16. Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the question given
beside.
Rulers everywhere treat criticism as attempts to excite disaffection and disloyalty. That is perhaps the only
reason that Section 124-A of the Indian Penal Code, enacted under colonial rule, remains on the statute book.
As per this section, anyone who, through words or visual representation or otherwise, tries to excite
disaffection towards the government is deemed a criminal. There have been repeated instances of its misuse.
Regimes at the Centre and the States have often been shown in poor light after they invoked the section
against activists, detractors, writers and even cartoonists. The Law Commission, for the third time in five
decades, is now in the process of revisiting the section. Its consultation paper calls for a thorough
reconsideration and presents the various issues related to it before the public for a national debate.
Which of the following strengthens the argument for the abolishing of Section 124A?
I. This section was used to suppress the freedom struggle.

II. The right to free speech and expression is an essential ingredient of democracy.

34. Which of the following is an assumption made by the author in the passage?
The announcement by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Kozhikode that India will now ratify
the Paris Agreement on climate change as early as October 2 must surely occasion widespread
surprise in India’s polity. The haste is particularly strange considering that the European Union
and a number of other developed nations have not yet ratified the agreement. Little has been
done to inform Parliament, civil society or the people at large what these detailed
considerations were that the government considered so relevant. The suggestions made to an
international audience that fulfilling India’s commitments based on its current Intended
Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) would require matching domestic legislation or
changes in regulatory mechanisms clearly demand that the government at the Centre make
clear domestically the implications for development that these commitments would have.
A. We were not ready yet in terms of domestic actions that are required for us to ratify or at least commit to
ratify within 2016.
B. Developmental needs and people’s aspirations are the sole concern or prerogative of the Central
government.

safeguarded emissions linked to its current energy and industrial infrastructure.

Reference of the Sabarimala entry row to a five-member Constitution Bench of the Supreme
Court is in itself a radical judicial move. Preventing women’s entry to the Sabarimala temple
with an irrational and obsolete notion of “purity” clearly offends the equality clauses in the
Constitution. It curtails her religious freedom assured by Article 25(1). Prohibition of
women’s entry to the shrine solely on the basis of womanhood and the biological features
associated with womanhood is derogatory to women, which Article 51A(e) aims to
renounce.
A. The entry prohibition takes away the woman’s right against discrimination guaranteed under Article 15 (1)
of the Constitution.
B. The classification based on age is, in essence, an act of discrimination based on sex.
C. The practice has been going on for thousands of years and is an accepted part of the social fabric- especially
by women themselves.
D. B.R. Ambedkar famously said that public temples, like public roads and schools, are places meant for public
access and so the question of entry is, essentially, a question of equality.
E. The managerial rights of religious authorities under Article 26 (b) of the Constitution cannot override the
individual woman’s religious freedom guaranteed under Article 25 (1).

From statement II and III:
Combining statement II and III, we get:
Following the final seating arrangement, we can say that L is sitting second to right of N.
Hence, the statement II and III are sufficient to answer the question.
From statement I and III:
We don’t get definite arrangement, statement I and III are not sufficient to answer the question.
References:
E is taller than both C and A.
E > C/A > A/C
D is shorter than G.
G>D
C is taller than F.
C>F
Two persons have heights between the heights of A and D.
A/D > _ >_ D/A
No person has height between the heights of F and G
G/F > G/F
Neither C nor A is second shortest person.
Note: In this reference, as it is given that neither C nor A is second shortest person, so C and A will be
placing at any place shorter than E except second place.
Now combining all the reference, we get:
E > B > C > A > G/F > G/F > D
From the above reference, we can say that A is the fourth shortest person.
Hence, statement I is sufficient to answer the question.
From statement II:
References:
C is taller than A.
C>A
F is taller than G.
F>G
At least two persons have heights between the heights of C and G.
C/G _ > _ G/C
The number of persons shorter than F is same as the number of persons taller than C.
A is not the shortest person.
Here, combining all the references together we do not get definite arrangement to answer the
question.
Hence, the statement II is not sufficient to answer the question.
Hence, the correct answer would be ‘Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question’.
References:
G is the daughter of B, who is the father of E, here E is a male. A is married to G, who is the sister-in-
law of D. H is the brother of C. F is married to B, who is the grandfather of C.
Following the above blood relation image, we don’t know the gender of C, so we cannot define relation
between C and F.
Hence, statement I is not sufficient to answer the question.
From statement II:
References:
E is the father of H, who is the grandson F. G is married to A, who is the brother-in-law E. C is the sister
of H, who is the son of D. F is mother of E, who is married to D. F is married to B.

