Common intention implies a pre-arranged plan and acting in concert pursuant to the plan. Common intention comes into being prior to the commission of the act, which need not be a long gap. To bring common intention into effect a pre-concert is not necessarily be proved, but it may well develop on the spot as between a number of persons and could be inferred from facts and circumstances of each case. For example A and B caught hold of C where only B stabbed C with a knife but A is also liable for murder as there was a pre concerted action. In the case Pandurang v. State of Hyderabad, Supreme court emphasized on this point that prior concert need not be something always very much prior to the incident, but could well be something that may develop on the spot, on the spur of the moment.
Common Intention and Similar Intention
Common intention does not mean similar intention of several persons. To constitute common intention it is necessary that the intention of each one of them be known to the rest of them and shared by them. In the case of Dukhmochan Pandey v. State of Bihar, the Supreme Court, held that: “Common intention which developed at the spur of the moment is different from the similar intention actuated a number of person at the same time….the distinction between a common intention and similar intention may be fine, but is nonetheless a real one and if overlooked, may lead to miscarriage of justice….” The mere presence of accused together is not sufficient to hold that they shared the common intention to commit the offence in question. It is necessary that the intention of each one of ‘several persons’ be known to each other for constituting common intention.Q. A gang of six members went to a bank, armed with weapons to commit a heist. While five of the gang members went inside the bank, Mr. A (the sixth member) waited outside the bank to alert them on any threat. During the heist one of the gang members fired a gun at the branch manager, as a result he died. All five escaped but Mr. A was caught and arrested. Now, choose the most appropriate option as per the principle stated in the above passage.... more

Avantika Chakraborty answered |
This is correct. According to the principle stated in the passage, common intention means that the intention of each member of the gang was known to and shared by the other members. In this case, all six members of the gang went to the bank armed with weapons and with the intention of committing a heist. The fact that Mr. A waited outside the bank does not absolve him of liability, as he was still... more

Rhea Reddy answered |
Here, n = 21, a = 64, b = 65
Weight of teacher = n (b - a) + b
= 21 (65 - 64) + 65 = 21 + 65 = 86 kg
Weight of teacher = n (b - a) + b
= 21 (65 - 64) + 65 = 21 + 65 = 86 kg

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question that follows.Early in the careers of most novelists, the critics nag and carp; later, the cold eye of reassessment is cast over their life's work at the peak of a writing career, which is where Doris Lessing now stands, the years of solid achievement command maximum respect. A survey of critical responses to Lessing's books might reveal curious strata of social history. It is hard to remember now that she was once considered very daring and very militant (she insisted that relations between the sexes were difficult and unequal). She has been accused of being a feminist, and then accused by feminists of not being feminist enough. She has been a communist, but then moved on from a belief in simplistic political solutions to interest in deeper psychological change, touching on themes of madness and of mystical and extrasensory states of consciousness.Lessing has written clearly into all her work the conviction that we are moving blindly and inevitably toward global catastrophe. Her message seems to be our complete moral and social bankruptcy, particularly in the relations between men and women. Hers is not an angry feminism, though her men are rather poor creatures compared to her bruised but gritty women. Anger may imply a hope that things could be better if only some sense could be knocked into somebody's head, a hope for a time after the revolution. One does not feel that Lessing sees any hope, only perpetual deadlock.Certainly Lessing has earned the respect accorded to a writer of her stature and productivity. Doggedly she has been writing into her fiction signposts and warnings that we need desperately to be reminded of and writing in a way that has been more persuasive and imaginative than if she had been a pure polemicist. But the critic has the problem of distinguishing between what an author says and the way she says it. The moralist in Lessing, struggling with the very skilled writer, at times has made her writing prolix, clogged, slow - though in her latest novels she has successfully introduced a leavening of fantasy. The fact is that there are writers who in an economical page or two can make us feel our dilemmas more piercingly than she does in a leisurely fictional experience. Missing from her work is that sense of time and space gathered up for a moment between the hands, that sudden shift from understanding to seeing directly, that we expect at rare moments from our storytellers.Q.

