Ok guys , the above 5 mcqs were tricky ...let the attempt count increase, then I will share the explanations from my misc class lectures ..

Good night !!

Good morning guys !!!! Let me explain briefly the "trick " of above 5 mcqs...👇

In this question, option 1 is straight to-the-point.

Option 2 is factual...So, if you know about IEA properly, you will be able to solve this.....because INDIA is not a member of IEA ( bec to become a member of IEA, membership of OECD is required )

Option 3 is tricky....the unique fact is that INDIA is a member of OES ( which itself comes under the framework of IEA )

UPSC DOES THIS !!!!!

This is also a tricky mcq...how to solve it ????.👇👇👇

The word is "Academia Alliance programme".

First of all, it talks about some alliance with academics ( or innovation ). So, statement 2 is good to go with.

Now , if statement 2 is correct, automatically we can guess that statement 1 is correct ( bec it is related somehow )

* The issue comes with statement 3. Mostly you guys will think it's HRD because of the word "academia" in the question.....but that's NOT the case .....Remember this fact --- STARTUPS means ministry of Commerce & Industry . ( Startupindia comes under ministry of commerce & industry )

4. There were pre-independence laws of contempt in India in early high courts and in some courts of princely states

Magadha didn't have monopoly ....upsc plays with "words" make the wrong option believable !!!

Magadha had comparative freedom from Brahmanical orthodoxy .... It's a fact ( it looks wrong , but in reality it's correct )

Ethics committee explanation👆

Amendment to the contempt of court act , 1971 WILL not impact the inherent constitutional powers of SC & HC to punish

Pre independent India also had Contempt laws 👆👆👆
