Test 16, Q38.
Statement 1-ALLDelhi Durbars were conducted atCoronation Park, Delhi.
This has been marked incorrect according to the answer key.
I believe this statement is correct.
1. Proof for1877 coronationat Coronation Park.
2. Plaque at Coronation Park specifically mentions1911 coronation.
3. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/new-delhis-106th-anniversary-coronation-pillar-wears-defaced-look/articleshow/62041742.cms

The1903 coronation.
Edit- On second thought, it says "all charges of british troops in India, and partial cost of TRANSPORTATION to and fro India"
It could be interpreted that cost ofwaging war is not included per se. Confusing.
Today's test Que no 15 Home charges answer given here is D , this question was asked pre 2011 , and official UPSC key says B.Que no 59.copy-of-cut-off-20113.jpggs_paper_i.pdfgs_paper_i.pdf
@TH14 Allahabad Durbar. 1858.
Question is asking about only the Delhi Durbar
@TH14 question says "waging war outside INDIA. "Whereas snap shot of R. C. Dutta book reads " cost of military and other stores suppliedTo INDIA "
Read the jagranjosh link. It elaborates on home charges. same can be found in Dutt's book verbatim.
There is some confusion though.

Q 27,
The statement 1 is Navjivan was the first Gujarati Newspaper to be published by Mahatma Gandhi.
But Bombay Samachar was the first Gujarati newspaper instead of Navjivan in 1822.
Pls clarify..
Dear Forum IAS,
All the tests of Polity went well. Sir@Thinker clarified all our doubts on this platform. But from the day History subject Tests are started there is no Teacher is here to clear our doubts.
One must also understand that not everyone is getting discussion of tests. There are at least 300 students who are left out of discussion. So, kindly provide some teacher who can clear our doubts on this platform. Even if it cleared doubt of at least single aspirant, then also there is success of this platform.
Thank you.