Following the above blood relation image, we can see that C is a female; hence, C will be
granddaughter of F.
Hence, statement II is sufficient to answer the question.
10. The numbers that come between 'dilemma' and 'cclash' in step 2 are 45 and 62.
Required difference = 17
Common Explanation (11-15) :

Reference:
K sits second to the left of the one who wears Pink dress.
Only two persons sit to the left of the one who wears White dress and faces South.
The one who wears White dress is on the immediate right of K.
Inference:
Following arrangement can be prepared with the given hints.
Direction South South South South South

Dress Color Pink White
Persons K
Persons
Dress Color
Direction North North North North North
Reference:
P is on the immediate left of T, who faces the one who wears Red dress.
The one who wears White dress faces P.

Inference:

Dress Color Pink White Red
Persons K
Persons P T
Dress Color White Red
Reference:
R stands on the immediate left of the one who faces the one wearing Pink dress.
The one who wears Pink dress stands second to the right of R.
The persons wearing Pink and Red dress are adjacent in the row where P stands.
Inference:

Dress Color Pink White Red
Persons K
Persons R P T
Dress Color Red Pink Red
Reference:
J faces the one who wears Red dress.

The one who wears Green dress is on the immediate left of J.
T neither wears Green dress nor stands adjacent to Q.
Inference:
Therefore the person standing at extreme right end in the north facing row wears Green dress.

Dress Color Green Pink White Red
Persons J K
Persons R Q P T
Dress Color Green Red Pink Red Green
Reference:
N is on the immediate left of the one who faces the one wearing Yellow dress.
M is second to the right of the one who wears Yellow dress.
Inference:
Therefore N is standing at extreme left end in the south facing row and T wears Yellow dress.
N wears yellow dress.
Thus the only left places are occupied by L and S in their respective rows.

Dress Color Green Pink White Red Yellow
Persons L J M K N
Persons R Q P T S
Dress Color White Red Pink Yellow Green
11. The one who wears White dress is second to the right of the one wears Yellow dress in the south facing
row.
12. L faces the one who wears White dress.
Hence option B is correct.
13. P - M represents the persons sitting exactly in the middle of both the rows.
14. SK is the odd one out because in rest pairs both the persons are wearing same color dress.
Hence option E is correct
15. K wears Red color dress.
Hence option A is correct.
16. Statements I and II are correct as both depict the law as being outdated and against the interest of the
Indian democracy. Statement III is incorrect as we cannot judge the need for a law on the basis of its
application in another nation.
Hence, option C is correct.

17. Statement A is not correct for the fact that we are saying that the company is targeting higher growth
and on the other hand we are also saying that the company is not going to survive at all in the future.
Both these statements are contradictory and that is why this cannot be considered as correct
conclusion from the given passage.
Statement B is not correct for the fact that we are actually going against the spirit of the management
stated in the passage. The higher management has very clear vision for the growth of the company and
that is why it has announced the way in which it expects to grow in the future. This is very much clear
on the part of the management.
Statement C cannot be considered as correct since there is no reference in the passage regarding hiring
of new talent by the company and that is why we cannot just conclude it out of the blue.
Statement D is correct because all we have seen is that the company management wants to grow in
the future and that is why it has charted new ways in which it wants to grow in the coming months.
This makes Option D the correct choice among the given options.
Common Explanation (18-22):

References:
Aastha likes that brand which has head office in Basingstoke and he doesn’t like Calvin Klein.
Atul likes that brand which was established in 1921.
Aanchal likes Armani which was established six years before Guess and is a male.
Inference:
Because these all are direct hints that are given in our question so we can write these hints in our
table:
Person Gender Brand Year Head office Hints

Ajay
Akanksha
Aanchal M Armani
Atul 1921
Aashish
Aayush
Apurav
Aastha M Basingstoke C.K. ×
References:
Apurav likes Levi’s and its head office is in San Francisco.

