Directions (Q. 51-59): Read the following passage
carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain
words are given in bold to help you locate them while
answering some of the questions.
It is an old dictum of political science that the state comes
into being for life (protection of life and security) but it exists
for good life. The transition of modern democracies from
merely providing security from external aggression and
internal disturbances and disorder to a welfare state providing
the citizen social security schemes from the cradle to the
grave is a familiar phenomenon of the 20th century. India is
no exception to the rule. In fact, the Indian concept of justice
Dharmais far older than the concept of law. India had always
regarded that peace and security were empty concepts in a
system where social, political and economic justice was denied
to the people.
The concept of justice is itself a changing one. It changes
with the growth and development of the society and with the
philosophy which informs the society at a given time. For
instance, slavery was legitimate in certain parts of the world
but is no longer so now. An eye for eye and tooth for tooth
was considered just in primitive society but is abhorrent today.
In our own lifetime, right to property was included as a
fundamental right in Art 19 (1)(f) of the Constitution. By 1978,
it was sought to be removed from the statute books as
contrary to the socialist philosophy. All these go to show
that human ingenuity does not extend to foreseeing the near
or distant future and that no law can be permanent or
immutable. Orderly transition and growth of society can be
stalled only at the peril of a revolution.
No Constitution is or can be perfect. Nor can it provide
for every contingency that may arise in the future. Besides
conditions change or new concepts emerge as a result of
changes in the political, social and economic conditions and
concepts. According to political science, sovereignty may
rest with the Crown in a monarchy or with a dictator in ruthless
control over the people. But in a democracy sovereignty rests
with the people of the country. If the generation living in 1949
had the authority to frame a Constitution for the nation, the

generation living in 2000 AD will have equal right to add,

alter, amend, delete, substitute or even to frame a new
Constitution, subject to compliance with the conditions and
restrictions imposed by the Constitution itself.
51. According to the theory of political science, survival of
a state is related to
1) The law of the land.
2) Its tradition.
3) The welfare of its people.
4) Its defence strategy.
5) The growth of its service sector.
52. In India the main concept of the state is
1) The body which controls internal disturbances.
2) The organ which runs governments.
3) The organ which builds international relations.
4) The body which support the social cause.
5) The body which generates life.
53. Which of the following statements stands true in context
of the Indian philosophy?
1) Peace and security emanates from social, political and
economic justice.
2) Peace and security are empty slogans in todays
society.
3) There is no peace where there is no security.
4) Social, political and economic justice is a dream for
the people.
5) None of these
54. What does it implyAn eye for eye and tooth for tooth
was considered just in primitive society but is abhorrent

Close and confidential relations between Russia and
India are based on the proximity of their fundamental national
interests and rest upon the centuries-old history of peaceful
and mutually beneficial contacts between the two nations.
The strength of these bonds has been tested many times in
critical situations. Time and again, in moments of crisis, both
New Delhi and Moscow have turned to each other.
India has been and remains, without any reservations,
Russias closest and most reliable friend and partner. Of
principal importance is the national consensus existing in the
two countries regarding the necessity for developing further
cooperation between both bilaterally and in the international
arena. The intensity of political dialogue has been on a steady
rise, embracing ever new challenges and issues emerging in
the context of a rapidly-changing situation in the world. It is
based on the convergence of views with regard to major
problems of the present days. Summit-level talks between
president VV Putin and prime minister AB Vajpayee and
meetings of the ministers of foreign affairs, including their
interaction at the UN, have become an annual feature.
Trilateral interaction among Russia, India and China is
gaining momentum and acquiring substance. Deliberations
on anumber of joint working groups set up by the foreign
ministries are yielding noticeable results. The first rounds of
the working group on global challenges and the working
groups on international terrorism in Sep-Oct 2003 brought
the two countries together as de facto allies, once again
providing the effectiveness of our joint quests for ways to
strengthen international and regional security. Russia has
supported the advancement of the process of normalisation
between India and Pakistan.

