[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

@kartikeybhatt171778  There was no debate on ‘ women education’ dont make up stuff. She personally wanted to study and her husband wanted them consummate the marriage. The case was filed because she refused to get personal with her husband. It was not about her studies.

 This led to wide debates on Conjugal rights , child marriage and age of consent and not on whether women should be allowed to study or not. That was limited to her personal sphere. Read sekhar Bandopadhaya

Friends in case of fertigation , we can control the alkalinity of soil rather than alkalinity of irrigation water.... And phosphatic fertilizers are applicable apparently. So, shouldn't answer be 2,3,4 for fertigation question. 

True!

@Navya it is taken from articles..no where i could find right to education...age of consent and conjugl rights are mentioned everywhere

@Navya This reiterates  the exact point which I am saying. She was denied education ( personal) but the CASE  was about conjugal rights and age of consent. So the public debate was on conjugal rights and child marriage ( age of consent) .

@Navya how is 4th option correct? By fertigation, how exactly is leaching controlled? Because it's still irrigation water which settles on soil. By poor water seepage, the minerals can still be leached.

Aadhar and preamble are not controversial. For preamble it's D. FOR AADHAAR its 2&4.

Aint the question was about Legal case? and not about what she thinks or wrote in biography

@chelseaboy  The question asked about the issues around which the case revolved and not the outcome of case. Equal education Right was very the central issue as it is observed in the article about rukmabhai and her case

Even if someone says that you have 100% chance, you won't believe until the PDF says so. So why to bother much. 
Go with study for mains.
I too have wasted last 3 days in this.

Csat mein ek aur baat... Jo rich only cities likha tha, vo bhi sahi hai, para ke anusaar jaaiye, naa ki only dekhkar bas bhaag jao, para mein rich rich rich paisa paisa hi likha hai ki, eski hi kami hai, to both answer hoga. Thoda sahi se padejn para ko and para ke bahar naa jaaye, kyunki sirf financial constraint ke baare mein hi para hai poora, jo richness se problem ko solve karega sirf

I am afraid your Assertion is wrong
from article

” If cities were rich enough to meet the entire cost, water could be delivered free. They are not, and therefore they have to charge. Unfortunately, politicians are reluctant to charge even when consumers may be willing to pay, more especially if it leads to better delivery of good quality water.”

if cities arnt rich they have to collect user charge to meet sustainable delivery of water
No where it says ‘only’ rich cities can give free water.
 Hence no first option


 All the best
