[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021
Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.

I rarely find someone saying Laxmikant is not an authentic source. Good that you point out. Some take it as gospel of truth. It's a book ffs. There are many mistakes in it.
Laxmikant is a piece of shit book is what it is. Reading it gives you a half cooked understanding. The more one reads it, the more he argues that secularism was a concept alien to the constitution and brought in by the 42nd amendment.
@Rambo93 Haha!! Since he/she wanted an authentic source then what better than the Act itself. Otherwise, it is given in Laxmikant( but then it is not an authentic source).

Also why it doesnt particularly work in CSP all that much these days.
ArchAngel96,Sherkhan1428reminds me of foucault =there are no truth, only discourses....lakshmikant ka discourse is better than anybody else's.
Laxmikant doesn't have a discourse. It is a dumbed down version of facts about the constitution bereft of its spirit or substance.
Hello, good people of Forum!
Can someone please inform me if we are allowed to scribble on the question paper, eg cut options etc. and if rough sheet is given for the CSAT paper?
Thanks!
@kabirpanthi Technically, you're not allowed to mark your answers or write anythingon the Test Booklet (QP), but everyone does it, so don't worry about it.
Sheets for rough work are available at the end of the Test Booklet.

"secularism was a concept alien to the constitution and brought in by the 42nd amendment."

Quick questions, What is one justification for separation or religion and state?

From what I remember, yes you can do that, but sometimes examiners trouble you and think you are cheating so you are on your own. Do not mistakenly write anything on the OMR. That disqualifies your sheet.
CSAT yes, you get pages at the back. Not all centers have provision of extra sheets.
Dora-the_Explorer,
Little off topic, any idea when classes might start?
pajhiram knows...... visit their site. see how it feels when you lose a session of offline admission. that filthy classic expression on the face. it gives me pleasure. Dont know why!! It felt so good. They have made all arrangements for the social distancing and moving logistics so that can start a fresh batch. I was like Social distancing in the classroom. :D :D :D
Still i am confident that janta will fill the batch.

It is more due to experiences of the freedom struggle that the framers of the Constitution opted for Principled distance instead of strict separation between Religion and Polity. Be it Khilafat movement or Great Calcutta killings, intermixing the two or strict separation between the two has not produced good results.

I too was going to quote Marx, however, I guess it's more relevant with his idea of economic determinism ..every action has an economic justification behind it..

Of course they have. I've had a number of people who are history graduates tell me Spectrum is a terrible book for understanding Indian history. And they are right. I know that now because my reading is wider. Yet, I read that alone for my first attempt. Because it works. Doesn't take away from the fact that it is a terrible book if you want to truly understand Indian history. I never said people shouldn't read Laxmikant, I just said it is a bad book if you want to have even a rudimentary understanding of the true nature or growth of our constitution. It's the one thing all of us have in common after all, isn't it, the good people of India?

Multiple lessons from history, aren't there!
Religion sanctions rule by a divine order, which no sovereign can circumscribe. His power was unlimited, subject to no restraints whatsoever. Who can proclaim to be more powerful than the Lord himself after all, so as to put fetters on His authority! If the Lord wouldn't rule Himself, he would give his sanction to a tyrannical ruler. A King. The one who can do no wrong.
But in modern society, whose God gave this sanction? We have so many Gods, each supreme in his own right and to the exclusion of all others. Besides, even assuming the Gods are the same, what if the God's sovereign representative is wrong by my own account of what my God would want? Further, what if my God's sovereign representative starts acting in a manner that is completely random, in accordance with "his plan", with absolutely no system of transparency, accountability or predictability?
Hence, we decided that the God may or may not have created the Earth alright, but here, the State was a creation of the People. Here, the sovereignty is limited, not by rule of God or rule of God's representative, but by rule of law. The sovereign was the people. A limited Government free from the clutches of a religious order meant greater stability, greater predictability and of course, greater accountability. Something off about making God any of accountable to the puny human, but people could be made accountable. And we made peace with the fact that our Gods would be okay with that.
Moral of the story: @Devanapiyam was a scoundrel. :P