Explanation:
Assertion (A): Mental element is an essential element in most of the torts.

The correct answer is option 'D', which states that both (A) and (R) are wrong. Let's break down the explanation:
Rele... more
- In many torts, such as intentional torts like assault, battery, and defamation, the mental state of the defendant is crucial. For example, in cases of assault, the defendant must have intended to cause fear or apprehension in the victim.
- However, in some torts, such as strict liability torts or negligence, the mental element may not be necessary to establish liability. For instance, in cases of strict liability, the focus is on the act itself rather than the defendant's state of mind.
State of Mind in Tort Liability:
- While the mental element is important in certain torts, it is not always a determining factor in establishing liability. In negligence cases, for example, the focus is on the defendant's actions and whether they breached a duty of care owed to the plaintiff, rather than their specific state of mind.
- Therefore, the assertion that mental element is essential in most torts is not entirely accurate, as there are instances where liability can be established without proving the defendant's state of mind.
In conclusion, while mental element plays a significant role in many torts, it is not universally essential in all branches of tort law.

Researchers compared the number of tooth fractures in present-day carnivores with tooth fractures in carnivores that lived 36,000 to 10,000 years ago and that were preserved in the Rancho La Brea tar pits in Los Angeles. The breakage frequencies in the extinct species were strikingly higher than those in the present-day species.In considering possible explanations for this finding, the researchers dismissed demographic bias because older individuals were not overrepresented in the fossil samples. They rejected preservational bias because a total absence of breakage in two extinct species demonstrated that the fractures were not the result of abrasion within the pits. They ruled out local bias because breakage data obtained from other Pleistocene sites were similar to the La Brea data. The explanation they consider most plausible is behavioral differences between extinct and present-day carnivores—in particular, more contact between the teeth of predators and the bones of prey due to more thorough consumption of carcasses by the extinct species. Such thorough carcass consumption implies to the researchers either that prey availability was low, at least seasonally, or that there was intense competition over kills and a high rate of carcass theft due to relatively high predator densities.Q. The passage suggests that if the researchers had not found that two extinct carnivore species were free of tooth breakage, the researchers would have concluded that... more

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.What's life-sustaining becomes life-threatening when it gets contaminated and is transfused into an unsuspecting patient. Safe blood transfusion continues to be a major challenge for the healthcare sector in India. Back in 1996, the Supreme Court had told the Union Government to 'consider the advisability' of enacting a separate legislation for regulating the collection, processing, storage, distribution and transportation of blood and the operation of blood banks in the country. Consequently, the National Blood Transfusion Council was established, followed by the framing of the National Blood Policy.
The petitioners have red-flagged the mushrooming of stand-alone private blood banks which not only provide products of inconsistent quality but also fleece patients with impunity. Several blood banks in Punjab's Doaba region have been under scrutiny in recent years over quality control and pricing issues.
The petition has claimed that the number of registered and licensed blood banks in India is abysmally low — less than three per 10 lakh population. Ideally, every district hospital should have a blood bank. However, merely expanding the network of such storage centres is not enough to improve the state of affairs. It's imperative that each blood bank should have adequate infrastructure and trained manpower. The authorities ought to address the shortage of trained healthcare professionals in the field of transfusion medicine. Strict enforcement of the licensing norms can help to stem the rot. With precious lives at stake, unscrupulous elements cannot be allowed to bleed people dry.Q. Which of the following describes an instance where receiving infected blood through transfusion was potentially fatal?... more

Q. Which of the following describes an instance where receiving infected blood through transfusion was potentially fatal?

Nilesh Patel answered |
The definition of "life-threatening" is best exemplified by option 4. Option 1 only refers to "bacterial infection"; alternatives 2 and 3 give examples of situations in which tainted blood products were not the primary problem, but rather a shortage of blood and medical resources.

