UPSC Previous Year Questions: CSP 2021
One cannot place less emphasis on the fact as to how important it is to solve questions asked by UPSC Previously. In fact, UPSC tends to repeat from its own stock, verbatim.
This thread, shall be solely dedicated for posting questions asked in CSP & CAPF.
I shall be posting questions here on a daily basis. Urge you all to answer these in all seriousness. Shoot doubts if you have any, wrt solving any question.
Remember the idea is to solve them, again. Reading questions and solutions is NOT sufficient.
Cheers!

Hi request you to please reply to the posts or put the Question number. Can't decipher it is an answer to which Question

B? Damn nice question. From what I've read, the basic structure of the constitution can be changed in the following ways:
1. Formation of a new Constituent Assembly by the sovereign power(the people) to replace the old Constitution
2. By revolution resulting in overthrow of the Republic established by the Constitution of 1950
The Parliament is merely a delegate of power under the Constitution, and therefore, it does not have the authority to destroy the fundamental features of the very document that: 1. Establishes it; 2. allows and legitimises the usage of legislative/constituent powers exercised by it. (Based on reading of Keshavanand Bharti and Minerva Mills)
Don't know which answer UPSC will accept as correct though.

Monopolistic competition is a market structure which combines elements of monopoly and competitive markets. A monopolistic competitive industry has the following features:
- Many firms.
- Freedom of entry and exit.
- Firms produce differentiated products.
- Firms have price inelastic demand; they are price makers because the good is highly differentiated
- Firms make normal profits in the long run but could make supernormal profits in the short term
- Firms are allocatively and productively inefficient

Mataji Maharani Tapaswini was one of the strongest proponents of female education in India. Her greatest contribution came in the form of the Mahakali Pathshala which she set up in Kolkata in 1893.
The school was a completely indigenous affair which did not rely on either foreign aid or assistance. The education of girls was carried out on a strictly national basis in the hopes that they would be able to revive and regenerate Hindu society.
