Polity: Analysis vs other exam

Among CDS, CAPF and CSAT conducted this year, You can see some continuity and some
divergence.
CDS & CAPF 2014
CSAT-2014 (prelims)
CAPF 2014:Consider the following

statements about Constitutional
Government:
1. It is a form of limited
government
2. One where Constitution is the
basis of public authority
3. One where Monarch is the
formal Head of the State
CSAT 2014: Consider the following statements : A

Constitutional Government is one which
1. places effective restrictions on individual liberty
in the interest of State Authority
2. places effective restrictions on the Authority of
4. One where there is always

universal adult franchise
the State in the interest of individual liberty

Then you had to find out correct statements.
Then you had to find out correct

statements.
CAPF: asked about functions of

governor
Yes they too asked.
Both CDS and CAPF asked questions

about function of parliamentary
Committee.
Asked name of Largest Committee. (So in a way,

although ascending-descending order type MCQs
did not come in Economy but that type of question
came here in polity.
Asked current affairs based polity

e.g. Expenditure limit in Lok Sabha
Nothing from current based polity- election,

representation of peoples act, VVPAT etc. nothing
Ventured into ULB, PRI
Did not
Ventured into more details of

parliamentary procedures, powers
of Dy.Speaker etc. beyond whats
given in Laxmikanth.
Did not.
Asked questions from Chapters on

President and Parliament.
Thats evergreen topic, just like Buddhism, Jainism.

Here too, questions came from President and
parliament.
Asked about Bodies (e.g.

membership in NHRC)
some
Some questions from NCERT

political science (e.g. correct
meaning of democracy)
Nope.

Polity Brief Analysis: CSAT 2014 itself

Debatable. Depends on preparation level
9 out of 11 questions, could be solved DIRECTLY from the book M.Laxmikanths book
(http://www.flipkart.com/indian-polity-4th/p/itmdmmsnbhqfwj3a?
pid=9781259064128&affid=mrunalrugm), Therefore putting them under Easy to Moderate
level difficulty.
difficulty
President
power
Easy
Gov.power
Easy but prone to silly mistakes.
no
confidence
Easy / debatable depending on how you interpret only
Largest
Committee
Moderate. In the pre-CSAT era, Public Administration players used to

religiously mugup Committee membership tables for prelims. But in the
recent years, players would have stopped bothering with trivial highestlowest, ascending-descending orders.
10th
Schedule
Ridiculously easy. Some serious players may have even felt this MCQ to be an
insult to their intelligence.
Sc
jurisdiction
Same as above
DPSP
international
peace
Same as above
SC no. of
judges
Easy. Although some may have got confused about president instead of
parliament. thinking that President signs and appoints them so he decides.

Bodies

planning
Easy / debatable depending on how your interpret planning

Outside Laxmikanth
Easy / Moderate
One can solve it through logic as well, but usually players hesitate
Cabinet
Secretariat
doing that in UPSC (which is a good thing otherwise because as such

gut-feeling=grave digging.)
Half of the answer given in India Yearbook 2014, Chapter2 Polity. But its
silent on cabinet agenda.
Verbatim answer given in Laxmikanths Public Administration book.
Constitutional
Government
Difficult because multiple interpretations. I could not locate Verbatim

answer.
How to approach Polity in CSAT-2015?

Yes, after all the purpose of doing this answerkey majoori is not cut-off speculation but to fine
tune strategy for next year.
1. NCERT Political science must be read. Even though no questions came from CSAT-2014),
but it has its utilities.
2. Indian Polity by M.Laxmikanth (Tata Macgrawhill Publication)
(http://www.flipkart.com/indian-polity-4th/p/itmdmmsnbhqfwj3a?
pid=9781259064128&affid=mrunalrugm) must be used as Base-book for polity theory. All
chapters, appendix must be prepared in thorough detail, all mock questions must be
solved. Although recent exams have been mainly focused President, parliament and DPSP
chapters and overall easier nature of question compared to last year. BUT you cannot take
anything for granted in UPSC.
3. India Yearbooks (http://www.flipkart.com/india-2014-english/p/itmdtatf88prbxmh?

pid=9788123019093&affid=mrunalrugm) Chapter 3 (Polity) must be read.
4. Polity Current affairs must be prepared throughout the year, from TheHINDU.
5. Because, even though current polity not asked in CSAT-2014, but Mains-2013 GS paper II
descriptive questions on polity, had the current flavor.
6. Besides Current Polity important for interviews and backup exams (SSC, CAPF) etc.
anyways.
Answers: Polity Executive (2MCQ)

