SECTION 01 English
Direction for Questions 1-5): Each set of questions in this section is based on a single
passage. Please answer each question on the basis of what is stated or implied in the
corresponding passage. In some instances, more than one option may be the answer to the
question; in such a case, please choose the option that most accurately and comprehensively
answers the question.
Aesthetics in this central sense has been said to start in the early eighteenth century, with the
series of articles on "The Pleasures of the Imagination" which the journalist Joseph Addison
wrote in the early issues of the magazine The Spectator in 1712. Before this time, thoughts
by notable figures made some forays into this ground, for instance in the formulation of
general theories of proportion and harmony, detailed most specifically in architecture and
music. But the full development of extended, philosophical reflection on Aesthetics did not
begin to emerge until the widening of leisure activities in the eighteenth century. By far the
most thoroughgoing and influential of the early theorists was Immanuel Kant, towards the
end of the eighteenth century. Therefore, it is important, first of all, to have some sense of
how Kant approached the subject. Kant is sometimes thought of as a formalist in art theory;
that is to say, someone who thinks the content of a work of art is not of aesthetic interest. But
this is only part of the story. Certainly, he was a formalist about the pure enjoyment of
nature, but for Kant most of the arts were impure, because they involved a "concept." Even
the enjoyment of parts of nature was impure, namely when a concept was involved- as when
we admire the perfection of an animal body or a human torso. But our enjoyment of, for
instance, the arbitrary abstract patterns in some foliage, or a color field (as with wild
poppies, or a sunset) was, according to Kant, absent of such concepts; in such cases, the
cognitive powers were in free play. By design, art may sometimes obtain the appearance of
this freedom: it was then "Fine Art"-but for Kant not all art had this quality. In all, Kant's
theory of pure beauty had four aspects: its freedom from concepts, its objectivity, the
disinterest of the spectator, and its obligatoriness. By "concept," Kant meant "end," or
"purpose," that is, what the cognitive powers of human understanding and imagination judge
applies to an object, such as with "it is a pebble," to take an instance. But when no definite
concept is involved, as with the scattered pebbles on a beach, the cognitive powers are held
to be in free play; and it is when this play is harmonious that there is the experience of pure
beauty. There is also objectivity and universality in the judgment then, according to Kant,
since the cognitive powers are common to all who can judge that the individual objects are
pebbles. These powers function alike whether they come to such a definite judgment or are
left suspended in free play, as when appreciating the pattern along the shoreline.

Then, for some reason, something exploded inside me. I started shouting at the top of my
voice and I insulted him and told him not to pray for me. I'd grabbed him by the collar of his
cassock. I was pouring everything out at him from the bottom of my heart in a paroxysm of
joy and anger. He seemed so certain of everything, didn't he? And yet none of his certainties
was worth one hair of a woman's head. He couldn't even be sure he was alive because he was
living like a dead man. I might seem to be empty-handed. But I was sure of myself, sure of
everything, surer than he was, sure of my life and sure of the death that was coming to me.
Yes, that was all I had. But at least it was a truth which I had hold of just as it had hold of
me. I'd been right, I was still right, I was always right. I'd lived in a certain way and I could
just as well have lived in a different way. I'd done this and I hadn't done that. I hadn't done
one thing whereas I had done another. So what? It was as if I'd been waiting all along for this
very moment and for the early dawn when I'd be justified. Nothing, nothing mattered and I
knew very well why. He too knew why. From the depths of my future, throughout the whole
of this absurd life I'd been leading, I'd felt a vague breath drifting towards me across all the
years that were still to come, and on its way this breath had evened out everything that was
then being proposed to me in the equally unread years I was living through. What did other
people's deaths or a mother's love matter to me, what did his God or the lives people chose or
the destinies they selected matter to me, when one and the same destiny was to select me and
thousands of millions of other privileged people, who, like him, called themselves my
brothers. Didn't he understand? Everyone was privileged. There were only privileged people.
The others too would be condemned one day. He too would be condemned. What did it
matter if he was accused of murder and then executed for not crying at his mother's funeral?
Salamano's dog was worth just as much as his wife. The little automatic woman was just as
guilty as the Parisian woman Masson had married or as Marie who wanted me to marry her.
Didn't he understand that he was condemned and that from the depths of my future…I was
choking with all this shouting. But already the chaplain was being wrested from me and the
warders were threatening me. He calmed them though and looked at me for a moment in
silence. His eyes were full of tears. Then he turned away and disappeared.
6) According to the passage, which of the following can be inferred regarding the reason
behind the tears in the chaplain's eyes?
a) He was wounded by the guards who were wrestling him away from his silent
contemplation of the speaker's grief.
b) He was moved by the anguish of the speaker who was almost choking with his emotional
outburst.
c) He was saddened by the sudden realization that he was about to disappear from the
condemned man's life.
d) He was hurt by his failure to rescue the condemned man from a horrible fate.
7) According to the passage, which of the following can surely be inferred about privileged
people?
a) They were soon to be condemned.
b) They were destiny's favorite children.
c) They were ubiquitous.
d) They were ignorant of their destiny
8) According to the passage, which of the following can be inferred from the sentence "I was
pouring everything out at him from the bottom of my heart in a paroxysm of joy and anger"?
a) The speaker was frustrated with the unyielding certainty of the chaplain regarding the fate
of world.
b) The speaker was frustrated by his futile efforts to escape the impending doom.
c) The speaker was agitated as a result of his argument with the chaplain.
d) The speaker was agitated, and it resulted in his personal outburst.
9) All of the following act as synonyms of the word 'paroxysm' EXCEPT:

