure that
all persons are able to live securely under the Rule of Law’.
4)Relying
upon ‘Convention on Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women’
the judges referred to the rights of women and in particular, the right to
work, as an inalienable right of all human beings and to ‘the right to
protection of health and to safety in working conditions including the
safeguarding of the function of reproduction’.