Aashish likes that brand which head office is in California.
Neither Akanksha nor Aayush likes Guess and both are females.
Inferences:
We can again use these direct info. In the table:

Ajay
Akanksha F Guess ×
Aanchal M Armani
Atul 1921
Aashish California
Aayush F Guess ×
Apurav Levi’s San Francisco
Aastha M Basingstoke C.K. ×
References:
Guess was established in 1981 and no male likes it.
No female likes Burberry.
Aayush likes neither Calvin Klein nor that brand which head office is in Amsterdam.
The head office of Tommy Hilfiger is in Amsterdam and it is liked by a female.
Inferences:
We already know that Aayush doesn’t like Guess and now we have these hints so now we are sure that
Aayush also likes neither Calvin Klein nor Tommy Hilfiger.
For Guess we have this hint that no man likes it so:

Ajay
Akanksha F Guess ×
Aanchal M Armani Guess ×
Atul 1921
Aashish California
Aayush F Burberry, C.K., T.H., Guess ×
Apurav Levi’s San Francisco
Aastha M Basingstoke Guess, C.K. ×

References:
The head office is in New York of that brand which was established in 1968 and is liked by a male
Gucci’s head office is in Florence.
Inferences:
Now we have to remember these hints because these all are indirect hints and we can’t write these
hints direct in our table so:
New York – 1968 – Male

Gucci- Florence
We have a hint in our question that there are three males and others are females in the group so when
we see - New York – 1968 – Male we can find our 3rd male in this group because Atul likes that brand
which was established in 1921 so she should be a female, Aashish likes that brand which head office is
in California so She should also be a female and after that Apurav has already her favorite brand and
head office’s place so she will also be a female.

Ajay M
Akanksha F Guess ×
Aanchal M Armani Guess ×
Atul F 1921
Aashish F California
Apurav F Levi’s San Francisco
References:
Aanchal likes Armani which was established six years before Guess and is a male.
Guess was established in 1981.
Inferences:
Now we need to use this hint again because we have this hint (New York – 1968 – Male) and we know
that Guess was established in 1981 so Armani was established in 1975 so now we are sure about it
New York – 1968 – Male- Ajay so
And for Guess we know no male likes Guess so we have only one female Aashish who can like Guess-
1981 so:
https:// /#
Join us
Ajay M 1968 New York
Akanksha F Guess ×
Aanchal M Armani 1975 Guess ×
Atul F 1921
Aashish F Guess 1981 California
Apurav F Levi’s San Francisco
References:
Levi’s was established 115 years before Calvin Klein.
No female likes Burberry.
Inferences:
We have only two options for Calvin Klein either Ajay or Atul. To check for Atul, when we see the year
of that brand which is liked by Atul it is 1921 and when we subtract 115 from it we will get 1806 and
we don’t have year 1806 in our question and on the other hand when we subtract it from 1968 we will
get 1853 so Ajay should Calvin Klein.

Ajay M Calvin Klein 1968 New York
Akanksha F Guess ×
Atul F 1921
Apurav F Levi’s 1853 San Francisco
Aastha M Burberry Basingstoke Guess, C.K. ×
References:
Burberry was established 129 years before Tommy Hilfiger.
Tommy Hilfiger was established in that year which was not a leap year.
Inferences:
We have this information so when we will check it for 1921 - we subtract 129 from 1921, we get 1792
and we have only year - 1985, 1924, 1856 ledt with us and when we reduce it from 1985 we get 1856,
so:
Akanksha F Tommy Hilfiger 1985 Amsterdam Guess ×
Atul F 1921
Aayush F 1924 Burberry, C.K., T.H., Guess ×
Aastha M Burberry 1856 Basingstoke Guess, C.K. ×
References:
Hugo Boss was established in a leap year.
Gucci’s head office is in Florence.
Inferences:
1924 is a leap year and we don’t have any other hint so our final answer should be:
Final table:
Person Gender Brand Year Head office

Akanksha F Tommy Hilfiger 1985 Amsterdam
Aanchal M Armani 1975 Milan/ Germany
Atul F Gucci 1921 Florence
Aayush F Hugo Boss 1924 Milan/ Germany
Aastha M Burberry 1856 Basingstoke
18. Either Armani or Hugo Boss has its head office in Germany.
Option E, is hence the correct answer.
19. Ashish likes Guess.
Option C, is hence the correct answer.
20. Tommy Hilfiger was established in the year 1985.
Option A, is hence the correct answer.

