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?

Test 42 Q 6

Sir in this question statement 2 mentions that classification of plan and non-plan expenditure was ended by government in the budget in 2016. 

 In the Indian Economy by Ramesh Singh book, it is mentioned that it was announced in Union Budget 2017-18 and not in 2016. (Page: 18.4)

 Therefore answer should be ( a ) and not ( c ).

 Please clarify.

@Thinker 

For question no 15 of test no 45.

 It's a previous year verbatim question and answer is c as per official upsc key whereas the key given by forumIas has D as answer.

Avanti and Gandhara are not associated with life of Buddha.

@Thinker - Q26 (test 45)


Statement 1: its not Rashtrakuta, but the CHOLA EMPIRE, was divided into mandalams and Nadus. Rashtrakuta was divided into Rashtras, vishyas and bhuktis.


So answer should be B. (answer key says c)

Someone please rectify.

@Thinker - Q29 (test 45)

Jaina propounded that "there is no God",whereas Buddhism neither accepts nor rejects God.  But both of them advocate non violence (may or may not be absolute)


So the most appropriate option is B.


Answer given is d.

Pls clarify

Respected Mar/Madam,


          
            Today's test number 45 of SFG about South Indian kingdom and Jainism and Buddhism. There are two answer given as wrong answer. 

1) Question number 15 answer is given 
D but it's "C" about Kingdom Associated with Buddha, only Kosala and Magadha associated with life of Buddha not Avanti, it's previous year UPSC question.

2) Question number 26 anwer is given C but it's "B" Because Cholas empire was divided into Mandalams and nadus not Rastrakutas.

Kindly Correct above answer and revise Answer key and also Revise Rank list.
  
                                                     Regards,
                                                     Vijay Rahane
