Hello guys .. alot of bloodshed has been happening so please dont beat me or cuss at me when I say this ..
so I spoke to one of my professors at DU (Political science department) about that polity question - safeguards of liberty in a liberal democracy and she definitely says the answer is Elected Government. She said though separation of powers and rule of law are other ingredients but all of them wont be possible if a state does not have anelectedgovernmentat first (also the question specifically says liberal democracy) .. only then those things can be assured. She also told me that with respect to such questions - read some philosophers (even if not from an optional background) like Aristotle, JS mill , Berlin etc in free time and that may in general invoke some interest. Also despite my background in this subject , I haven’t taken PSIR optional so don’t think that I am in anyway advertising any optional .. just putting an end to this debate of “one of many interpretation “based questions.
@Shambhavi_singh one of economics Professor also said in 2019 bank chairman are selected by finance ministry. That's why this exam is a generalist one
Really 😐
Generalist toh ab kuch hai hi nahi yaar .. every subject requires more than grad level understanding ..
fir toh bhagwaan hi bachae ..

I too marked Elected government option but ye wala galat hai. Mera 2 polity ke mistakes bahut bhaari padne wale hain. Doosra Article 32 mark kiya maine.
Yaar unhone bola toh correct Elected govt hai .. I asked an expert to finally put an end to this debate ki kya hoga ..
even I marked that article wala question as 32. Some stupid mistakes of polity and economy(like that last resort question)is also going to cost me alot ..

probably your expert isn't so expert. because there is a difference between elected government and elected government by universal adult franchise
Oh acha! Itna specific hona padta hai .. ki matlab universal adult franchise bhi mentioned ho..
maybe yaar you are right. My source is an LSR professor who teaches political theory and constitution from the past 20 years and has written many things on this topic so I thought she would not be wrong in this.
Lets see :)
@Shambhavi_singh ok so what i feel is elected govt. is also essential for liberal state according to lockean contractual tradition because social contract essentially involves consent of the willing. but merely saying elected govt will safeguard liberty provides great room for subjectivity. it is a precondition for liberty but a safeguard is always a free judiciary. even if elected govt was chosen by people it can itself become the principal threat to liberty if its power is not restricted. so if we talk of most essential safeguard separation of powers is correct. alternatively, if liberty is a fundamental right under article 19 of a democratic liberal state of india, what do you think is best safeguard for your fundamental right, elected government or free judiciary?(separation of powers)with all due respect to your professor, i just relied on common sense and basic minimum constitutional awareness.btw, my optional is psir :)
Your point definitely makes alot of sense!
