Directions (6-10): Five statements are given below, labelled a, b, c, d and e. Among these, four statements are in logical order and form a coherent paragraph. From the given options, choose the option that does not fit into the theme of the paragraph.

 

  1. (a) At a time when there was compelling need for a bold and path-breaking budget to bring relief to tens of millions of people adversely affected by demonetization,

(b) Yet another area where it was relatively easy to provide relief was in increasing the allocation for providing pensions to elderly people from weaker sections, including widows and disabled people.

  1. (a) The reference in the Union Budget to new elimination targets for some major communicable diseases barely hints at the enormous burden carried by millions in India with tuberculosis, kala-azar, filariasis, leprosy and measles.

(b) It would appear incongruous that an emerging economy with no timetable for universal health coverage and a lack of political will to loosen its purse strings for higher government expenditure has set ambitious deadlines to rid itself of deadly scourges.

(c) The promise of a well-funded five-year scheme to meet the TB challenge beginning in 2017 is welcome, although steady progress towards the new elimination deadline of 2025 will also depend on improved capabilities in the health system to meet the daily drugs requirement and a feeling of ownership at the State level.

(e) Having set concrete goals, the Centre must now demonstrate its seriousness by moving away from the flawed policies of the past.

Answer & Explanation

  1. (a) For me there are two Kolkatas.

(b) Thirty years I walked its winding streets, drank its sweet milky tea and breathed its acetic air, happily and with gusto.

(c) The Kolkata I lived in thirty years ago and the Kolkata I now visit. In fact, the Kolkata I grew up in had a different name, Calcutta.

(d) I lived in succession in Mechua Bazar, College Street, Ballygunj and Alipore – the first two in modest areas, and the last two, especially the last, in elite environs.

(e) A breathtaking variety of cuisine, Indian and Indianized western food, offers the gourmand a tantalizing temptation.

Answer & Explanation
Ans. e

  1. (a) The protests that have convulsed Romania are the largest since the fall of communism in the country in 1989.

(b) The move has impressed neither the citizens of Romania, nor European Union officials in Brussels.

(c)When Romania joined the EU in 2007, the precondition of membership — strict enforcement of the rule of law — sat uneasily with the realities on the ground.

(d) The popular outcry against such a blatant move to relax the rules should have been anticipated by the government, especially as it had a direct bearing on the Social Democratic Party (PSD), which heads the current coalition.

(e) Hundreds of thousands of Romanians have taken to the streets against the government’s attempt to decriminalise graft involving sums below a certain threshold, ostensibly for practical reasons.

Answer & Explanation
Ans. c

Exp. Option (c) is not a part of coherent paragraph. Other options are telling us about the protests in Romania while Option(c) which is though a part of the same article is of different timeline and thus is irrelevant to the theme of this paragraph. Hence option (c) is true.

Answer & Explanation
Ans. a

Exp.  Only option (a) is a correct choice as other options are forming a coherent paragraph and their logical sequence is cbed. Option (a) cannot come after option (d) hence is the correct choice.