Vajpayees 12 steps to peace initiative addressed to the

leadership of Pakistan has received our full support. It
provides a realistic and durable basis for the resumption of
dialogue and settlement of all outstanding problems between
these two South Asian countries on the basis of the 1972
Shimla Accord and 1998 Lahore Declaration. No doubt, to
make it possible, favourable conditions should be created.
First of all, the acts of trans-border terrorism along the Line of
Control in Jammu and Kashmir must be stopped.
New Delhis views on the situation in Afghanistan and
Iraq are consonant with the assessments of our diplomacy.
Together we are doing our best to restore peaceful life there.
We are consistently upholding the centrality of the
coordinating role of the United Nations, and the necessity of
concerted actions of the entire comity of nations when such
crises with international ramifications take place. We have
been successful jointly in mapping the means and avenues
of expanding the scope of trade and economic cooperation.
Highly productive deliberations have been held on the
Intergovernmental Commission on Trade, Scientific,
Technological and Cultural Cooperation. Experts are actively
working out a mechanism for investing the rupee assets
available to Russia as a result of the repayment of Indias
debt into promising projects in both countries.
The prospects of cooperation in this sphere give rise to
optimism. Military and technical cooperation, being a
significant and inalienable segment of the special nature of
the bilateral relationship, is doing splendidly. A number of
major deals in the pipeline are now being finalised. When
signed, they will make a considerable contribution to
strengthening Indias defence capability and security while
promoting peace and stability in the region. Among the top
priorities on the Russian-Indian agenda are also our
traditionally warm people-to-people contacts and cooperation
in the field of culture. An example of this is the successful
functioning of the Russian-Indian International Roerich
Memorial Trust in Naggar in Kullu Valley, Himachal Pradesh.
Every year the Roerich Museum and Art Gallery there are
visited by over 100,000 tourists from around the country and
abroad. It is symbolic that as the prime minister visits Moscow,
an exhibition on Russian culture is on in all major Indian
metros, drawing large audiences.
This colourful gala marks the renaissance of active
cultural cooperation between the two countries and highlights
the special spiritual affection the Russians and Indians have
for each other. For many centuries, this magic bridge of culture,
stretching over the Palmaris and the Himalayas, has spanned
our nations, and together with our Indian friends we keep
walking along it towards the future horizons of our strategic
partnership.

No letter is a vowel (E) conversion No vowel

is a letter (E). Hence conclusion 2) follows.
No letter is a vowel (E) + All vowels are words (A) =
E + A = O* = Some words are not letters. Hence 3)
follows.
Now, Some numbers are not vowels (O) + All vowels
are words (A) = O + A = No conclusion. Hence
conclusion 4) does not follow.
All vowels are words (A)
conversion
Some
words are vowels (I). Hence conclusion 5) follows.
There is no negative statement. Thus the
possibilities in 1) and 5) exist. Hence conclusion 1)
and 5) both follow.
All papers are pages (A) + Some pages are books (I)
= A + I = No conclusion. Hence conclusion 2) does
not follow.
Some pages are books (I) + All books are copies (A)
= I + A = I = Some pages are copies (I). Hence
conclusion 3) follows.
All papers are pages (A)
conversion

pages are papers (I). Hence conclusion 4) follows.
Some glasses are bottles + All bottles are caps = I +
A = I = Some glasses are caps. Hence I follows. No
cup is a glass (E) conversion No glass is a cup
(E). Hence conclusion 5) follows. No cup is a glass
(E) + Some glasses are bottles (I) = E + I = O* = Some
bottles are not cups (O*). Hence conclusion 2)
follows.
Some bottles are not cups (O*) + All bottles are
caps (A) = O* + A = No conclusion. Hence conclusion
3) does not follow.
All bottles are caps (A) conversion Some caps
are bottles (I). Hence conclusion 4) follows.

25. 2; From I: The code for book is mik or nek or bek or
fek.
From II:
pik tik mik rik I like reading book ... (i)
mik juk pan
you read book ... (ii)
From (i) and (ii), code for book is mik because only
book is common in both.
(26-30): Here the rule followed is:
In each step the fourth word becomes the first and
the last becomes the fourth. All the other words
shift simply towards right except the third, which
shifts two places rightwards.
The words may be represented digitally as follows:
Input:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Step I: 4 1 2 7 3 5 6
Step II: 7 4 1 6 2 3 5
Step III: 6 7 4 5 1 2 3
Step IV: 5 6 7 3 4 1 2
Step V: 3 5 6 2 7 4 1
Step VI: 2 3 5 1 6 7 4
Step VII: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
and so on.
26. 5; Step V: lo nui wuf go dum eu mo

The above step is Step II. But as we see step VII is
the same as the input. So Step IX will be the same as
Step II.
