@Thinker sir in ques no 14 ans should be b, nusrat fateh ali khan belongs to qawwal bacchon ka ghrana based in delhi.Here in one interview he himself said so
https://www.outlookindia.com/website/story/1988-interview/282000It was bde fateh ali khan who was from patiali gharana.
There are two kind of sources on internet.
1. Patiala Gharana - wikipedia+sources quoting word-by-word wikipedia (hard to be called authentic), and NDTV article.
2. Qawwal Bachhon ka gharana - most prominent source attached in quoted comment. Read 2-3 interviews more, none quoted both gharana even while talking about gharanas.
Didn't realise that it is such a debatable option while answering.
Can't think what to be believed authentic in this case. An interview is perhaps closest to being called an authentic data.
Kindly enlighten, which one to be deemed conclusive.
Test 27, Question 6, Lehman discontinuity is at the height of 220km, how can it be bellow gutenberg discontinuity as suggested by option a 2>1>4>3. It should either be option D or the question is ambiguous.
Ques 39, how is statement 2 incorrect ( Air ,water carry debris with them), i think answer should be option C 1 and 2
Sir, there is a slight mis-match (1question) in estimated and actual correct questions in my case.
Is it the case that Question 42, has been awarded for B only? Kindly check the program awarding marks please.
Saying because the last time we had double answers, faced the same issue, mailed and it came out to be exactly this.
Please check once if marks have been awarded for double answer as per revised key.
Thanks
Yes Q 25. The correct answer should be B as mentioned in the official answer key of upsc prelims 2015 and not a
It will get updated in the final weekly result.
@Thinker Sir, agreed that UPSC answer key has given B. But, it isn't sacred or infallible.
Giving answer A wasn't a mistake, but a conscious step, I believe.
As discussed in class too, not (or seldom) having ITCZ in South Atlantic and South eastern pacific regions in tropical latitudes, has no relation with cyclone formation.
Indeed, option A i.e low surface temperature in the region will definitely prevent cyclone formation, because warm sea temperature is prerequisite to tropical cyclones. Thus, the answer should be A itself, irrespective of UPSC key.
The same issue was mentioned specifically in post test discussion, and the faculty too, asserted that conceptually, the answer should be A.
As you said that key would be updated accordingly in weekly result,
Kindly enlighten regarding the concept behind option B being the answer.
@Thinker Kindly look into following doubts/queries regardingTEST 38
1. Question No. 23
The Chairperson for CAMPA is Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
The answer should perhaps be "B" both 2&3accordingly.
Click here for official CAMPA Act, 2016 -Kindly refer Page 7, Article 8(4)
2. Question No. 29
The time for notice is 60 days and not 90 days.
The answer should perhaps be"A"1 onlyaccordingly.
Click here for official EPA, 1986 -Kindly refer Page 278, Chapter IV-Para-19(b)
3. Question No. 46
Click here for official Biological Diversity Act,1986 -Kindly refer Page 3, Chapter II, Para-3(2)(b)
As per act"a citizen of India, who is a non-resident as defined in clause (30) of section 2 of the Income-tax Act, 196 1",or NRI in common terms is required to take approval from NBA.
NRI is a miniscule sub-set of "a citizen of india", as mentioned in Question 46(1)
If a subset satisfies a particular condition, its supersetcannot be deduced to necessarily satisfy the same. (although the vice-versa is true)
Hence, the"a citizen of india"if not defined further, probably refers to 99+percent citizens residing in India, who need not take approval of NBA.
The answer should perhaps be "B" both 2&3 accordingly.
Request you to kindly pay heed to the doubts/queries and make changes to key, if required.
