26. C; iii–i–ii–iv. Passage starts with iii and then is followed by i. iv and ii form a mandatory pair also.
27. D; iv–iii–ii–i. iv and iii form a mandatory pair. And so also ii and I form a mandatory pair.

39. B; misplaced modifier error here. “Both” needs to be placed after “provide” as then the both

then it is applied on the verb “provide” and needs another verb to complete the set as in “both
provide and assist”
40. B; “complete” instead of “completed”. Concept tested here is parallelism. All the verbs need to
have the same form “do” “identify” and “complete”.

112. D; DVB (Same as above). Arijit will be liable since the hall he made was not fulfilling the
requirements and hence not fit to accommodate people.
113. D; The breaking and falling of a tree is obviously not within the control of the municipal
corporation. At the same time, the consequences arising out of the tree falling resulting in the
death of the plaintiff is certainly not foreseeable.
114. A; the DMC was clearly negligent since they knew about the tree and still refused to act.
115. A; the workers were negligent in leaving the road in such a situation without a warning sign.
Speed of the car becomes irrelevant.
116. A; the contract talked about the delivery before the siege, the requirement of munitions was for
the siege and the HTT knew that. The delivery becomes irrelevant if the siege is over and hence
it was a condition of the contract.
117. C; Breach of contract has not happened since the supply was made within the time frame i.e.
before the 28th of the month.
118. B; Principle 2 clause 2 is directly applicable in this case. The fact that the buyer has accepted 58

the same without any recourse to public authorities. Also the use of force is in any case
disproportional.

120. A; Although every citizen has the right to move freely throughout India, this restriction by the
State is a reasonable one since it is being put in the interest of national security and public
safety.
121. A; Although the restriction is being imposed for a week, it is being done to ensure the safety of
the citizens. The Government has reason to believe that the lives of the citizens maybe
endangered due to the threat of bombs being planted in metro stations
122. B; The State is being unreasonable by imposing such a ban on rallies in support of gay rights. The
voices of citizens are being suppressed merely because the Government is not in favour of
legalizing homosexuality. Moreover, the citizens have a right to assemble peacefully and
without arms, and to move freely throughout India. Prohibiting such rallies from taking place is
thus unconstitutional.
123. B; This restriction is an unreasonable one because by declaring their sexuality online, the citizens
are merely exercising their freedom to speech and expression. This cannot be said to lead to
obscenity online.
124. A; There is mensrea in this case, because A knew that the snake was a poisonous one, and that it
would inevitably bite B. Hence, he is guilty of culpable homicide.
125. A; Section 301 of IPC is directly applicable here. Although he intended to cause B’s death, he
killed C. However, it was done with the intention and the knowledge that it would killa person.
Hence, A is guilty of causing culpable homicide in the same way as if he had caused B’s death.
126. B; This is not a case of culpable homicide because A had neither the intention nor the knowledge
that his act would be likely to cause death of the man. However, he was negligent because he
was shooting recklessly. Hence, section 304A of IPC is applicable here.
127. D; While exercising his right of private defence, A can cause someone’s death only if there is
apprehension of any threat to his own life. Here, just because B had a gun in his hand, it
cannot be reasonably concluded that he intended to use it on A. Hence, A cannot take this
defence.
128. C; In this case, there is no reasonable apprehension of death by B. He was merely being dramatic.
This cannot amount to him trying to murder A. Hence, A did exceed his right of private
defence.
129. D; it was the duty of TAPU to confer degree on the students, and denial of that amounts to
deficiency in service.
130. A; X is guilty as he had the intention of wholly abandoning his child for whatever be the
circumstances.

since the case was against both the son and them other, therefore, the son also cannot be

false warranty pertaining to the product, there has been a breach of warranty.

her employment.
141. A; Since Fresca composed the poems outside of her employment with Poesie and not for the
purpose of publication therein, Fresca being the author is the first owner of copyright of the
poems.
142. B; Since Mindy is the author of the book about Fresca, it is she who will be the first owner of
copyright over the book.
143. C; Since both (a) and (b) are facts relevant to the issue in the case, i.e. tussle for becoming CEO of

relevance.

subsequent annexation, so they have shown their displeasure.

Hence Volleyball was won by Sherwood in Jaipur. As none of Tennis, Volleyball, Hockey and Chess is
won by Oriental, cricket was won by Oriental and BBD won Tennis. Prestige did not win a tournament in
Bombay or Jaipur or Lucknow or Raipur. Hence, Prestige won a tournament in Kolkata and similarly
National did not win a tournament in Bombay or Jaipur or Lucknow or Kolkata. Hence, they won in
Raipur and thus, BBD college won a tournament in Bombay.

190. D; P is in 1st and Q is in 3rd racing lane. T is not adjacent to Q. So, Q is in 5th racing lane. Thus, R can
be racing lane 2 or 4. Hence, (d)
191. D; Q is running in 4th and R in 3rd racing lane. From above conditions, S or T or P cannot run in 5 th
racing lane. Also, S cannot run in 1st racing lane. Thus, S runs in 2nd racing lane. But neither P
nor T can run in 5th racing lane. So, data is inconsistent. Hence, (d)
192. A; S cannot run in racing lane 1st and 5th. Also from given conditions, S cannot be on 3rd racing
lane as then 4th and 5th would be occupied by P and R by conditions given which would result
in Q and T occupying 1st and 2nd racing lanes which violates the condition. Thus, S has to be in
racing lane 2. Hence, (a)