21. Gucci was established in the year 1921.
Option B, is hence the correct answer.
22. None of the given option is correct.
Option E, is hence the correct answer.
23. How option C is the correct set of statements?
Option C: Some belts are watches. Some watches are caps. No cap is a ring.
C1: Those watches which are caps can never be rings.
Using S2 and S3, we get
Some watches are caps + No cap is a ring = Some watches are not rings.
Here, the middle term 'caps' has been deducted and therefore the conclusion 'The watches which are
caps can never be rings' follows.
C2: Some caps may be belts.
From S1 and S2,
'Some belts are watches' and 'Some watches are caps.' it's clear that the middle term 'watches' is not
being distributed even once in either of the statements. Therefore, possibilities do exist between the
class 'caps' and 'belts'.
Option C is hence the correct answer.
24. How option D is the correct set of statements?
Option D: Some halls are multiplexes. All multiplexes are theatres. No theatre is a seat.
C1: Some theatres are halls.
From S1 and S2, we get
Some halls are multiplexes + All multiplexes are theatres = Some halls are theatres.
Converse of it ⇒ Some theatres are halls. Conclusion 1 hence follows here.
C2: All seats may be halls.

From the conclusion derived above and S3, we get
Some halls are theatres + No theatre is a seat ⇒ Some halls are not seats.
In this derived conclusion, we are sure of some of the elements of class 'halls' whereas we aren't sure
of any of the elements of class 'seats'. Clearly, 'All seats may be halls'. Conclusion 2 too follows.
Option D is hence the correct answer.
25. How option B is the correct set of statements?
Option B: All snakes are tigers. All elephants are tigers. Some snakes are crocodiles.
C1: Some crocodiles are tigers.
Converse of S1, we get Some crocodiles are snakes. Clearly, C1 follows.
C2: All elephants may be snakes.
From S1 and S2, we get
All snakes are tigers + All elephants are tigers = No conclusion as the middle term is not distributed in
either of the statements.
Clearly, possibilities exist between 'elephants' and 'snakes'. 'All elephants may be snakes' hence
follows.
Option B is hence the correct answer.
Common explanation (26-30):

Reference:
The wall clock in the restaurant is fixed in North direction and is visible to Jayesh as he is exactly in
front of the clock.
Inference: Jayesh is sitting exactly opposite to the wall clock.

Reference:
Mukesh, who is sitting opposite to Jayesh, played Poker. Ankit being Jayesh's brother is sitting third to
the left of Jayesh.
Inference: Ankit is in the immediate right of Mukesh.
Reference:
Mamta who played cards is exactly opposite to Rohit and is sitting second to the left of Mukesh.
Inference: Out of the three females Mamta is also the one who played cards.
Reference:
Priya, sister of Ankit is sitting exactly opposite to him. Both of them played different games but not
cards.
Inference:
Reference:
Now, we are left with Sheena and Raju. Mother and 1 daughter, played cards and are sitting adjacent
to each other on the table.
Inference: Both card players sit adjacent to each other, so, Sheena should have played cards.
Note:
As Priya have not played cards so must have played Scavenger hunt, then Ankit must have played
Poker.
Ankit, being brother of Jayesh, must be that son of the family, who plays Poker with father.
As parents don’t sit together, so, Mamta should be the mother in the family.
Final arrangement:
26. Mukesh is the father in the family.
Option A, Is hence the correct answer.
27. Raju is sitting opposite to Sheena.
Option B, Is hence the correct answer.
28. Ankit plays Poker with the father.
Option C, Is hence the correct answer.

