You can not step Twice into the same river

Meaning - river is not the same since new water is flowing and subtle change in "you" also i.e biological changes we as a human is different with every  second passing ---->this analogy could be interpreted in terms of change in our life interpreting it as mistake can be a single component of it but doesn't reflect the entire meaning of the quote and its purpose.

Hi all,

This is my first post. Since the mains exam, one thing has been going in my head regarding the essay paper.

In section B, I attempted the 8th question - "Just because you have a choice, it does not mean that any of them has to be right".

Contrary to the Hindi translation of 'right' i.e. 'sahi' , I interpreted 'right' in the fundamental rights, etc. context. I defined choices and rights.Rights - as claims of individuals against state. Choices - as decision making, speech, practicing religion, etc.

I just want to know if anyone else has done the same. I began the essay with the Anuraddha Bhasin case, where the Supreme Court has allowed the 'choice' of using internet as a right for freedom of expression & profession, but fell short of recognising it as a fundamental right itself. Thereafter, I explored 3 broad headers:

- "not all choices can be rights"

- "some choices have to be rights"

- "There's need of a balance between choices, rights & responsibilities."

Would UPSC allow such interpretation of the question? Any inputs are appreciated.



- Not all choices can be rights

Right to Internet is a fundamental right under Art 19 only for the purpose of freedom of speech & expression, & freedom to practice any profession. However, its not a fundamental right in itself i.e. its not a fundamental right for all purposes.

@deepakY aaapko hindi translation ek baar padh lena chahiye tha. 


I got this lesson from my father. He said that you might attempt the paper in English but you will always be more comfortable with hindi. so if you ever get stuck in understanding the question, try reading hindi version and you may understand the core demand of the question. very nice lesson.

As a Non hindi person, I have clear disadvantage with the exam.
