  • Shankar has many wrong answers. NCERT clearly says sutkador had horse fossils. Polity of Shankar is a disaster. Most of them are wrong. DPSP are indeed limitations on state's power. A Pvt member bill was recently passed in RS i.e, "in the parliament" on transgender. Cabinet is for quick decision making and not collective responsibility which is COM. Moreover it was added by amendment. FD are correlated to legal duties e.g, environment protection act, flag code, IPC provisions against public disorders etc. Also constitution gives every indian above 18 the right to vote and the same constitution provides us the right to contest and get elected in the different elections. These rights can't be amended without constitutional amendment unlike the legal rights!
    I doubt if DPSP is really a limitation on state's powers. If so, no state would have overturned prohibition.

    A private member's bill was recently passed by the RS. but the question specifically states " for the first time in history". there were several private member's bills passed in the 1960s.

    Cabinet question is very tricky. You maybe right if we take it in its literal sense. But Laxmikanth says 'cabinet form of government' is merely another name for parliamentary system. So we cant be sure about that.

    Also, for fundamental duties and legal provisions regarding the same, I am not very sure if flag code can be described as a legal duty because its just a set of rules made by the executive. Also, is there any specific duties mentioned in Environment protection Act, IPC etc? I think all those are just limitations, not really duties.

    While I will wait for Vaji key for other questions, I just want to point out that that Transgender bill was not the FIRST pvt memb bill to be passed .. the first was in 1970s, I think
    boht saare pass ho chuke..

    1. Horse is a controversial one. should not have been asked as objective question. But chances are only 1 will be answer.
    2. Pvt member bill --question said "passed very first time" actually it was 7th but 1st after long time 1961.
    3. Right to vote-court said it is not constitutional right. Famous expert upender baxi wrote in IE that court is wrong. But what court say is law. so legal right.
    4. FD corelated --yes i agree.
  • Can someone please clarify on this link?

    http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/arunachal-pradesh-presidents-rule-quashed-by-sc-nabam-tuki-reinstated-as-cm/

    Once the proclamation of president rule was held unconstitution, the same council of ministers got revived. So, not sure why, as per all the keys, "assembly alone is suspended" while "council of ministers are removed". Assemble is suspended and not dissolved because in case of revival it can be done. Same applies to council of ministers also right? Again not arguing for 2.66 marks but just trying to understand. Arguing here won't help in anyway and I know that
    Technically speaking, as per SR Bommai case even after proclamation of president rule council of ministers are not removed but only suspended and after successful floor test or court order it could be revived.
    Yes, exactly what am saying.

    One query here. I coded my roll no and booklet series correctly in the OMR sheet. But I am not sure whether the invigilator shaded the booklet series code in his section while signing in OMR. Will this be a problem.

    Dude, chill .. He might have coded. Even if he didn't, you have coded in your section. Plus you will be surprised to know that your question paper series and answer booklet number is already known to UPSC (unless you changed your OMR). The OMRs are preassigned to each particular roll no
