@mounikamouni24_h944 The statement says “Nizamat of Arcot emerged out of Hyderabad state”. The Nizamat of arcot was emerged from Mughal kingdom when Aurangzeb established in 1690 and appointed the Nizamat.

@kohliwag I also think same

The Nawabs of the Carnatic are Rowthers.[3] The Nawab of the Carnatic (Arcot) was established by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, who in 1692 appointed Zulfikhar Ali Khan as the first Nawab of the Carnatic, with his seat at Arcot as a reward for his victory over the Marathas led by Rajaram

Option A verbatim lifted from here. Don't see any reason for it to be wrong.


you cant be sure about it cause of similar wording.state could be non sovereign too and thats why i think a is wrong.,I could be wrong too.I just believe it is b 

Pol science me theory of state me pdate hai State = Soveregnty+people+territory+Govt. Option A satisfies this criteria.I marked B despite knowing this fml


The funny thing is Shubra ma'am ke notes me verbatim likha h Ar-14 is not rule of law, it is just equality before law. Still in her prelims discussion video, she says that the given statement is a violation of rule of law, so the answer will be article 14. TBH I was expecting her to give a different answer but it seems answer key bnate time sab nayi theories bnane shuru kr dete hai :p 

P.S.- I marked Ar 32 as the answer.

I have also marked Art 32 as answer. I think that only will be answer.


I too marked Art 32. When a friend of mine said that this question was the easiest one in exam and answer is Article 14, i decided to keep my answer to myself :D

I am not really into answer discussion but this got me excited. I wanted to mark article 14, but messy me marked article 32. I just hope it is right! I was so sad that I marked this 'simple question' wrong.

@mounikamouni24_h944 So it is difficult to say....  that "The Nizamat of Arcot emerged out of Hyderabad State" --- since it is existing even before Hyderabad (1724)

Rest UPSC will decide...
