Kerala SET Paper 1 Mock Test - 8 - Question 21

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the given question.
The decisive shift in British Policy really came about under mass pressure in the autumn and winter of 1945 to 46 – the months which Perderel Moon while editing Wavell’s Journal has perceptively described as ‘The Edge of a Volcano’. Very foolishly, the British initially decided to hold public trials of several hundreds of the 20,000 I.N.A. prisoners (as well as dismissing from service and detaining without trial no less than 7,000). They compounded the folly by holding the first trial in the Red Fort, Delhi in November 1945, and putting on the dock together a Hindu, a Muslim and a Sikh (P.K. Sehgal, Shah Nawaz, Gurbaksh Singh Dhillon). Bhulabhai Desai, Tejbahadur Sapru and Nehru appeared for the defence (the latter putting on his barrister’s gown after 25 years), and the Muslim League also joined the countrywide protest. On 20 November, an Intelligence Bureau note admitted that “there has seldom been a matter which has attracted so much Indian public interest and, it is safe to say, sympathy... this particular brand of sympathy cuts across communal barriers." A journalist (B. Shiva Rao) visiting the Red Fort prisoners on the same day reported that "There is not the slightest feeling among them of Hindu and Muslim. A majority of the men now awaiting trial in the Red Fort is Muslim. Some of these men are bitter that Mr Jinnah is keeping alive a controversy about Pakistan." The British became extremely nervous about the I.N.A. spirit spreading to the Indian Army and, in January, the Punjab Governor reported that a Lahore reception for released I.N.A. prisoners had been attended by Indian soldiers in uniform.

Q. The sympathy of Indian soldiers in uniform with the released I.N.A. prisoners at Lahore indicates

Kerala SET Paper 1 Mock Test - 8 - Question 27

In which of these places, the seats are reserved for women in India?

Detailed Solution for Kerala SET Paper 1 Mock Test - 8 - Question 27
Seats reserved for women in India:
In India, there are certain places where seats are reserved specifically for women. These include:
Panchayats:
- In Panchayats, which are local self-governance bodies at the village level, seats are reserved for women. This reservation is aimed at promoting women's participation in decision-making processes at the grassroots level.
It is important to note that reservation for women in Panchayats is not only a policy but also a constitutional provision. The 73rd Amendment to the Indian Constitution mandates that at least one-third of the total seats in Panchayats should be reserved for women.
This reservation has helped in empowering women and giving them a platform to voice their opinions and contribute to the development of their communities.
Lok Sabha:
- In the Lok Sabha, which is the lower house of the Indian Parliament, there is no specific reservation for women. However, there have been discussions and demands for reservation of seats for women in the Lok Sabha to ensure better representation.
State Assemblies:
- Similar to the Lok Sabha, there is no specific reservation for women in the State Assemblies, which are the legislative bodies at the state level. However, some states have introduced reservations for women in their State Assemblies through state-specific legislation.
Government jobs:
- While there are no seat reservations for women in government jobs, the government of India has implemented various policies to promote gender equality and provide equal opportunities for women in employment. These include reservation in certain categories and relaxation in eligibility criteria for women.
In conclusion, the seats reserved for women in India are primarily in Panchayats, where at least one-third of the seats are reserved for women. Other places such as the Lok Sabha, State Assemblies, and government jobs do not have specific seat reservations for women, but efforts are being made to promote gender equality and representation.

  • The input devices use buffers to store the information received and once the buffer has some data it sends it to the C.P.U.

So, this statement is true.
3. A client-server network does not store files locally on a computer on a network. Instead, they are stored on a 'server'.

  • A client-server network is a medium through that client's access resources and services from a central laptop, via either a Local area network (LAN) or a wide-area network (WAN), like the web. a novel server known as a daemon could also be employed for the only real purpose of awaiting client requests, at which point the network association is initiated till the consumer request has been fulfilled.
