Indian constitution has a separate part dealing with the Fundamental Rights of the citizens. In this context, explain the significance of Fundamental Rights. Also, comment on the issue of amendability of the fundamental rights. (10 marks/150 words)
Approach: Brief introduction about Fundamental rights Explain the significance of Fundamental Rights Comment on the amenability of Fundamental rights Conclude briefly Answer: The Fundamental Rights are enshrined in Part III of the Constitution from Articles 12 to 35. Part III of the Constitution is rightly described as the Magna Carta of India. It contains a very long and comprehensive list of ‘justiciable’ Fundamental Rights. Fundamental Rights are protected and Guaranteed by the Constitution and they cannot be taken away by an ordinary law enacted by the legislature.This special privilege is given to Fundamental rights as they are the basic rights guaranteed to all citizens by the constitution. It is significant because: Liberty :-of thought and expressions promote, intellectual, spiritual and physical development of an individual. Individual rights -essential for healthy functioning of democracy. RIght to life (Art 21), education, the abolition of untouchability, Equality code etc, right to privacy. Social Justice -Establishes equality of all citizens, dissolves social hierarchies, upholds individual dignity, furthers equity and prohibits discriminatory practices. RIght to Constitutional Remedy (Article 32)- Prevents the state from becoming arbitrary or authoritarian. Establishes a culture of check and balance and judiciary as the resort for executive misadventure. Equality in opportunity - indifference to ascriptive characteristics in public employment They maintain the larger public interest and unity of the nation . Government of laws and not of men Freedom of the press as deduced from article 19, furthers dissemination of information and helps citizenry hold government of the day responsible for their acts. RIght to education brings to the reach of every child in the age group of 6-14 a chance to avail school education. They are thus called cornerstone of Indian democracy. Evolution of Amendability of the fundamental right The First Amendment Act amended articles 15 and 19 under fundamental rights. It also inserted Ninth Schedule to the Constitution. Shankari Prasad Vs Union Of India: 1 st Amendment was challenged in Shankari Prasad case but the ruling came in favour of Parliament, SC clarified that Parliament has got 2 types of Legislative powers:Ordinary and Constitutional legislative powers. Act of Parliament using ordinary Legislative power will be called law and cannot be used to have an adverse effect on FR because of Article 13(2). However, Act of Parliament under Article 368 will be seen as a constitutional amendment which is not covered in the definition of law as given in Article 13(3) and will thus be not violative of Article 13(2) even if it will have an effect on FR. Court held that through Article 368 Parliament can amend any Part of the constitution including FR. However, in Golaknath V/S state of Punjab case (1967) , SC overruled its earlier decision. It held that the constitution only provides the procedure for amendment under Article 368, but it does not provide the power to Parliament to amend the constitution. Hence, FRs has been given transcendental position by the constitution and no authority functioning under constitution including parliament has the power to amend fundamental right Parliament responded by enacting 24 th Amendment Act, 1971 which amended the title of Article 368, which now read “Procedure and Power to Amend the Constitution” . However, 24 th Amendment was challenged in Keshavananda Bharati V/S state of Kerala, 1973 In Keshavananda Bharati V/S state of Kerala, 1973 , SC held that parliament has the power to amend any provision of the constitution including part 3, however, parliament’s amending power subjects to the Basic structure of the constitution. The final word on the issue of Amendability can be related to ‘Basic Structure’ defined inKesavananda Bharti’s case. In essence Parliament"s power to amend the Fundamental Rights is not absolute and the Supreme Court is the final arbiter over and interpreter of all amendments. "Above all, the fundamental rights part of the Constitution is a salutary reminder that the powers of the state are not unlimited and that human personality is priceless. We need these reminders constantly." (Soli Sorabjee)

