the question is not actually talking about epfo in general. The question clearly mentions, “ with respect to casual workers employed in India “. So the question is about casual workers in general and not epfo. 


“Entitled/eligible”

@sleeplessnights89 we have been miser when comes to appreciating ourselves. The race starts quiet early from 10 th boards then choosing stream and being in good books if you science and then 12th board comes for science students its about getting in iits for us its about getting in top colleges of DU, process doesnt stop here then comes packages then if we are in upsc we are utterly not even allowed to do anything rather studying any random person can come and ask dumbest of question and say are you seriously preparing for Ias?
Then questions like bhai tu toh topper that ab tak upsc nhi nilka,16 ghante padhta hoga yr
personally have felt how it feels to be grip of mental health issues like anxiety and learned to increase my serotonin by recognising how far i have come and where my calibre lies.

@Shubz this is exactly the case many of us are ARTS BACKGROUND STUDENT AS WELL for many of us carbon monoxide in any case is lethal or that matter any other science question.


I have never seen upsc taking a narrow interpretation in such questions. Can be verified from ans keys till 2019. In 2020 also same thing might have happened as I was able to clear forest cutoff(maybe because of such questions going in my favour).

So rest assured,that lethal amt of carbon dioxide opt will definitely be correct. In 2019 as well,many biotech experts brought their subject knowledge to prove their opt correct. But ultimately they all were proved wrong by upsc.

@Shubz what do you think about epf ? how are all casual workers entitled ? coz income criteria is there and number of workers criteria is also there.

 General issues on Environmental Ecology, Bio-diversity and Climate Change - that do not require subject specialisation - mentioned in cse prelims notification

The paper is targeted towards creating level playing field between science and non science students. Isliye zyada technical dimag lagane se answer galat hi hoga.

Pressure cooker ho,magnetite ho,virus wala ho ya koi aur question ho. Jo commonly acceptable fact ho usi ko upsc answer manegi.

2021 paper was luck based entirely..whose luck shone in that day would be qualifying..it wSnt for someone who worked hard n sincere..its apparently visible..so cruel for people who sweat day n night

Yes UPSC should rename itself as APSC(arbitrary public service commission). Maybe they dnt want aspirants to continuously prepare full time for this exam. Isliye aise discourage kr rahe hai.

I totally agree with you. Pollution itself is a negative concept and hence the word “ lethal “ need not be seen as an extreme statement I believe. Moreover the word “ may “ makes the statement a possibility and hence should be considered correct.

@atulji do see vivek sir IRS solution of this q on Shubhra ranjan channel.  There is a word "entitled" in this statement

bro the only question from my side regarding casual workers is, why are NCERTs talking about informalisation of workforce ? It’s because all the workers are not having social security coverage. I inferred from those topics that ALL workers ( obviously casual workers are more vulnerable ) are not covered under epf. 


I request you to correct me if I’m wrong.

yeah dude entitlement confers a right upon us to claim it. Whereas many casual workers, Especially those working in establishments with less than 20 workers don’t have right to demand epf. Hence first statement is wrong

@srivalliguru940 u marked it correct. Dont fret over it. it gave 3 statements with "all" written in all 3. that first statement has to go.