Presidents Powers
Q1. Consider the following statements:
1. The President shall make rules for the more convenient transaction of the business of the
Government of India, and for the allocation among Ministers of the said business.
2. All executive actions of the Government of India shall be expressed to be taken in the name
of the Prime Minister.
Which of the statements given above is / are correct?
A. 1 only
B. 2 only
C. Both 1 and 2
D. Neither 1 nor 2
Ref: Laxmikanth 4th edition. Pg 17.7 Topic: Executive Powers of President.
1. Statement 1 is correct. (Article 77(3) uses the same wording Shall).
2. All executive actions of the Government of India shall be expressed to be taken in the name
of the PRESIDENT (not prime minister). Therefore, statement 2 is wrong.
Therefore, Answer: (a) 1 only
Governors discretionary power
Q2. Which of the following are the discretionary powers given to the Governor of a State?
1. Sending a report to the President of India for imposing the Presidents rule
2. Appointing the Ministers
3. Reserving certain bills passed by the State Legislature for consideration of the President of
India
4. Making the rules to conduct the business of the State Government
Select the correct answer using the code given below.
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 1 and 3 only.
C. 2, 3 and 4 only.
D. 1, 2, 3 and 4
We must use elimination method, otherwise there is good chance of making silly mistakes.
Ref. Laxmikanth Page26.10, bottom lines: The governor has Constitutional discretion in
following cases:
Reservation of bill for consideration of the President.
Recommendation of the imposition of Presidents rule.
Therefore, statement 1 and 3 are definitely right. Eliminate all choices, that donot have (1 and
3) together.
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 1 and 3 only.
C. 2, 3 and 4 only.
D. 1, 2, 3 and 4
Now we are left with B and D. Lets focus attention to statement 2. Appointing the Ministers
As per Laxmikanth Chapter chief minister, Page 27.2, last section.
The chief minister enjoys following powers.Governor only appoints those persons as
ministers who are recommended by the Chief Minister.
In other words Governor doesnt have Discretion in appointment of the minister.
Therefore, #2 is wrong. Eliminate choices involving number 2.
A. 1 and 2 only
B. 1 and 3 only.
C. 2, 3 and 4 only.
D. 1, 2, 3 and 4
Therefore, B is the final answer.
Answers: Legislature related (3MCQ)

No Con dence motion
1. Consider the following statements regarding a No-Confidence Motion in India:
1. There is no mention of a No-Confidence Motion in the Constitution of India.
2. A Motion of No-Confidence can be introduced in the Lok Sabha only.
A. 1 only
B. 2 only
C. Both 1 and 2
D. Neither 1 nor 2
Answer: (c) both 1 and 2
Ref: Laxmikanth chapter on parliament, Page 22.15
Art 75 says that the Council of Ministers shall be collectively responsible to Loksabha. In
other words, Lok Sabha can remove them by passing a no-confidence motion. But the word
no confidence motion itself is not given in Constitution itself, it comes from Rule 198 of
LokSabha Rules. Therefore statement 1 is right, NCM not in Constitution.
Same chapter page 22.29. Rajya Sabha cannot pass cannot remove council of ministers by
passing no-confidence motion. Meaning- statement 2 also correct- no confidence motion
can be introduced, only in Lok Sabha.
Therefore, Answer C Both 1 and 2 correct.
Counter view:
No confidence motion can be introduced in Vidhan Sabha therefore statement #2 is wrong.
because it uses the word only Therefore, answer is (B) only 2.
Final Answer? UPSCs official answerkey. sometimes they drag the only logic, sometimes
they dont. (as ive observed in some of the economy questions in past exam, so pendulum can
swing either way.)
Parliament Committees
Q2. Which one of the following is the largest Committee of the Parliament?
A. The Committee on Public Accounts
B. The Committee on Estimates
C. The Committee on Public Undertakings
D. The Committee on Petitions
Ref: Laxmikanth Chapter on Parliament. Page 22.30 to 22.33
Committee on
No. of members
Public Accounts
22
Estimates
30
Public Undertakings
22
Petitions.
LS(15) , RS(10)
Therefore, largest Committee is Estimates, given its 30 members. Hence answer is (b)
10th Sch. Anti-defection
1. Which one of the following Schedules of the Constitution of India contains provisions
regarding anti-defection?
A. Second Schedule
B. Fifth Schedule
C. Eighth Schedule
D. Tenth Schedule
Ans: (d) Tenth Schedule
Ref: Laxmikanth ch.67, opening paragraph
The 52nd Amendment act of 1985, added 10th schedule to the Constitution. This is often
referred to as anti-defection law.
Answers: Judiciary related (2MCQ)