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.The National Green Tribunal's order on Friday in the Visakhapatnam gas tragedy found LG Polymers prima facie liable under the 19th century English law principle of "strict liability", which was made redundant in India by the Supreme Court in 1986. Lawyers say the term "absolute liability" should have been used instead.Even though the NGT directed the company to deposit an initial amount of ₹50 crore and formed a fact-finding committee, its use of the term "strict liability" has been questioned. For, under the "strict liability principle", a party is not liable and need not pay compensation if a hazardous substance escapes his premises by accident or by an "act of God" among other circumstances.The Supreme Court, while deciding the Oleum gas leak case of Delhi, found strict liability woefully inadequate to protect citizens' rights in an industrialised economy like India and replaced it with the 'absolute liability principle'.The country was then reeling under the shock of the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy. The court under then Chief Justice PN Bhagwati wanted corporations to be made fully liable for future "undeserved suffering of thousands of innocent citizens".So, under the absolute liability principle, the apex court held that a company in a hazardous industry cannot claim any exemption. It has to mandatorily pay compensation, whether or not the disaster was caused by its negligence. The court said a hazardous enterprise has an "absolute non-delegable duty to the community"."If any harm results on account of such activity, the enterprise must be absolutely liable to compensate for such harm irrespective of the fact that the enterprise had taken all reasonable care and that the harm occurred without any negligence on its part," Justice Bhagwati wrote."The court found that strict liability, evolved in an 1868 English case called Rylands versus Fletcher, provided companies with several exemptions from assuming liability.

Aryan Khanna answered |
This is the correct option for the given question.
The country was shocked by the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy. The court wanted corporations to be made fully liable for future "undeserved suffering of thousands of innocent citizens". Thus, under the absolute liability principle, the apex court held that a company in a hazardous industry cannot claim any exemption. It has to mandatorily pay compensation, whether or not the disaster was caused by its negligence. The court said a hazardous enterprise has an "absolute non-delegable duty to the community". So, in this case Mr. X is liable to pay.

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.In Bhavnagar, a former princely state in Gujarat, I, Mohandas Gandhi, had a chat with Jayshankar Buch. During the chat he advised me to apply to the Junagadh State to give me a scholarship to proceed to London for continuing my studies, I being an inhabitant of Sorath, a district in Saurashtra. I do not perfectly remember the answer I made to him that day. I suppose I felt the impossibility of getting the scholarship. From that time onwards I had in my mind the intention of visiting the land. And I was finding the means to reach that end.On 13th April, 1888, I left Bhavnagar to enjoy the vacation in Rajkot. After 15 days of vacation, my elder brother and I went to see Patwari. On our return my brother said: "We would go to see Mavji Joshi", a family friend and adviser of our family, and so we went. Mavji Joshi asked me as usual how I did, then put some questions about my study in Bhavnagar. I plainly told him that I had hardly any chance of passing my examination first year. I also added that I found the course very difficult. Hearing this, he advised my brother to send me as soon as possible to London for being called to the Bar. He said that the expense would be only Rs. 5,000. "Let him take some urad dal. There he will cook some food for himself and thereby there will be no objection about religion. Don't reveal the matter to anybody. Try to get some scholarship. Apply to Junagadh and Porbandar States. See my son Kevalram, the leading lawyer of Kathiwan, and if you fail in getting the pecuniary help and if you have no money, sell your furniture. But anyhow send Mohandas to London. I think that is the only means to keep the reputation of your deceased father." All of our family members have great faith in what Mavji Joshi says. And of my brother who is naturally very credulous made a promise to Mavji Joshi to send me to London. Now was the time for my exertions.On that very day, my brother, notwithstanding his promise to keep the matter secret, told the thing to Khushalbhai, my cousin and father of Chhaganlal and Maganlal both of whom worked with him in South Africa. He, of course, approved of it in case I could observe my religion. The very day it was told to my cousin Meghjibhai. He quite agreed with the proposal and offered to give me Rs. 5,000. I had some faith in what he said.Q. What could be the reason behind Mavji Joshi asking Gandhiji to take 'urad dal' to London?... more

Anaya Patel answered |
The passage states, 'Let him take some urad dal. There he will cook some food for himself and thereby there will be no objection about religion.' The words 'no objection about religion' indicate that Mavji Joshi wanted Gandhiji to remain true to his religion. So, option 1 is the correct answer.
