    santra has said 10-12 questions are open to subjective interpretation. If even 5 questions are dropped, the cutoff may drop to 100 and then the fuhrer's information will be bang on target :smiley:
    What if Upsc In reply gives answers to all the controversial questions.. I think no question would b dropped
    do you think so? it is the most opaque system, it will never release answerkeys before the whole process. They had already given reasons for it
  • Supreme court to hear plea on UPSC prelim exam today

    The Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to hear a PIL complaining there were wrong questions in this year’s Civil Services Preliminary exam conducted on June 18.

    A UPSC aspirant who took the test, mentioned the petition before a bench headed by justice Dipak Misra who agreed to hear the case on Thursday.

    Petitioner claimed this year’s paper had questions with multiple answers and many were open to subjective interpretation of the examinees. She said there is no predetermined syllabus for prelims and the pattern changes every year.

    She said that the standard of the paper has seen a marked decline over the past two years. Last year, the exam had questions testing rote learning of current affairs, similar to those asked in clerical exams.

    The applicants resort to either matching their answers with the keys released by coaching institutes or look up answers on the internet and various books.

    This year was a new low, wherein all standards of lowliness were broken,” She claimed, adding that the absence of any answer key has left the future of the aspirants uncertain. Unlike the previous years, this year’s paper had multiple answers and questions open to subjective interpretation.

    The coaching keys themselves differed in about 10-12 questions, She said, submitting a list of them.

    She cited earlier Supreme Court judgments to state that a question having two or more corrects answers should be considered as incorrect.

    Chawla has asked the court to direct the UPSC to release the answer key to the prelims examination and also set up an expert committee to examine this year’s papers.

    .........

    Doesn't matter what the result of this is. But after reading the bold parts in a national newspaper, kaleje ko thandak mil gaya. UPSC will stop taking prelims questions lightly next year and in future. Thank you santra. :)

    IVC question is a reason enough for PIL.

    No person can deny the ambiguity in IVC question. Let UPSC try to prove. :)

    They are ready with all their answers .. I mean if questions are prepared their answer would also be in place.. so no ambiguity as such it is just play of words and understanding