Jet streams play a significant role in influencing the climate and weather conditions across the world. Discuss with special reference to the Indian Monsoon. (10 marks/150 words)
APPROACH -Definition of jet streams along with a brief explanation of its types -Explanation of role played by them in influencing the weather conditions across world -Discussion about the role played by them in Indian Monsoon -Substantiate answers with relevant diagrams ANSWER Jetstream is strong and rapidly moving air circulation in a narrow belt of a few hundred kilometers widths in the upper limit of the troposphere. Jet streams form a border between hot and cold air. Because contrast in air temperature influences jet streams, they are more active in winter when there are wider ranges of temperatures between the Arctic and tropic air masses. Both hemispheres have jet streams, although jet streams in the north are more forceful. Each hemisphere has two primary jet streams polar and a subtropical. Polar jet streams form between 50 and 60-degree latitudes. The subtropical jet stream is closer to the equator and within latitudes of 20 to 30 degrees. Circulation of the westerly jet stream is confined between around 20o latitudes and easterly STJ between 15 to 22 degrees. They are supposed to have an immense influence on local and regional weather conditions as follows: • Intensity of mid-latitude (temperate) cyclones - These cyclones become very strong and stormy when upper air tropospheric jet streams are positioned above temperate cyclones of the ground surface. It then yields more precipitation than normal. • Local weather conditions - There are fluctuations in local weather conditions due to changes in form and nature of ground surface cyclones and anticyclones caused by upper air jet streams. Jet streams cause horizontal convergence and divergence in upper troposphere causing anti-cyclones and cyclones respectively. Jet streams generally push air masses around, moving weather systems to new areas. • Global warming - Vertical air circulation causes a rapid rate of mixing of air between troposphere and stratosphere, which helps in transport of anthropogenic pollutants like CFCs from troposphere to stratosphere. Indian monsoon is greatly influenced by jet streams. Sub-Tropical Jet (STJ) stream plays a significant role in both hindering monsoon winds as well as in quick onset of monsoons. Role in Indian Monsoon: Mechanism of Weather in the Winter Season Jet streams blow across the Asian continent at latitudes north of the Himalayas roughly parallel to the Tibetan highlands. Tibetan highlands act as a barrier in the path of these jet streams. As a result, jet streams get bifurcated. One of its branches blows to the north of the Tibetan highlands, while the southern branch blows in an eastward direction, south of the Himalayas. It has its mean position at 25°N in February at 200-300 mb level. This southern branch of the jet stream exercises an important influence on the winter weather in India. The western cyclonic disturbances which enter the Indian subcontinent from the west and the northwest during the winter months originate over the Mediterranean Sea and are brought into India by the westerly jet stream. An increase in the prevailing night temperature generally indicates an advance in the arrival of these cyclones disturbances. Mechanism of Weather in the Summer Season An easterly jet stream flows over the southern part of the Peninsula in June, and has a maximum speed of 90 km per hour. In August, it is confined to 15oN latitude, and in September up to 22o N latitudes.The easterlies normally do not extend to the north of 30o N latitude in the upper atmosphere. The easterly jet stream steers the tropical depressions into India. These depressions play a significant role in the distribution of monsoon rainfall over the Indian subcontinent. The tracks of these depressions are the areas of highest rainfall in India. The frequency at which these depressions visit India, their direction and intensity, all go a long way in determining the rainfall pattern during the southwest monsoon period.

Discuss the various causes for poverty in India. How can this problem of poverty be addressed? (150 words)(10 Marks)
APPROACH Briefly discuss poverty in India with some facts and figures. Mention causes of poverty Reform measures to address the problem of poverty Conclude briefly. ANSWER The UN Human Rights Council has defined poverty as “A human condition characterized by the sustained or chronic deprivation of the resources, capabilities, choices, security and power necessary for the enjoyment of an adequate standard of living and other civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights”. The conditions of poverty in India has shown considerable improvements, absolute poverty rate has reduced from 65% at the time of independence to 21% in the present day. But despite this, it is still gigantic in numbers.World Bank estimates that 30% of the global poor reside in India with 140 million living in extreme poverty. The causes for poverty- • Faith in GDP growth and Reality- Growth is not inclusive. Growth does not lead to people empowerment. • Climatic Factors- Hot and humid climate limits physical work capability. Also, a cause for poor health. • Rising Population- Burden on limited resources. • Education and Unemployment • Social Factors(Caste, Tradition ,Customs)- causing historic exclusion • Destruction of Traditional Industry- leading to loss of employment. • Low Agricultural Productivity • Unequal Distribution of Land Reform measures to address the problem of poverty • Land Reforms- regularization and redistribution • Education Reforms- literacy and skill development • Generation of Employment- promoting both self employment and wage employment • Healthcare Reforms- increasing expenditure on public health • Human Development Initiatives • Creation of Social Infrastructure • High Rate of Inclusive GDP Growth Rate • Direct Attack on poverty- Poverty Alleviation programs and Special Area development Programs The government of India has been taking various steps to reduce poverty like The Food Security Act, MGNREGA etc. Sustainable and inclusive growth can be achieved only when poverty is eradicated.