a) Bout
b) Outburst
c) Ebullition
d) Tranquil
10) Which of the following could be a possible logical corollary to the passage?
a) Once he was gone, I felt calm again. I was exhausted and I threw myself onto my bunk; I
think I must have fallen asleep because I woke up with stars shining on my face.
b) And I too felt ready to live my life again. as if this great outburst of anger had purged all
my ills, killed all my hopes, I looked up at the mass of signs and stars in the night sky and
laid myself open for the first time to the benign indifference of the world.
c) I realized that I'd been happy, and that I was still happy, my last wish was that there
should be a crowd of spectators at my execution and that they should greet me with cries of
hatred.
d) At that point, on the verge of daybreak, there was a scream of sirens; they were
announcing a departure to a world towards which I would now be forever indifferent.
Six thousand miles from the converted skating rink in which a handful of men were about to
decide the fate of the land of which it was the heart, the sacred city of Jerusalem waited
impassively for the newest sign of its destiny.
Whether in the sacrifice of animals on the altar of her ancient Jewish Temple, the sacrifice of
Christ upon a cross, or the constantly renewed sacrifice of men upon her walls, Jerusalem
had lived as no other city in the world, under the curse of bloodshed. Yet her name,
according to legend, came from the ancient Hebrew 'Yerushalayim' meaning 'City of Peace',
and her first settlements had stretched down from the Mount of Olives under a grove of palm
trees whose branches would become a universal symbol of peace. An unending stream of
prophets had proclaimed here the peace of God to man, and David, the Jewish king who had
made the city his capital, had celebrated it with the words 'Pray for the peace of Jerusalem'.
Sacred to three great religions, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, Jerusalem's stones bore the
stigmata of her sanctity and her walls the memory of the crimes committed within them in
the name of religion. David and Pharaoh, Sennacherib and Nebuchadnezzar, Ptolemy and
Herod, Titus and the Crusaders of Godefroy de Bouillon, Tamerlane and the Saracens of
Saladin, all had fought and burned and killed here.
Now, in the midnight blue of this November night, Jerusalem offered a deceptively peaceful
appearance. A ring of lights surrounded the city like satellites: to the north, those of
Ramallah; far to the east (1) the Dead Sea floor, Jericho; to the south, Bethlehem. Closer by,
a second chain of lights leaped from hilltop to hilltop like lighthouses in the night standing
guard over the approaches to Jerusalem. Most important among them were the lights of
Kastel, blinking from the peak from which the village dominated the sole road linking
Jerusalem to the sea, the artery along which virtually every vital supply for the 100,000 Jews
of Jerusalem flowed. Those few miles of twisting asphalt were the hinge upon which Jewish
Jerusalem's existence hung that November evening. And, almost without exception, the
lights along its route belonged to Arab communities.
11) In the last paragraph of the passage, the author calls the peaceful appearance of
Jerusalem deceptive because
a) David and Pharaoh, Sennacherib and Nebuchadnezzar, Ptolemy and Herod, Titus and the
Crusaders of Godefroy de Bouillon, Tamerlance and the Saracens of Saladin, all had fought
and burned and killed in this city.
b) a ring of lights surrounded the city like satellites: to the north, those of Ramallah; far to
the east by the Dead Sea floor, Jericho; to the south, Bethelhem. Closer by, a second chain of
lights leaped from hilltop to hilltop like lighthouses in the night standing guard over the
approaches to Jerusalem and this made the city look peaceful.
c) in the midnight blue of the November night, the gory history of the city was shrouded by
the darkness which gave it a facade of tranquility.
d) the city's stones bore the stigmata of her sanctity and her walls the memory of the crimes
committed within them in the name of religion.
12) According to the passage, which of the following can be inferred about the setting of the
narrative?
a) This passage was written during a tranquil November night.
b) This passage was written during a period of violent bloodshed.
c) This passage was written against the backdrop of a recently concluded war.
d) This passage was written amidst an imminent political decision.
13) According to the passage, the author says "Jerusalem had lived as no other city in the
world" because
a) of her unique nomenclature which was proven correct by her first settlements.
b) of her legacy of being the city where Jesus was crucified and resurrected.
c) of her history of surviving under gruesome conditions.
d) an unending stream of prophets had proclaimed the peace of God to man here.
14) Select the preposition that can be used in place of (1) in the passage.
a) by
b) on
c) at
d) with
15) Which of the following can be identified as an irony about Jerusalem?

