|
Meera Rana answered |
The Local governments are not empowered to legislate on any matter. They are vested with limited powers.
The Constitution of India has vested the ‘residuary powers’ with the Centre. But, the final authority to decide whether a matter falls under the list of residuary powers or not, rests with the Supreme Court because it is the judiciary which decides whether any matter falls under residuary list or not.

Priya jain answered |
C) Horizontal division of power or power shared among different organs of the government.
Explanation: A system of ‘checks and balances’ refers to the distribution of powers among different organs of the government such as the legislature, executive and judiciary. Each organ of the government is given specific powers and functions and is also responsible for checking the actions of the other organs to ensure that no one organ becomes too powerful. This helps to prevent the abuse of power and ensures that the government functions in a democratic manner. Therefore, the system of ‘checks and balances’ is an example of horizontal division of power or power shared among different organs of the government.

Reasons why Kerala has a low Infant Mortality Rate:
1. Adequate provision of basic health and educational facilities: Kerala has a well-developed healthcare system with a strong network of primary healthcare centers, hospitals, and educational institutions. This ensures that pregnant women receive proper prenatal care and children have access to immunizations, healthcare services, and regular check-ups.
2. High literacy rate and awareness: Kerala has one of the highest literacy rates in India, which leads to greater awareness about healthcare practices and the importance of child health. This results in better utilization of healthcare services and timely interventions to prevent infant mortality.
3. Efficient public healthcare system: The state government of Kerala has implemented various healthcare initiatives and programs to address infant mortality. This includes the provision of free healthcare services, maternal and child health programs, and awareness campaigns targeting mothers and caregivers.
4. Skilled healthcare professionals: Kerala has a high number of skilled healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, and midwives. This ensures the availability of trained personnel to handle childbirth and provide necessary care to infants.
5. Improved socio-economic conditions: Kerala has made significant progress in socio-economic development, with relatively low poverty rates and better living conditions. This enables families to afford nutritious food, access clean water and sanitation facilities, and provide a conducive environment for child growth and development.
6. Focus on nutrition: Kerala places importance on providing proper nutrition to pregnant women and children. Government initiatives such as the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) provide supplementary nutrition, immunization, and healthcare services to pregnant women and children under the age of six.
Overall, the combination of adequate healthcare facilities, awareness, skilled healthcare professionals, and focus on nutrition contribute to Kerala's low infant mortality rate.

Read the source given below and answer the questions by choosing the most appropriate option:Countries with higher income are more developed than others with less income. This is based on the understanding that more income means more of all things that human beings need. Whatever people like, and should have, they will be able to get with greater income. So, the greater income itself is considered to be one important goal. Now, what is the income of a country? Intuitively, the income of the country is the income of all the residents of the country. This gives us the total income of the country. However, for comparison between countries, total income is not such a useful measure. Since, countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn. However, for comparison between countries, total income is not such a useful measure. Since, countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn. Are people in one country better off than others in a different country? Hence, we compare the average income which is the total income of the country divided by its total population. The average income is also called per capita income.In World Development Reports, brought out by the World Bank, this criterion is used in classifying countries. Countries with a per capita income of US$ 49,300 per annum and above in 2019, are called high income or rich countries and those with a per capita income of US$ 2500 or less are called lowincome countries. India comes in the category of low middle-income countries because its per capita income in 2019 was just US$ 6700 per annum. The rich countries, excluding countries of the Middle East and certain other small countries, are generally called developed countries.Which of the following is the correct formula to calculate the average income of the country?- a)Total income of the country / Total population
- b)Total income of the country / (Total population)2

Calculation of Average Income:
The correct formula to calculate the average income of a country is:
Total income of the country / Total population
Explanation:
- The average income of a country is determined by dividing the total income of the country by its total population.
- This formula gives us an understanding of what an average person in the country is likely to earn.
- It takes into account the varying populations of different countries, allowing for a fair comparison between them.
- The average income is also known as per capita income.
- It is used as a criterion for classifying countries in reports like the World Development Reports by the World Bank.
- High-income or rich countries have a per capita income of US$ 49,300 per annum and above, while low-income countries have a per capita income of US$ 2500 or less.
- India falls under the category of low middle-income countries with a per capita income of US$ 6700 per annum in 2019.
- Developed countries are generally referred to as rich countries, excluding certain small countries and countries in the Middle East.
In summary, the average income of a country is calculated by dividing the total income of the country by its total population. This measure allows for a fair comparison between countries and helps in classifying them based on their economic development.

Read the source given below and answer the questions by choosing the most appropriate option:Countries with higher income are more developed than others with less income. This is based on the understanding that more income means more of all things that human beings need. Whatever people like, and should have, they will be able to get with greater income. So, the greater income itself is considered to be one important goal. Now, what is the income of a country? Intuitively, the income of the country is the income of all the residents of the country. This gives us the total income of the country. However, for comparison between countries, total income is not such a useful measure. Since, countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn.

