Now two new important questions : 4. Compare and contrast the conditions of Growth of Tea and Coffee in India. Why Tea grows at higher elevation than Coffee in South India 5. Cloudbursts have happened in past also, but the amount of death and damage in Uttarakhand is unprecedented. Why? Is this Himalayan Tsunami is a man-made disater? Why or why not?
Shouldn't we try to write answers within the world limit of 10 marks or 12.5 marks. The most difficult part of writing an answer you know to get max marks is trying to compress it, at least that is what i found.
If you give model answers that way, it will help us see what can be eliminated, how it can be presented in the shortest possible way.