29. Priya mukesh - is the different combination.
Option D, Is hence the correct answer.
30. Mukesh and Mamta are the parents of the family.
Option D, Is hence the correct answer.
31. Studying the given figure we can say that the distance between U and A is 44 Km and we know that it
took 40 minutes for the car to travel this distance.
Thus, we can say that the average speed of the car is 66 Km/h.
And, from the figure we can say that distance between S and P is 11 Km
there fore it will take exactly 10 minutes for the same car to travel this distance.
Hence, the correct answer is option A.
32. From the given image we can see that the distance between U and S is 22 Km and the distance
between X and E is 28 Km.
And the average is (22+28)/2 = 25 Km
Hence the correct answer is option A.

33. We can see that in the table
EU = 14
SA = 22
US = 22
XE = 28
ES = 36
Here E is the highest value.
Hence the correct answer is option E.
34. An assumption’s negation affects the legitimacy of the passage.
Option A if untrue makes the passage more legitimate. Thus, this does not hold as the assumption.
Same is the case with option C.
Options D and E are nowhere mentioned and also do not affect the passage.
Option C is perfect. The National government’s (Centre) decision to ratify assumes that development is
just the concern of the Centre.
Hence, option C is correct.
35. Statement (I) and Statement (II) together are sufficient.

Option A, is hence the correct answer.
Checking option A:
Statement I: Z is placed fourth to the right of F. E is not placed immediately next to either F or Z.
Statement II: Y is placed immediately next (either left or right) to Z. N is placed immediately next
(towards right) to E.
From S1, we get
F Z
E (x) E (x) E (x) E (x)
Clearly, E will find its place as shown below:
F E Z
E (x) E (x) E (x) E (x)
Combining info given in S2, we get
N is placed immediately next (towards right) to E.
F E N Z
E (x) E (x) E (x) E (x)
Using S2 again, we get
Y is placed immediately next (either left or right) to Z.
F E N Z Y
E (x) E (x) E (x) E (x)
Clearly, R will find its place to the immediate right of F as there are only 6 letters available.
F R E N Z Y
E (x) E (x) E (x)
Evidently, option A is correct.
36. All the statement (I), statement (II) and statement (III) together are sufficient.
Option D, is hence the correct answer.
Reference: ‘Lives on one odd’ is coded as ‘zo ti zx mi’ and ‘in floor and cash’ is coded as ‘ga to ru ba’
Inference: We cannot determine code of any word using the above given statement.
Reference: ‘Lives even numbered one’ is coded as ‘zx le ef mi’ and ‘even integer are different’ is coded
as ‘yu si pt le’
Inference: even is coded as 'le'
Reference: ‘Lives them and cash’ is coded as ‘to mi ru ha’ and ‘them on popular one’ is coded as ‘qu zx
zo ha’
Inference: them is coded as 'ha'
Hence, Statement I, II or III alone cannot answer the problem.
Now,
Using all three together we get the cose of:
One is coded as 'zx'
Lives is coded as 'mi'
on is coded as 'zo'
So, Odd is coded as 'ti'
Therefore, all the statement (I), statement (II) and statement (III) together are sufficient.
37. Statement III is only sufficient.

Option C, is hence the correct answer.
Reference:
Q sits second to right of S. S faces the centre. R sits to immediate right of both Q and S.
Inference:
Reference:
P sits to immediate left of Q. R is not an immediate neighbor of P. R sits to immediate right of S.
Inference:
Reference:
S is an immediate neighbor of both P and R. Q sits to the immediate left of P. R sits to the immediate
right of S and also S is immediate left of R and second to the left of Q.
Inference:
Hence, statement III is only sufficient to answer the question.
38. C can be directly ignored as C is not from the family and not mentioned in any of the clues.
B is the mother-in-law of F and F is the daughter-in-law of D. Hence, B-D have to form a wife-husband
pair and they should have a son.
Since D is male, options A and C can be eliminated.
A is the sister of E and the daughter of F. Hence, F is the mother of both A and E.
Also, E is the only son of G. Since F is female, G is the husband of F.
Hence, G is the son of B-D (or D is the father of G).
Option D is hence the correct answer.
39. Number given : 7634286429
New number : 8442367237
Second , fourth and eighth digits from left end are : 4,2 and 2.
Required product = 16
40. The argument here is that of the right to equality i.e. the right of women to have equal access to all
places of worship irrespective of their age. All options with the exception of option C strengthen the
argument.
Hence, Option C is correct.