a) The proximity of the modern decision-making venue to the ancient city.
b) The meaning of the city's name and the bloodshed witnessed by it.
c) The ring of light surrounding the now dark city.
d) Both (a) and (b)
The Museum of London held a media briefing to detail some of the items it will be including
in its forthcoming exhibition, The Crime Museum Uncovered.
But, I was struck by a problem - displaying such items in a public exhibition. Though the
stress is on 'telling the victims' stories' as well as detailing the crimes - a laudable aim, how
do we avoid glorifying the acts of criminals in the process? Online articles about murders
already tend to stress the 'sensational' elements of offences and there is a danger that this
exhibition may both mythologize historical crime and further illustrate our obsession with
celebrity.
The emphasis is also on 'famous' (or infamous) crimes. Therefore, much is being made of
Jack the Ripper and the Acid Bath murders, whereas the tale of one abused wife in the early
20th century, who attempted to leave her violent husband and was, as a result, killed by him
on her way to work, was almost detailed as an aside in a Q&A, after one of the exhibition's
curators, Jackie Kiely, had been asked about the dangers of glorifying crime. She responded
that the important factor for her was the ability to tell the story of the offence - the
background and the characters involved - rather than simply showing, for example, the knife
used to kill the woman, with no context added.
br> The desire to include such narratives is laudable, as long as it does not glamorize the
offence. Most crimes are rather grubby affairs, the result of complex domestic lives that lack
Champagne or fame. I hope that the life of Annie Parker, a woman who embroidered a pin
cushion using her own hair, is explored sympathetically - she had over 400 arrests for drink-
related offences, and I would like to learn more about her background and why she may have
drunk, rather than simply be encouraged to gasp at the use of human hair in embroidery. But
the dichotomy between providing a nuanced context to some of the more mundane artefacts,
whilst also publicizing the more infamous crimes in order to get visitors into the museum, is
clear.
Now that select artefacts from the Black Museum are being opened up to us, it remains to be
seen whether they will really give the victims of crime a voice, or will they simply
emphasize our obsession with fame, even if the famous are those who commit horrific
offences that scar families for years to come?
16) Why does one of the exhibition's curators, upon being asked about the dangers of
glorifying crime, make a reference to the murder of an abused woman in the early 20th
century ?
a) She believes that the crime was not given the media attention it deserved.
b) She wanted to tell the story of that offense - the background and the characters involved.
c) She wanted to highlight that the intent of the project was to tell the victim's story and
detail the crime
d) The case in question was highly infamous due to its grotesque nature.
17) Why does the author make a reference to Annie Parker?

a) The case of Annie Parker has certain unique elements that deserve attention.
b) The tale of Annie Parker is morbid and intriguing for the general public.
c) To highlight the dilemma faced by the museum while creating a successful enterprise by
retaining the true spirit behind the endeavor.
d) To highlight the fact that museums have to present a range of avenues for the public to
explore in order to cater to all palates.
18) Which of the following can be a good title for the passage?
a) Crime over the years.
b) Ennobling the Abominable - inadvertent but possible.
c) Praise be to the Maleficent!
d) Society and crime - why the macabre interests?
19) What is the tone of the author in the passage?

a) Fearful
b) Curious
c) Cautionary
d) Sincere
20) The author lists all of the following as concerns with respect to the exhibition EXCEPT:
a) It might result in glorification of criminal acts
b) It could create an exaggerated image of the crime
c) It might highlight our obsession with fame
d) It could provide a pedestal to the mundane criminal
More than breathtaking adventure flowed from America's moon conquest. A new era of
exploration was opened. Scientific experiments were unprecedented. Important lessons were
learned for future missions. On top of that, a watching world began to re-evaluate U.S. and
Russian achievements in space. Worldwide, the mission was regarded as a landmark in
man's history, far surpassing all the greatest expeditions of centuries past. Here on earth,
practical evidence was given that the U.S. had emerged, after a decade of self-doubt, as the
most technologically and scientifically advanced of all nations.The U.S. won the race to the
moon and threw the challenge back into the face of the Soviet Union. Russia's failure to land
its unmanned Luna 15 spaceship safely on the moon on July 22 only served to sharpen the
contrast. Then there was this fact, virtually overriding all else in immediate terms: The
United States, at a time of unease and problems, was given a great psychological uplift. The
aim of President Nixon, clearly, was to keep the momentum going in dealing with problems
both at home and abroad. The rest of the world, with Communist China the only big
exception, shared the adventure, viewing it not only as a triumph for the U.S. but as a feat of
all mankind. As a French scholar put it: "Americans reached out and touched the moon. But
it was a victory for the indomitable spirit of every man. "Greatest success by far was the
collection by astronauts of an estimated 60 pounds of rocks and dust from several locations
around their Eagle spacecraft. The material was vacuum-packed in metal containers and
brought back to earth. They hoped to learn from the samples more about the moon's origin
and whether it has - or ever had - any form of life. These are questions men have been asking
for centuries. A moonquake detector, or seismometer, was set up and left on the moon to
measure vibrations in an effort to tell whether the moon is "alive" inside - or simply a cold
and dead body. Also erected and left on the moon was an 18-inch reflector. It was a target
for mapmakers and geologists on earth who started aiming laser beams at it in an effort to get
a "bounce" and thereby measure the distance between earth and the moon with a precision of
six inches, and perhaps also establish whether the earth's continents are slowly drifting apart.
A "solar wind" sampler was set up for more than an hour near the spaceship to collect atomic
particles raining in from the sun in a steady solar wind. This aluminum-foil shade was rolled
up and brought back for study by scientists who wanted to know what kind of material the
sun keeps pouring into space.
21) Which of the following was not brought back on the Earth by the astronauts?
a) Collection of rocks from the moon's surface
b) A boulder from the famous moon crater
c) Atomic particles raining from sun
d) Dust from the moon's surface, vacuum-packed in metal containers
22) Given below are the likely results from the exploration. Select the option that contains
the correct answer.
(1) A possible opportunity to discover whether the continents are moving away from each
other.
(2) Discovery of any trace of life inside the moon's core.
(3) Research on the emission of particles by the sun.
a) (1) and (2)
b) (1) and (3)
c) (2) and (3)
d) (1), (2) and (3)
23) Which of the following CANNOT be inferred to be a fallout of the success of the
voyage?
a) It gave America bragging rights against Russia in the space race.
b) It helped deflect attention from the various political, social and economic problems
plaguing America.
c) It helped unite the citizens of various nations in celebrating the success as mankind's
unique achievement.
d) It helped America gain political leverage over its opponents in global politics.
24) Which of the following CANNOT be assumed from the passage?

