"When in doubt, observe and ask questions. When certain, observe at length and ask many more questions."
Created this thread as a one stop solution for all members so that all the doubts wherein any conceptual clarification is required can be solved here.

Can anyone refer to me a source which so emphatically says that Bhakti movement established socio economic equality in the country? Even communism has failed to achieve it and here is someone at ShankarIAS who has declared that as a result of Bhakti movement socio-economic equality was achieved.
This question confused me too. The option is not framed well. Bhakti movement triedto establish socio-economic equality would be appropriate.

Tk17,
What exactly is meant by the 1st statement, anyone? Executive power on matters in concurrent list resides with states. So is it possible to explicitly say that executive power of one is superior to another? Or am I interpreting the statement incorrectly?
257. Control of the Union over States in certain cases
(1) The executive power of every State shall be so exercised as not to impede or prejudice the exercise of the executive power of the Union, and the executive power of the Union shall extend to the giving of such directions to a State as may appear to the Government of India to be necessary for that purpose.
I feel they based it on this?
Yes, but there was a very specific reason he wanted to stay away from the company. Just staying away from the company doesn't make sense. A/c to wikipedia article(I know, not the most reliable but this statement was not pointed out for incorrect citation), Mir Qasim moved his company to Munger to raise his army by streamlining taxes and improving finances.
Isn't the 2nd statement correct too?
'mainly'
Primary reason was to be away from the British. Army remodelling is location independent to an extent.

Would love for others to jump in and give their views.
I answered A because from whatever I had read it seemed that Mir Kasim wanted some breathing space from the British. Both options can be true, but A seemed more probably because remodelling the army is a second order effect. What I mean is, first he wanted to be away from EIC and then later he would be able focus on building his army as a result of being away from Calcutta.

I don't think the provision would mean what shankar interpreted.
