Looks like devi lal contesting from 3 constituencies in 1991 is factually incorrect like someone here pointed out

Zyada hoshiyar banne pe yehi hota hai. Question hi galat frame ho jata hai.

Devi Lal contested from three seats in 1991 and he lost in all. He contested from two seats in 1989 and won both.

this score of 88 according to insights and nextias is giving me chills. Just 3-4 questions in which j made stupidity have made remarkable difference in my score. the examination pressure there has caused such damage. I am sure that I will be out of race this time. maybe next time!

@bhuvanamalar1015412 with so much confusion in answers across keys, even a person with 100+ score is not sure. and most confusing situation is with the people like me (score of 88) who despite numerous doubtful questions are hoping to get few more correct answers and a lower cutoff to qualify.

This year, I have seen so many "Veteran in UPSC'--->Making4-5 silly mistakes each (eg Bethun school, Right to privacy, ascending and descending order etc)

Few scoringabove 95+, they had differentmethods of cooperation...for eg Fearful of passing CSAT.....!!

Very very cooperative people.....loved it. 

No doubt, Everyone is playing a significant rolein bring down cut-off to itshistoric lowto-->84.5-86.5 or Even DOWN (NO damn plus minus 2)

Thanks everyone! :) :) 

this lower is not going i guess! but then nothing can be sure about UPSC

15,16,19,29,30 are available to citizens only. Art. 19(1) (f) had right to property. after amendment it was shifted under Article 300A. So that amendment changed the scope as well?

i marked this as citizens only out of sheer confusion!