a) Russia had sent a spacecraft to moon before the successful voyage by America.
b) Prior to America's moon mission, Russia had overtaken America as the leader in space
exploration.
c) China is a communist nation and it is hostile to America.
d) Success of the American moon voyage was portrayed by some as the success of the
human spirit.
25) What is the meaning of the word 'indomitable', occurring in the passage?
a) Unyielding
b) Impenetrable
c) Unsurpassable
d) Insurmountable
Ben was lying face-down on a small sofa at Macomb Hospital's Behavioral Health Unit. He
was wearing a gray tracksuit, though it was highly unlikely that he was going to be
participating in a marathon anytime soon. His gray hair was strewn this way and that and it
stuck to the pillowcase once he sat down on the stretcher. He had bits of egg and what
looked like syrup - at least, I hoped it was syrup - on his jacket front and crystallized eye-
boogers encrusted his eyelids. It was two fifteen and he'd probably been sleeping all day.
And why not? Nothing else to do. There was Scrabble in the Unit's game-room, but I didn't
observe any potential companions that looked up to a Triple Word Score any more than Ben
did. We were taking Ben to a very upscale facility that specialized in "eldercare" and so this
__________ my interest a little bit. I am a very nosey person and, when I know we're taking
someone to a retirement home that has a yearlong waiting list to get in, I want to know a
little bit more about the individual we're taking there. Maybe he married money, maybe he's
a war profiteer, maybe he's a former member of the Johnson administration; I just want to
know, that's all. Because Ben didn't speak to me, I could snoop through his file. I had no
compunction about doing this. Occasionally there was something in there I actually needed
to know.
There was the usual bullshit: medications, allergies, lab results, safety checks, vital signs,
nursing notes. I usually skip all this if I'm reasonably sure the patient isn't going to croak
during the ride. I flip and flip through the pages until I get to what I'm really after: the
physician's narrative report. Ben's physician's report shocked me so much that I pulled out
my journal and copied it verbatim. Sue me.
26) Which of the following is the most likely assumption behind the last sentence, "Sue me":
a) The delinquent nature of the author
b) The boldness of the author
c) The graphic and disturbing contents of the report
d) The negligence of the institution
27) Which of the following best describes the author's tone?

a) Polemical
b) Flippant
c) Humorous
d) Graphic
28) Which of the following is the most appropriate word to fill the blank in the first sentence
of the second paragraph?
a) Piqued
b) Was Pricked
c) Was Pickled
d) Peaked
29) Which of the following best captures the author's response to the physician's report on
Ben as indicated by the following sentence, "Ben's physician's report shocked me so much
that I pulled out my journal and copied it verbatim."?
a) Morbid curiosity
b) Shock and awe
c) Aghast and outraged
d) Fascinated
30) Which of the following CANNOT be inferred from the passage?

a) The author was helping to transfer Ben from one medical facility to another.
b) The author was a qualified physician who specialised in dealing with elderly patients.
c) Ben was most likely an affluent geriatric with a debilitating sickness.
d) The author does not have any ethical scruples about peeking into a patients' life.
SECTION 02 General Knowledge & Current Affairs

Direction for Questions 31-36): A gas leak, reminiscent of the 1984 Bhopal tragedy, has
claimed at least 12 lives and affected thousands of residents in five villages in
Visakhapatnam in [1]. The source of the leak was a [2] plant owned by South Korean
electronics giant LG, located at RRV Puram near Gopalapatnam, about 15 kms from the
coast city.
[2] is a flammable liquid that is used in the manufacturing of polystyrene plastics, fiberglass,
rubber, and latex. According to Tox Town, a website run by the US National Library of
Medicine, [2] is also found in vehicle exhaust, cigarette smoke, and in natural foods like
fruits and vegetables.
As per the US-based Environment Protection Agency (EPA), short-term exposure to the
substance can result in respiratory problems, irritation in the eyes, irritation in the mucous
membrane, and gastrointestinal issues. And long-term exposure could drastically affect the
central nervous system and lead to other related problems like peripheral neuropathy. It
could also lead to cancer and depression in some cases. However, EPA notes that there is no
sufficiet evidence despite several epidemiology studies indicating there may be an
association between [2] exposure and an increased risk of leukemia and lymphoma.
Symptoms include headache, hearing loss, fatigue, weakness, difficulty in concentrating etc.
Animal studies, according to the EPA, have reported effects on the CNS, liver, kidney, and
eye and nasal irritation from inhalation exposure to [2].