SC jurisdiction
Q1. The power of the Supreme Court of India to decide disputes between the Centre and
the States falls under its
A. advisory jurisdiction
B. appellate jurisdiction.
C. original jurisdiction
D. writ jurisdiction
Laxmikanth Chapter on Supreme court. Page 25.5. Topic original jurisdiction.
As a federal court, the supreme court decides the disputes between centre and one or
more states.
Therefore, Answer (C)Original Jurisdiction
SC No. of Judges
Q2. The power to increase the number of judges in the Supreme Court of India is vested in
A. the President of India
B. the Parliament
C. the Chief Justice of India
D. The Law Commission
Laxmikanth Chapter on Supreme court. Page 25.1 Topic organization of Supreme court:-
Parliament has increased number of judges from 10 in 1956 to..
Therefore, answer: (b) Parliament.
Answers: Organizations (2MCQ)

Five year Planning
Q1. Which of the following are associated with Planning in India?
1. The Finance Commission
2. The National Development Council
3. The Union Ministry of Rural Development
4. The Union Ministry of Urban Development
5. The Parliament
A. 1, 2 and 5 only
B. 1, 3 and 4 only
C. 2 and 5 only
D. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5
Approach 1:
Finance commission is involved in distribution of taxes and grants. It is not involved in
planning. So by just eliminating all options involving statement 1, we get answer [C] only 2 and
5 correct.
Approach 2 (just to cross check)
Laxmikanth chapter on National development council, Page 49.1
The draft five-year plan, prepared by the planning commission s first submitted to the union
Cabinet. After its approval, it is placed before the National development Council, for its
acceptance. Then, the plan is presented to Parliament, with its approval, it emerges as the
official plan and published in the official Gazette.
Therefore, 2(NDC) and 5(Parliament) correct. Answer [C]
Counter-argument:
all those are stakeholders and therefore involved. Hence answer (D) 1 to 5. Anyways, UPSCs
official answerkey=final judge.
Sidenote: there was also an MCQ on theme of five year plan but I classify it under economy.
Cabinet Secretariat, Functions of
Q2. Which of the following is / are the function/functions of the Cabinet Secretariat?
1. Preparation of agenda for Cabinet Meetings
2. Secretarial assistance to Cabinet Committees
3. Allocation of financial resources to the Ministries
A. 1 only
B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1 and 2 only
D. 1, 2 and 3
Statement number 1 and 2 are correct. As per following resources
1. M.Laxmikanths Public Administration book (http://www.flipkart.com/public-administrationenglish-1st/p/itmdx9s7cbybnrmn?
pid=9780071074827&ppid=9780071074827&affid=mrunalrugm), Chapter on Union
Government page 427. Both functions given verbatim.
2. Cabinet Secretariat Website :- http://cabsec.nic.in/about_functions.php
(http://cabsec.nic.in/about_functions.php)
3. India yearbook 2014, Chapter 3 Polity, page 40. Accordingly statement #2 is correct.
(Although its silent on 1 and 3).
Statement #3 outside the realms of cabinet Secretariat. Financial resources are allotted to
ministries, as per the provisions in budget prepared by finance ministry. Therefore, answer C
only 1 and 2.
Answers: Constitution- Basics (2MCQ)

DPSP
Q1. In the Constitution of India, promotion of international peace and security is
included in the
A. Preamble to the Constitution
B. Directive Principles of State Policy (DPSP)
C. Fundamental Duties
D. Ninth Schedule
Ref: Laxmikanth Chapter 8 on Directive principles of State Policy, page 8.3
Article 51: to promote international peace and security and maintain just an honorable
relations between nations between nations; to foster respect for international law and treaty
obligations, and to encourage settlements of international disputes by arbitration.
Therefore, answer (B) DPSP
Constitutional Government
Q2. Consider the following statements : A Constitutional Government is one which
1. Places effective restrictions on individual liberty in the interest of State Authority
2. Places effective restrictions on the Authority of the State in the interest of individual liberty
A. 1 only
B. 2 only.
C. Both 1 and 2
D. Neither 1 nor 2
While both statements are correct as such. But are both necessary to explain what is a
Constitutional government?
Viewpoint1
Answer C, both correct
Viewpoint2
Answer B, only 2
Art 19 State can put

reasonable
restrictions. Art22
Preventive detention
(but with caveats)=>1
is right.
Art. 20, 21, 22, =>
protection against

While both is right, no doubt. But which one of them are

essential to explain the term Constitutional government?
Only second term: places effective restriction on the
authority of state.

