Please check Q.37 regarding Union Territory of Puducherry..how is statement 1 wrong? All are correct

Lt Governor is not a head of state. It is an office subordinate to President and he has to function as an officer of the center in Centrally Administered territory i.e. Union Territory.

Please rectify the answer key of Q.No.34.The 2nd statement i.e.State govt.can borrow only from within india is correct.So the ans.should be option-C-Both1&2.

Q.21


CARA is statutory body of Ministry of Women & Child Development established under Juvenile Justice Act, 2015.answer of Q.21 should be C


Q.49

Water disputes Act 1956 does not empower parliament.it empowers centre to set up ad hoc tribunal

answer of Q.49 should be C


Q.32

Why is option C wrong. Isn’t it a vague statement?ans can be either A or D

Q21) CARA was established in 1990 and given statutory status in the 2015 Juvenile Justice Act. As the question is asking which bodies were established by the Juvenile Justice Act 2015 the option 2 is wrong. CARA was not established under the Juvenile Justice Act 2015. It was given statutory status under the ACT of 2015 and not established under it.


Q49) Question is asking to identify theINCORRECTstatement hence answer is 1 only.


Q32) Ans is A only i.e. 1 and 2.

Also this part? As all this are not applicable now

All these are applicable in modified form. Plz, go though the 101st Constitutional amendment Act to update the version. Basically new articles have been added via this act without changing the subject matter of Art 266 to 270.

Hello,

How can you have such confusion? It means you are not reading the qustion carefully. Read the questions twice!

#21 AFAIK, CARA and NCPRC are not created by Juvenile Justice Act! JJA only established the JJ Board! Answer is correct!

#49 It says NOT! You are correct. Are you not putting a box around the "not" or "incorrect" as soon as you see it? It is suicidal! You will get these questions wrong in exam also. From next test please put a rectangle around NOT . INCORRECT WRONG etc.

#32 Key is correct. IT is a factual question!

Q 18: statement 3 should be incorrect. does the state have the power to declare, means of communication as national importance? I don't think so. Even Laxmikanth mentions it in brackets, which means states necessarily don't have power.

We have already canceled the question because of the same concern. The explanation has also been provided for the same at the bottom of the answerkey.

@Thinker  With respect to statement 1 of Q 29 - its an abridged form of Art 365. 

Art 365 says - When state has failed to comply with 'any' directions  " given in exercise of Executive power of Union" undet the provisions of Constitution then....


While statement 1 uses 'any' in a blanket form which i think makes the statement incorrect as only constitutional directions from Centre to State qualifies under this.

Centre directing the state for eg to make law on a state subject or directing it to reduce mortality rate by x%, etc aren't constitutional directions & hence not following them isn't reason for applying President Rule. (SC in Bommai case has laid down cases of improper & proper use of Art 356).