Direction for Questions 37-41): [1] was banned from the Olympics and world championships
in a range of sports for four years after the [2] WADA ruled to punish it for manipulating
laboratory data, a WADA spokesman said.
WADA's executive committee took the decision after it concluded that [1] had tampered
with laboratory data by planting fake evidence and deleting files linked to positive doping
tests that could have helped identify drug cheats.
The WADA committee's decision to punish [1] with a ban was unanimous, the spokesman
said. [1], which has tried to showcase itself as a global sports power, has been embroiled in
doping scandals since a 2015 report commissioned by the WADA found evidence of mass
doping in [1] athletics.
[1]'s doping woes have grown since, with many of its athletes sidelined from the past two
Olympics and the country stripped of its flag altogether at last year's Pyeongchang Winter
Games as punishment for state-sponsored doping cover-ups at the 2014 Sochi Games.
One of the conditions for the reinstatement of RUSADA, which was suspended in 2015 in
the wake of the athletics doping scandal but reinstated last year, had been that [1]provide an
authentic copy of the laboratory data.
The sanctions effectively strip the agency of its accreditation. Sports Minister Pavel
Kolobkov attributed the discrepancies in the laboratory data to technical issues.
The punishment, however, leaves the door open for clean [1]athletes to compete at major
international sporting events without their flag or anthem for four years, as was the case
during the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics.
If RUSADA appeals the sanctions endorsed by WADA's executive committee, the case will
be referred to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), WADA has said.
37) What is the name of the country which has been banned from the Olympics and world
championships in a range of sports for four years by WADA whose name has been redacted
with [1] in the passage above?
a) Reunion
b) Russia
c) Rumania
d) Rwanda
38) What is the full form of WADA redacted with [2] in the passage above and also where is
the headquarters of WADA located?
a) World Anti-Drugs Agency, Tokyo
b) World Anti-Doping Agency, Montreal

c) World Anti- Doping Authority, Paris
d) World Anti-Drugs Authority, Geneva
39) According to the latest report by WADA, which of the followings countries had the
largest number anti-doping rule violations (ADRVs)?
a) Italy
b) Brazil
c) Russia
d) India
40) In May 2020, WADA imposed a four-year ban on whom among following Indian
sportsperson?
a) Jagmal Singh
b) Kiranjeet Kaur
c) Budhia Singh
d) Ram Singh Yadav

a) The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is an international quasi-judicial body
established to settle disputes related to sport through arbitration headquartered in Lausanne.
b) The WADA has suspended the accreditation of India?s National Dope Testing Laboratory
(NDTL) for six months in August 2019.
c) Discus thrower Sandeep Kumari has been imposed with a four-year ban by WADA's
Athletics Integrity Unit for flunking a dope test.
d) Narsingh Yadav was handed a four-year ban by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS)
on a doping charge just 12 hour before his scheduled bout at the London Olympics.
Direction for Questions 42-46): The [1] extradition case has generated a lot of buzz in the
country as he has turned from the “king of good times” to the poster boy of the recent breed
of fugitive business tycoons after he fled the country in March 2016. The Government of
India made a formal extradition request to Britain in February 2017. The UK High Court, by
its judgement on April 20, dismissed the appeal filed by [1] against the judgement of
December 10, 2018 judgement of Westminster Court paving the way for him to be extradited
to India. After the dismissal of the appeal, [1] filed an application seeking permission to
approach the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, which was also rejected by the UK
High Court on May 14, thus setting a 28-day deadline for him to be extradited. That deadline
expires on June 12.
[1]?s appeal before the UK High Court was admitted only on the ground of Section 84(1) of
the UK Extradition Act, 2003, a case where a person has not been convicted. Essentially, the
UK High Court had to decide whether a ?prima facie? case has been made so as to require
the person to face trial. The grounds of [1]?s appeal ? that the case against him was
politically motivated and of poor prison conditions in India -- were rejected.
Learning lessons from many alleged offenders going absconding, Parliament enacted the
Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, 2018, whereby a person can be declared a fugitive
economic offender in case of an offence involving [2] or more and the proceeds of crime in
India as well as abroad can be attached. In the case of [1] as well, the UK High Court had
passed an order allowing seizure of his properties in the UK in July 2018. The progressive
manner in which the UK courts have dealt with the [1] extradition case, coupled with the
stringent provisions of the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, 2018, will make it really
difficult for other economic offenders who chose to flee to the UK.
It is likely that [1] has applied for asylum in the UK to earn a temporary reprieve. But he is
unlikely to succeed, but as per [3] of the Extradition Act, 2003, a person cannot be extradited
unless his asylum request is finally determined.

