Test no 6, question no 6 - as per the answer key the correct answer is C. But the correct option should be A.

Why? because Inter state water disputes act 1956, clearlybars the jurisdiction of SC and any other courts of india over inter state river water disputes as per the provision of article 262. So, the statement should be wrong.

But SC still engage with many water dispute because of its sheer power under A136(SLP) and not because of this ISWDA1956.

can anybody crosscheck and verify the correct answer of question no 6

Test No 6, Question No 39 - correct answer as per the answer key is d 

Statement 1 is correct- No doubt 

Statement 3 is wrong- No doubt (2/3rd)  

But, statement 2 says - These services reflect the "truefederal nature of Indian constitution."

What does it mean by true federal nature of Indian constitution? If it means Indian Federalism tried to accommodate  diversity as well as unity(more power to union as compared to states). then the statement 2 should be correct as AIS reflect this point.

I understand AIS as such goes against the principle of federalism and on its part it reflect unitary tendency but I think the framing of statement is wrong( it should be - "these services reflect thefederal aspectof indian constitution" Or these services reflect feature of federalism- then the statement will be wrong).

can anybody elaborate it or am i interpreting in wrong way.

@ranahere999 The Question Hour is mentioned in Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business (in Lok Sabha as well as in Rajya Sabha); here is the link of pdf https://rajyasabha.nic.in/rsnew/rs_rule/rules_pro.pdf ; http://164.100.47.194/loksabha/rules/RULES-2010-P-FINAL_1.pdf ; 
so, the answer key is stating statement wrong because the statement mentioned "Rules of Business of the Lok Sabha" rather than "Rules of procedure and conduct of business in Lok Sabha" just like in question no 32, it mentioned Special Address rather than just the word Address
Read bare act: A86 Right of President to address and send message to Houses.
A87 Special Address by the President

NMC was established on the recommendation of a committee formed under NITI Aayog and as per Wikipedia erstwhile PC first time recommend constitution of NMC. Whereas Ranjit Roy chaudhary committee was constituted on clinical drug trail. At least I have not come any article on Google which says it recommend constitution of NMC.

@ranahere999 Thanks,
Although Wikipedia mentioned planning commission recommend creation of NMC, if it is true then it must be before August 2014 as well as before Roy committee submitted it's report but as NITI report is more authenticated than Wiki then it must be true.

@DrS Annexation of awadh was indeed one of the reason for backlash against EIC and the anguish and anger was prevalent among sepoy as these sepoy were recruited from Awadh and it was only after 1857 revolt that large number of recruitment drive commenced in Punjab, NWFP, Gorkha land and martial race theory was coined. Even I doubt correctness of option A rather than D. Bipin Chandra's India struggle for Independence mentioned this.
Please clarify it