Page9. A state is a Constitutional state, if it limits its powers
and recognizes the rights of individuals as fundamental for

Hello, I have left my job for this exam and started preparing from 2013
onwards. I was waiting desperately for this exam and after matching with
the answer keys I got around 196 marks. Not sufficient I prepared well,
taken in depth knowledge of many subjects but still got screwed in the
end, some due to silly mistakes

and some due to lack in speed, was not able to attempt 9q in csat. But i
have no regrets, I learned and will go for 2015 attempt.
I can only suggest that do not underestimate yourself and failure is
always a lesson as it brings the best out of you next time.
Rest all is destiny and believe in yourself
and Kudos to Mrunal, you are really doing a great job, your articles are
worth reading and understanding
and helps in preparation a lot.
Wish you all Success and those who are getting above 210, do not waste
time start kicking up for Mains.
Time is precious, Never sit idle

many things efficiently.

Nishant
For the question on constitutional govt. The option C is correct, because

in a constitutional govt., Constitution is supreme. All the subjects be it
Government or the persons, all are subject to its supremacy. Thus in this
way Constitution can put restriction on both Govt and the citizens.
Abhishek Garg
Dear Friends,
With ref to question on Planning, we know the conflict that the role of
FC is usurped by PC. Therefore we should not eliminate FC without
digging deeper.

Q2. Consider the following statements : A Constitutional Government is

one which
(1) Places effective restrictions on individual liberty in the interest of State
Authority
(2) Places effective restrictions on the Authority of the State in the
interest of individual liberty..
Under the reference source given by you, 1 must be correct. My logic is
same as logic for fundamental rights, we have freedom but not in
unlimited way, we have rights but not in such a way so that we can
disrupt law and order maintained by state. State can also put some
check and balances.

Countries like saudi arabia, vatican city, china, etc have

pk
Very True. 100% confident.

Pavan
Conveniently left this most ambiguous question, its been 8 days

and still many cant arrive at a perfect logic any way UPSC doesnt
expect us to score 100%, few questions in UPSC are their to be left
out, no one else except upsc can give an unquestionable logic to
them, just because their logic cannot be questioned.

Consider the following statements : A Constitutional Government is one

which
iske ans me indian constitute kyo reference me h question to general
Constitutional Government ka h na ki indian gov ke reference me mere
anusar generally Constitutional Government ki paribhasha kuch or hoti h
Vivek
@ Mrunal: The Constitutional Govt question everyone is looking at the

first part of the statements only.
1. places effective restrictions on individual liberty in the interest of State
Authority Is reasonable restrictions in the interest of State authority?
No, a number of reasons are mentioned in the constitution itself like for
security, public order etc. but not state authority
2. Places effective restrictions on the Authority of the State in the interest
of individual liberty Effective restrictions on Authority of State fine but is
it in the interests of Individual liberty? No. Lakshmikanth clearly says this
by comparing our constitution with British
So answer should be neither!

Yogesh Meena
Vivek , I applied same logic in exam, pretty sure ans will be neither!
kamal
@ mrunal.
though its a big out of box thinking but just consider it.
question is given which of them is associated with the planning not which
of these is preparing or involved in planning.
my take is role of finance commission is taken over by the planning
commission.it means finance commission is associated with planning.
again on the recommendation of FC it is decided that how much of the
tax proceed will be appropriated to statesagain it says that president
can assign any work to FC which he thinks suitable for FC.
similarly every ministry sends their financial request to finance ministry
for the approval. routine grants are sanctioned by finance ministry but if
something new occurs then the finance ministry ask for the necessity of
the same. somehow it implies that every ministry prepare their plan.so
i think answer will be all 1,2,3,4,5.
plz dont bombard on me.

Consider the following statements : A Constitutional Government is one

which
1. Places effective restrictions on individual liberty in the interest of State
Authority
2 .Places effective restrictions on the Authority of the State in the interest
of individual liberty
Answer of this question lies inside the difference between
CONSTITUTIONAL GOVT. and CONSTITUTIONALISM.
a constitution ought not merely to confer powers on the various organs of
the govt. but also SEEK to restrain those powers, while constitutionalism
recognizes the need for govt. but also insists limitation being PLACES
upon the govt. powers. constitutionalism envisages checks and balance
and putting the powers of the legislature and the executive under some
restrains and not making them uncontrolled and arbitrary. this makes
statement 2 (100%) incorrect without any doubt. while statement 1 does
not makes any sense as it states in the interest of state authority.