Government under the powers conferred to it by Sections 69A(2), 79(2)(c) and 87 of the
Information Technology Act, with thorough coordination with the Ministry of Electronics
and Information Technology and the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. The
formulation of these Rules is in response to the growing criticism against the government,
while it recognizes the right to criticize and disagree as an essential element of democracy. It
aims to provide a robust complaint mechanism for social media and OTT platform users to
address their grievances, a mechanism earlier inexistent.
The proposed framework has been quoted to be progressive, liberal and contemporaneous, as
it lays a special emphasis on the protection of women against the progression of sexual
offences on social media. It emphasizes on the need of social media intermediaries and
online content providers, whether for entertainment or informative purposes, to strictly
comply with the Constitution and domestic laws of India. It extends its approach to instill a
sense of accountability against misuse and abuse by social media users and is the first of its
kind to bring social media use under the regulatory framework of the Information
Technology Act.
Rule 4 enlists certain due diligence obligations of an intermediary, which include the duty to
publish their rules and regulations, privacy policies and user agreements for access, either on
its website and/or application, to allow its users to access the same. The material so
published must crystalize the user's responsibility not to "host, display, upload, modify,
publish, transmit, store, update or share" any form of information which - Belongs to another
person; is defamatory, obscene, pornographic, pedophilic, invasive of one's privacy; is

Hours after yoga guru Baba Ramdev's Patanjali Ayurved launched an Ayurvedic medicine
claiming to be a cure for Covid-19, the AYUSH Ministry set into action, asking it to stop
advertising such claims.In addition, it also pointed out that such advertisements of Ayurvedic
medicines are regulated by the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements)
Act, 1954 or the 'DMR' Act.
The DMR Act seeks to prohibit advertisements for "remedies alleged to possess magic
qualities".The Act specifically bars advertisements that claim to cause a miscarriage in
women or prevent conception of pregnancy or improve "capacity of human beings for sexual
pleasure".It also bars advertisements or usage of drugs, which claim to diagnose or cure any
of the 54 diseases or conditions of body mentioned in the schedule of the Act. These include
sexual impotency, plague, cancer, epilepsy, fairness of skin, height of kids, among others.
While it defines drugs as any medicines or substances intended for treatment of any disease,
it defines a "magic remedy" as a "talisman, mantra, kavacha, and any other charm of any
kind, which is alleged to possess miraculous powers" for treating any disease.
According to the Drugs and Magic Remedies (Objectionable Advertisements) Rules 1955,
framed under the Act, anybody authorised by the state government can pull up the
manufacturer, packer, distributor or seller of the drug, which he thinks is being advertised in
violation of the law.They can ask the drug manufacturer, etc. to furnish information
"regarding the composition of the drug or the ingredients thereof or any other information in
regard to that drug as he deems necessary for holding the scrutiny of the advertisement and
where any such order is made".
Section 7 of the Act says anybody who violates the law shall be punished with a maximum
of 6 months imprisonment along with fine. This is, however, for the first conviction.In case
of a subsequent conviction, the perpetrator may be jailed for up to 1 year along with a fine.
In case a company violates the provisions of the Act, every person who was in-charge of the
company when the offence was committed shall be deemed to be guilty. However, he could
absolve himself if he shows that the offence was committed without his knowledge or if he
can prove that he exercised all due diligence to prevent the offence from being committed.

Eight years after Indian police arrested two Italian marines, a five-member international
tribunal rejected India's contention that the soldiers, who were accused of killing Indian
fishermen, could be tried in Indian courts and ordered India to cease all criminal proceedings
against them.On Thursday, the Hague-based Permanent Court of Arbitration published an
extract of the final award of the ad-hoc tribunal constituted to settle disputes related to the
United Nations Convention for the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).<br
On February 15, 2012, Indian police had contended that Massimiliano Latorre and Salvatore
Girone, two Italian marines posted on oil tanker Enrica Lexie, shot at two Indian fishermen
on an Indian vessel, apparently mistaking them for pirates operating near the Kerala Coast.
Under UNCLOS, the concept of 'Hot Pursuit' states that a state may pursue a vessel when the
competent authorities of that state have good reason to believe that the vessel has violated
the laws and regulation of that state. There are certain conditionalities. It can be undertaken
only when the violating vessel is within the territorial waters (an area upto 12 nautical miles
from the shore) of the pursuing state. Hot pursuit can be by ship or aircraft. A visual or
auditory signal to the violating vessel must be given before commencing the pursuit. It can
be exercised only by war ships, military aircraft and not by merchant ships or commercial
aircrafts. In case of unjustified use of hot pursuit, damages must be paid.

It said while Gilead Sciences' anti-viral drug Remdesivir has shown efficacy in treating
coronavirus patients, media reports indicated that the US has bought the entire stock of the
drug from the company for the next three months.It also said that the price of Remdesivir in
the United States is USD 3,000 or Rs 2.25 lakh for a five-day course. The cost of
manufacturing Remdesivir for a full course as worked out by experts is less than USD 10 or
Rs 750 in the US, and about Rs 100 in India. Gilead, by virtue of its patent monopoly, is
holding the world to ransom by asking a price that is hundreds of times its cost.
Under Clause 92(1) of India's Patents Act, India has the right to issue a compulsory license
to manufacture the drug in India.Under Clause 92A of the Patents Act, compulsory license
can even be issued for export to countries that may require the drug and not have the
capability to manufacture it. Both section 92(1) and 92A are subject to Section 84. Under
Section 84, any interested person can apply for compulsory licenses from three years from
the date of grant of the patent after the failure of efforts to obtain a voluntary license from
the patent holder. This option is not available for Remdesivir because the date of the patent
grant is in 2020. Any application for a compulsory license before three years from the date of
grant is not possible under Section 84.
Another option, which is an exception to Section 84 requisites, is under Section 92 (3) - in

case of a national emergency or circumstances of extreme urgency, public noncommercial
use arises during a public health emergency or during a public health crisis, like an epidemic.
At this time, the controller of patents has the discretion to grant a compulsory license even
without hearing the patent holder or waiting for 3-year lock in period.

