Understanding Chanda's Teaching Schedule
To determine the highest number of sessions Chanda could have taken in July, we must analyze the provided information carefully.
Teaching Days in July
- Chanda taught from 1st July to 4th August.
- The relevant teaching days in July are from 1st to 31st.
Sessions Breakdown
- First Five Days (1st - 5th July): Chanda taught the following sections:
- Day 1: A2
- Day 2: A4
- Day 3: A1
- Day 4: A5
- Day 5: A3
- Late July (29th - 31st July): Chanda taught:
- 29th: A3
- 30th: A5
- 31st: A1
Session Frequency and Gaps
- According to the rules:
- Sessions for each section cannot be taken on consecutive days.
- The interval between sessions for any section cannot exceed 6 days.
Maximizing Sessions
- Chanda can teach multiple sections in a single day.
- Given that she taught on the first five days and then again at the end of July, she could potentially fill in other days with additional sessions for the sections in a non-consecutive manner.
Calculating Total Sessions for July
- Between 1st to 5th July, she taught 5 sessions.
- On 29th, 30th, and 31st July, she taught 3 more sessions.
Considering gaps and the ability to teach multiple sections, it can be reasoned that the highest number of sessions—combining the flexibility of teaching multiple sections with the constraints provided—can lead to a maximum of 73 sessions in total if maximized throughout the month.
This figure comes from a combination of strategic session planning, filling gaps, and leveraging the non-consecutive teaching rule effectively.

Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the q...
Through the given information, we get the following table:
For A1, we see that there is a period of 28 days from 4th July to 31st July. If there were x sessions taken by Chanda for section A1, then x must be a factor of 28. From (c), we can say that Chanda can take lecture for A1 every second, fourth or seventh day.
For A2, we see that there is a period of 33 days from 2nd July to 3rd August. If there were x sessions taken by Chanda for section A2, then x must be a factor of 33. From (c), we can say that Chanda can take lecture for A2 every third day.
For A3, we see that there is a period of 24 days from 6th July to 29th July. If there were x sessions taken by Chanda for section A3, then x must be a factor of 24. From (c), we can say that Chanda can take lecture for A3 every second, third, fourth or sixth day.
For A4, we see that there is a period of 30 days from 3rd July to 1st August. If there were x sessions taken by Chanda for section A4, then x must be a factor of 30. From (c), we can say that Chanda can take lecture for A4 every second, third day, fifth or sixth day.
For A5, we see that there is a period of 26 days from 5th July to 30th July. If there were x sessions taken by Chanda for section A5, then x must be a factor of 26. From (c), we can say that Chanda can take lecture for A5 every second day.
To get the highest number of sessions which Chanda can take, the frequency of the session must be highest. Thus, for sections A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5, the sessions must be taken every second, third, second, second and second day, respectively.
We get:
Number of sessions for A1 in July - It will start on 1st with a session on every second day = [(31 - 1)/2] + 1 = 16 sessions
Number of sessions for A2 - It will start on 1st July with a session on every 3rd day = [(31 - 1)/3] +1 = 11
Number of sessions for A3 - It will start on 1st with a session on every second day = [(31 - 1)/2] + 1 = 16 sessions
Number of sessions for A4 - It will start on 2nd with a session on every second day = [(30 - 2)/2] + 1 = 15 sessions
Number of sessions for A5 - It will start on 2nd with a session on every second day = [(30 - 2)/2] + 1 = 15 sessions
Total sessions = 73 sessions

Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:Restricting the Right to Information only to citizens would be contrary to the Constitution of India and Right to Information Act. Right to Information ought to be available to both citizens and non-citizens. RTI Act exempts from disclosure information under Section 8. There is no obligation to disclose such information to any citizen. The categories of information so exempted include:Information, disclosure of which would prejudicially affect the sovereignty and integrity of India, the security, strategic, scientific or economic interests of the State, relation with foreign State or lead to incitement of an offence; Information, publication of which has been expressly forbidden by Court or tribunal; Information, disclosure of which may amount to contempt of court;Information, the disclosure of which would cause a breach of parliamentary privilege.Commericially sensitive information is also barred under RTI for example, Information including trade secrets, commercial confidence or intellectual property, the disclosure of which would jeopardise a third party’s competitive position. Such information can be furnished if the competent authority determines that it is necessary to disclose such information in the public interest Information accessible to a person in his fiduciary relationship. Such information can be furnished if the competent authority determines that it is necessary to disclose such information in the public interest. Information received in confidence from foreign government; Lastly, Information, the disclosure of which would endanger the life or physical safety of any person or identify the source of information or assistance given in confidence for law enforcement or security purposes; the information that would obstruct the process of investigating, apprehending, or prosecuting offenders etc.Q.Under the RTI Act, a non-governmental organization (NGO) requests details about the environmental effect assessment report of a proposed development project on Border Road communities that are nearby. The government agency rejects the request, claiming that the data is exempt because it "would adversely affect the sovereignty and integrity of India" if it were disclosed. Which of the following options best exemplifies the proper legal justification?

Passage: Management is a set of processes that can keep a complicated system of people and technology running smoothly. The most important aspects of management include planning, budgeting, organizing, staffing, controlling, and problem solving. Leadership is a set of processes that creates organizations in the first place or adapts them to significantly changing circumstances. Leadership defines what the future should look like, aligns people with that vision, and inspires them to make it happen despite the obstacles. This distinction is absolutely crucial for our purposes here: Successful transformation is 70 to 90 percent leadership and only 10 to 30 percent management. Yet for historical reasons, many organizations today don‘t have much leadership. And almost everyone thinks about the problems here as one of managing change. For most of this century, as we created thousands and thousands of large organizations for the first time in human history, we didn‘t have enough good managers to keep all those bureaucracies functioning. So many companies and universities developed management programmes, and hundreds and thousands of people were encouraged to learn management on the job. And they did. But, people were taught little about leadership. To some degree, management was emphasized because it‘s easier to teach than leadership. But even more so, management was the main item on the twentieth-century agenda because that‘s what was needed. For every entrepreneur or business builder who was a leader, we needed hundreds of managers to run their ever growing enterprises. Unfortunately for us today, this emphasis on management has often been institutionalized in corporate cultures that discourage employees from learning how to lead. Ironically, past success is usually the key ingredient in producing this outcome. The syndrome, as I have observed it on many occasions, goes like this: success creates some degree of market dominance, which in turn produces much growth. After a while keeping the ever larger organizations under control becomes the primary challenge. So attention turns inward, and managerial competencies are nurtured. With a strong emphasis on management but not on leadership, bureaucracy and an inward focus take over. But with continued success, the result mostly of market dominance, the problem often goes unaddressed and an unhealthy arrogance begins to evolve. All of these characteristics then make any transformation effort much more difficult. Arrogant managers can over-evaluate their current performance and competitive position, listen poorly, and learn slowly. Inwardly focused employees can have difficulty seeing the very forces that present threats and opportunities. Bureaucratic cultures a smother those who want to respond to shifting conditions. And the lack of leadership leaves no fore inside these organizations to break out of the morass.Q.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE in the context of the passage?