Sushil Solanki answered |
Explanation:
The question asks for an awful measure to compare income between countries. Let's analyze the options:
A: Average income
- The average income, also known as per capita income, is a useful measure to compare income between countries. It takes into account the total income of the country divided by its total population, providing an estimate of what an average person is likely to earn. This measure allows for a fair comparison between countries with different populations.
B: Total income
- Comparing total income between countries is not a useful measure because it does not take into account the population size. Countries with larger populations will naturally have higher total incomes, but that does not necessarily mean that individuals in those countries have higher incomes. Therefore, total income alone cannot accurately reflect the income level of individuals within a country.
C: Adjusted income
- Adjusted income is not mentioned in the given source. Therefore, it is not relevant to the question.
D: Basic income
- Basic income is also not mentioned in the given source. Therefore, it is not relevant to the question.
Therefore, the correct answer is B: Total income as it is an awful measure to compare income between countries.

The French Civil Code
The Civil Code of 1804, often referred to as the Napoleonic Code, was a significant legal document that laid the foundation for modern civil law in many jurisdictions worldwide.
Historical Context
- The code was enacted under Napoleon Bonaparte after the French Revolution, aiming to consolidate and reform the diverse laws that existed in France.
- It sought to establish a unified legal framework that emphasized clarity, accessibility, and the protection of individual rights.
Key Features
- Codification of Laws: The code systematically organized laws related to property, contracts, family, and obligations, making them easily understandable.
- Secular Principles: It promoted secularism by separating church and state laws, which was a revolutionary idea at that time.
- Equality Before the Law: The Napoleonic Code established the principle that all citizens are equal in the eyes of the law, abolishing feudal privileges.
Impact on Legal Systems
- The Napoleonic Code influenced many countries around the world, forming the basis of civil law systems in various nations, particularly in Europe and Latin America.
- It introduced principles that are still relevant in contemporary legal frameworks, such as the protection of property rights and the importance of contractual agreements.
Conclusion
In summary, the Civil Code of 1804 is widely known as the Napoleonic Code due to its association with Napoleon Bonaparte and its lasting impact on civil law. Its legacy continues to shape legal systems globally, underscoring its significance in legal history.

In Belgium, the leaders have realized that the unity of the country can only be achieved by respecting the feelings and interests of different communities and regions. This realization has led to mutually acceptable arrangements for power sharing. It means that the leaders in Belgium have understood that in order to maintain unity, they need to ensure that the power is distributed in a way that satisfies the diverse communities and regions within the country. This realization has resulted in arrangements where power is shared in a manner that is acceptable to all parties involved.
Realization in Sri Lanka:
On the other hand, Sri Lanka serves as a contrasting example. The passage states that if a majority community wants to force its dominance over others and refuses to share power, it can undermine the unity of the country. This implies that the leaders in Sri Lanka have not realized the importance of power sharing and have instead chosen to exert their dominance over minority communities. As a result, the unity of the country is undermined.
Conclusion:
From the given passage, we can understand that the realization in Belgium led to mutually acceptable arrangements for power sharing, while in Sri Lanka, the lack of realization resulted in a situation where power is not shared and the unity of the country is undermined. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is option 'C' - Mutual acceptable arrangements.
The question asks us to identify the realization that resulted in arrangements for power sharing in Belgium and Sri Lanka.

India is classified as a lower middle-income country by the World Bank. This means that India's per capita income is between $1,026 and $4,035. This classification is based on the World Bank's Atlas Method, which uses gross national income (GNI) per capita to compare countries. India's GNI per capita in 2017 was $1,876.

Read the source given below and answer the questions by choosing the most appropriate option:Countries with higher income are more developed than others with less income. This is based on the understanding that more income means more of all things that human beings need. Whatever people like, and should have, they will be able to get with greater income. So, the greater income itself is considered to be one important goal. Now, what is the income of a country? Intuitively, the income of the country is the income of all the residents of the country. This gives us the total income of the country. However, for comparison between countries, total income is not such a useful measure. Since, countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn. However, for comparison between countries, total income is not such a useful measure. Since, countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn. Are people in one country better off than others in a different country? Hence, we compare the average income which is the total income of the country divided by its total population. The average income is also called per capita income.In World Development Reports, brought out by the World Bank, this criterion is used in classifying countries. Countries with a per capita income of US$ 49,300 per annum and above in 2019, are called high income or rich countries and those with a per capita income of US$ 2500 or less are called lowincome countries. India comes in the category of low middle-income countries because its per capita income in 2019 was just US$ 6700 per annum. The rich countries, excluding countries of the Middle East and certain other small countries, are generally called developed countries.Who compares the development of the countries on the basis of literacy rate, gross enrolment ratio and health status of their people?- a)UNDP

Social development is also an important factor in the development of a country. This includes access to education, healthcare, and basic needs such as food, water, and shelter. A country that invests in its social development can create a healthier and more educated population, which can lead to a more productive workforce and a stronger economy.
Political stability is crucial for a country's development as it creates an environment that is conducive to investment and economic growth. A stable political environment allows for the implementation of long-term policies and strategies that can drive development and growth.
Technological advancements are also important for a country's development as it allows for the creation of new industries, products, and services. A country that invests in research and development can create a competitive advantage in the global market and attract foreign investment.
Environmental sustainability is also important for a country's development as it ensures that natural resources are preserved for future generations. A country that prioritizes environmental sustainability can create a healthy environment for its citizens, which can lead to a higher quality of life and a stronger economy.