Under International law, States are bound to fulfill in good faith the obligations assumed by
them under International agreements or treaties. Similarly, only party states to a treaty are
bound under it. Moreover, other States cannot object to a treaty not concerning them. This
concept is similar to privity of contract. If, however, material circumstances upon which a
treaty is based are changed, it is a ground for avoidance or termination of the treaty.

International Law. A peremptory norm is a norm accepted and recognized by the
international community of states on the whole, as a norm from which no derogation is
permitted. No use of force is one such peremptory norm.

A person can claim unsoundness of mind as a defence against criminal prosecution. This is
known as the defence of insanity. The test to determine insanity is the McNaughton Rule.
McNaughton Rule states that every man is presumed sane unless contrary is proved. To
successfully claim insanity, the accused must have mental defect at the time of committing
the wrongful act, to not know the nature and quality of the act he is doing or in other words,
his mental faculty to distinguish right and wrong is not present.
A person can claim intoxication as a defence against criminal prosecution. However, not
every case of intoxication will fall within this defence. To successfully claim this defence, it
is mandatory that such intoxication was without knowledge or against the will of the
accused. Also, the accused must be so much intoxicated so as to be incapable of
understanding the nature and consequences of his act.

SECTION 04 Logical Reasoning

Direction for Questions 106-110): Each set of questions in this section is based on the
reasoning and arguments set out in the preceding passage. Please answer each question on
the basis of what is stated or implied in the corresponding passage. Do not rely on any
information or facts other than the ones supplied to you. In some instances, more than one
option may be the answer to the question; in such a case, please choose the option that most
accurately and comprehensively answers the question.
A game of strategy, as currently conceived in game theory, is a situation in which two or

more "players" make choices among available alternatives (moves). Thus the "interests" of
the players are generally in conflict. Whether these interests are diametrically opposed or
only partially opposed depends on the type of game.
Psychologically, most interesting situations arise when the interests of the players are partly
coincident and partly opposed, because then one can postulate not only a conflict among the
players but also inner conflicts within the players. Each is torn between a tendency to
cooperate, so as to promote the common interests, and a tendency to compete, so as to
enhance his own individual interests.
Internal conflicts are always psychologically interesting. What we vaguely call "interesting"
psychology is in very great measure the psychology of inner conflict. Inner conflict is also
held to be an important component of serious literature as distinguished from less serious
genres. The classical tragedy, as well as the serious novel reveals the inner conflict of central
figures.
The effort of solving the problem is in itself not a conflict if the adversary (the unknown
criminal) remains passive, like Nature, whose secrets the scientist supposedly unravels by
deduction. If the adversary actively puts obstacles in the detective's path toward the solution,
there is genuine conflict. But the conflict is psychologically interesting only to the extent that
it contains irrational components such as a tactical error on the criminal's part or the
detective's insight into some psychological quirk of the criminal or something of this sort.
Chess may be psychologically interesting but only to the extent that it is played not quite
rationally. Played completely rationally, chess would not be different from Tic-tac-toe.

War, natural disasters and climate change are destroying some of the world's most precious
cultural sites. Google is trying to help preserve these archaeological wonders by allowing
users access to 3D images of these treasures through its site. These images are part of a
collaboration with CyArk, a nonprofit that creates the 3D scanning of historic sites. Google
says it doesn't make money off this website, but it fits in with Google's mission to make the
world's information available and useful.
Critics say the collaboration could be an attempt by a large corporation to wrap itself in the
sheen of culture. Ethan Watrall, an archaeologist, says he's not comfortable with the
arrangement between CyArk and Google. Watrall says this project is just a way for Google
to promote Google. "They want to make this material accessible so people will browse it and
be filled with wonder by it," he says. "But at its core, it's all about advertisements and
driving traffic," Watrall says these images belong on the site of a museum or educational
institution, where there are serious scholarships and a very different mission.
There's another issue - CyArk owns the copyrights of the scans -that means the countries
need CyArk's permission to use these images for commercial purposes. Erin Thompson, a
professor of art crime, says it's the latest example of a Western nation appropriating a foreign
culture, a centuries-long battle. CyArk says it copyrights the scans so no one can use them in
an inappropriate way. The company says it works closely with authorities during the process,
even training local people to help. But critics like Thompson are not persuaded. She would
prefer the scans to be owned by the countries and people where these sites are located.

