Official: SFG / RLG All Tests Discussions in one place

Hello All,

The Group usage here is a little cumbersome, so I am creating this thread to make sure that all questions with doubts stay in one place. Can someone push all the doubts and queries here? I will make this an announcement?

@subu It should be RESERVE Tranche Position...there is no such concept as Reverse Tranche Position.

I asked the invigilator in my classroom about theReverseoption. He went out, asked someone and told me that it is Reserve. I conveyed the same to the teacher who discusses the test, he told me that he'll consider my case.

He also said that we should take care about such questions. Even though it was a mistake, it was prudent to stick to the options 100%

12. Viceroy was just a title, meaning "representative of the crown", bestowed upon Governor General of India, by Act of 1858 and revoked by Act of 1947. However, he was GG-of India all through.
Even Lord Mountbatten and C Rajagopalachari were GG-of India after Act of 1947.

2. Revised key

6. Parliamentary system may be bicameral or unicameral(Sweden). Bicameralism is key feature of Indian Federalism, nothing directly related to Parliamentary system.

40. Kindly refer Article 25(2) of Indian Constitution. - Secular existed earlier too.
42nd CAA added it in preamble; (not in Constitution for the first time)

I hope I have answered all parts.

W.rt Question no. 4 of Test no 5.. The third option is..

"Exercise of powers of the president without the advice of council of ministers shall be unconstitutional."

deemed as Correct in answer key..

But isn't it only the "Executive power" which must be based on advice of council of ministers...since in other cases having Situational discretion president can act without advice of council of ministers.

Question no. 49,  statement 2. Only 1 person was elected President twice.

It is correct as Rajendra Prasad is only one.

And Question has asked incorrect statement (s). But key has d option- neither 1 or 2.


In question no. 26

Both statements are correct regarding Vice-president's removal- statement 1: removed by resolution of RS by absolute majority and agreed by LS.

2: No ground in Constitution for same.

Answer key says b-only 2 correct.

Please check!