arguments?
a) Only museum websites receive CyArk's scanned photographs of archaeological sites.
b) Advertisements on Google's website hosting CyArk's scanned images have been removed.
c) The scanning of archaeological sites in other countries is forbidden by CyArk.
d) The copyright on scanned photographs of archaeological sites does not belong to CyArk.
114) Based on his viewpoints noted in the text, one might best classify Dr. Watrall as also
being?
a) opposed to the use of digital technologies at a developing country's archaeological and
cultural sites.
b) concerned about laypeople's access to expert photographs of archaeological and cultural
sites.
c) unconvinced about the partnership between a non-profit and a commercial tech platform
for distributing archaeological images.
d) uneasy about the commercial use of archaeological photographs by companies including
Google and CyArk.

c) The specifics of digitization have not been shared with the host countries by CyArk and
Google.

countries plunged to their nadir after August 2019, when the Indian government removed the
special status of Jammu and Kashmir and locked down the former state. Since then there
have been close to 7,000 incidents of crossfire across the Line of Control, accompanied by
rising invective by the two countries' leaders. Most Pakistan and India analysts, therefore,
see the ceasefire as a purely tactical move serving the short-term interests of both countries
(calming India's western borders while negotiations with China continue; calming Pakistan's
eastern border while Afghan negotiations gather momentum).
Even as a purely tactical move, this small step to de-escalate must be welcomed, especially if
it is seen by each country as serving its own interests. In our view, moreover, there is no such
thing as a purely tactical move in peacemaking. More often than not, what appears to be a
one-step tactical move expands to a series of small steps, which may together set the stage
for bolder measures towards a lasting peace.

After Hiroshima, some suggested that any aliens bright enough to colonize spaceships would
be bright enough to make thermonuclear bombs and would use them on each other sooner or
later. I suggest a different, even darker solution to the Paradox. Basically, I think the aliens
forget to send radio signals or colonize space because they're too busy with runaway
consumerism and virtual-reality narcissism. The fundamental problem is that an evolved
mind must pay attention to indirect cues of biological fitness, rather than tracking fitness
itself. This was a key insight of evolutionary psychology in the early 1990s; although
evolution favours brains that tend to maximize fitness (as measured by numbers of great-
grandkids), no brain has capacity enough to do so under every possible circumstance.
Technology is fairly good at controlling external reality to promote real biological fitness,
but it's even better at delivering fake fitness - subjective cues of survival and reproduction
without the real-world effects. Fitnessfaking technology tends to evolve much faster than our
psychological resistance to it. With the invention of Xbox 360, people would rather play a
high-resolution virtual ape in Peter Jackson's King Kong than be a perfect-resolution real
human. Teens today must find their way through a carnival of addictively fitness-faking
entertainment products. The traditional staples of physical, mental and social development -
athletics, homework, dating - are neglected. Around 1900, most inventions concerned
physical reality and in 2005 focus shifted to virtual entertainment. Freud's pleasure principle
triumphs over the reality principle. Most bright alien species probably go extinct gradually,
allocating more time and resources to their pleasures, and less to their children. Heritable
variation in personality might allow some lineages to resist the Great Temptation and last
longer.

most?

in trouble-making behaviors drives the creation of fitness-faking technology.

An elected State government can certainly, during its five-year tenure, attempt to provide
high quality local infrastructure to attract new businesses. State governments also have the
ability to provide land at affordable prices or for free to attract investments. However, the
availability of skilled local labour is a function of many decades of social progress of the
State and cannot be retooled immediately. After the introduction of the Goods and Services
Tax (GST), State governments in India have lost their fiscal autonomy and have no powers
to provide any tax concessions to businesses. So, while State governments have the ability to
use land and local infrastructure as tools to attract businesses, they do not have control over
immediate availability of skilled manpower or to use taxes as a tool to lure. In America,
States compete against each other vigorously using tax concessions and land offers to bring
new jobs to their States.
But, beyond all these, the most critical factor in the choice of a location for a large business
is what economists term as the 'agglomeration effect' - the ecosystem of supply chain, talent,
good living conditions and so on. A State with an already well-established network of
suppliers, people, schools, etc. is at a greater advantage to attract even more businesses than
the States that are left behind. Put simply, if Amazon's competitor Walmart is already
established in Karnataka, then there is a greater incentive for Amazon to also locate itself in
Karnataka to take advantage of the established ecosystem. This leads to a cycle of the more
prosperous States growing even faster at the expense of the lagging States.

133) But Anderson said that more vegetation may not actually increase warming and flood
risks in the Himalayas, with the only study in the region, in Tibet, finding that the water in
the plants that is evaporated through their leaf surface actually exerted a cooling influence.
"We really don't know much about this area and we need to direct research attention towards
it because it's a major part of the water supply story in the Himalayas," she added. The study,
published in Global Change Biology, was made possible by Google's new Earth Engine,
which provides researchers with a freely accessible collection of government agency satellite
data in the cloud. Previously, researchers would have had to build a super-computer to sift
through the enormous quantities of satellite data.

a) "We will also report back on our own progress as an organization, as we take important
steps to address our impact on the environment", ascertained Anderson.
b) "We have made several important changes to our style guide to ensure the language we
use accurately reflects the environmental catastrophe.", claimed Anderson.
c) "It has really revolutionized this kind of work and enables large-scale, long time-series
investigations like this to happen," said Anderson.
d) "We will keep reporting on the efforts of individuals and communities around the world
who are fearlessly taking a stand for future generations and the preservation of human life on
earth." said Anderson.