Whereas the British planters had developed tea gardens all along the Shivaliks and Lesser Himalayas from Assam to Himachal Pradesh, in effect they did not succeed beyond the Darjelling area. Explain. (200 words)
Approach: Different aspects of the role of Himalayas have to be given one by one. The last part of the answer should be specifically about Climate as asked in the question (Most of the content of the answer has been directly picked up from the class notes.) Answer: The Great Himalayasare the most prominent features of India"s physiography. They play the following role in the Indian subcontinent: - Geological- They give the Indian subcontinent it"s continental character to India separating it from the rest of the continent. - Political- they form the northernmost extent of the country along which the political boundaries are defined. -Strategic- They aid in the defence of the country against it"s neighbours and act as a strategic barrier. - Drainage- It the source of all major rivers of the country called the Himalayan rivers. - Northern Plains- It is the Himalaya which bring water and alluvial soil which is a source of the fertility of the region -Resources- It is a good source of minerals which can be extracted eg. coal, copper, cobalt, nickel. -Agriculture- This region is known for its temperate grains and large-scale production of fruits. -Transport- Despite being a physical barrier, it provides transport through its numerous passes. -Energy- High energy potential such as solar energy, geothermal energy and hydroelectricity can be extracted from the region. -Biodiversity- It is rich in both flora and fauna. -Tourism- It is famous for various tourist destinations and is an important economic activity in the region. It has the most profound impact on defining the climate of the Indian sub-continent: -They impact the movement of jet streams, local winds along with monsoon. -They protect the region from the climate of the Siberian or Tibetian region, preventing India from becoming a cold desert. -Different types of climate in the Himalayan region give us a wide variety of vegetation thus contributing to itsrich biodiversity- from polar to tropical vegetation and fauna. Thus we can say the Himalayas have a very significant role in the Indian subcontinent impacting all the major aspects of life.

Discuss the reasons for the abolition of the Planning Commission. In this context, explain the difference between NITI Aayog and Planning Commission. (150 words/10marks)
Approach:- A brief introduction to the Planning Commission and NITI Aayog. Mention the reasons behind the abolition of the Planning commission Differentiate between PC and NITI Aayog Conclude accordingly Answer:- The Planning Commission which was established in 1950, worked till 2014 and formulated twelve five-year plans. But an internal evaluation in Government revealed that Planning Commission was witnessing policy fatigue necessitating structural changes in the central planning process. In place of PC, NITI Aayog was established in 2015. It has been entrusted with the mandate of re-imagining the development agenda by dismantling old-style central planning. Key issues in Planning Commission are as follows: 1. Top-down approach: With changing times the relevance of planned economy and thus the planning commission itself became questionable. In an era of an open and globalized economy, the relevance of top-down 5-year plans became less relevant. 2. One size fits all: The contemporary world is governed by constitutional ethos like federalism rather than centralization. But PC failed to meet the diverse needs of different states/UTs due to its one size fit all approach. 3. Undermined Federalism: Plans have to be formulated by fulfilling the aspirations of states by tailoring the plans to suit their needs and requirements. Planning Commission was an extra-constitutional body, which over the period of time, assumed the role of super-cabinet. 4. Undermined Finance Commission: It held considerable sway over the economic policies of the center and state. Hence, it was also accused of encroaching upon the role of the constitutional body Finance Commission, as about 30% of total central transfers to the state were through Planning Commission. 5. Bureaucratization: Over the time, Planning Commission evolved into a bureaucratic and hierarchical body, not playing its due role of being an advisory body to the government. Difference between NITI Aayog and Planning Commission 1. Organization: Planning Commission had a deputy chairperson, a member secretary, and full-time members. Secretaries or member secretaries are appointed by the usual process. NITI Aayog has new posts of CEO of secretary rank and Vice-Chairperson. It also has five full-time members and two part-time members. Four cabinet ministers serve as ex-officio members. CEO is appointed directly by Prime Minister. 2. Planning: The planning commission goes for top-down planning for government with public sector resources. NITI Aayog formulates a national development strategy in a market economy integrated with the globalized world. 3. Relation with states: The planning commission was a central government institution and had no representation of state government. There was no structural mechanism for interaction with states. NITI Aayog provides a partnership with state governments to promote cooperative federalism. It provides a platform for structured and regular interaction with states. 4. Finance: The role of the Finance Commission was greatly reduced with the formation of the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission decided the allocation of funds. NITI Aayog doesn’t have any role in fund allocation. Finance ministry to decide the share of taxes to states, fund allocation to CSS, and Union assistance to the state plan. 5. Constitution and Reporting: Planning Commission- The commission reported to National Development Council that had State Chief Ministers and Lieutenant governors. Niti Aayog- Governing Council has State Chief Ministers and Lieutenant Governors.

The position of Indian President is that of influence but not power. Critically analyse. (10 marks/150 words)
APPROACH -Brief introduction about President -Discussion on the different views on the position of President -Brief Conclusion ANSWER India is a parliamentary system where President is the nominal executive. But his position is explained in different aspects as follows: Constitutional Provision (Article 74): Constitution has given elaborate powers to the Indian President. In fact, every Executive action of the Union Government is taken under his name. However, a deeper look at the meaning of Article 74 makes us understand that whatever powers President has, he exercises those powers as per the aid and advice of the CoM and only in rare situations he exercises his discretion. Also, Constitution explicitly hasn’t given discretionary powers to the President. Judicial Pronouncements: SC in various cases (Shamsher Singh, RC Cooper) clarified the position of the Indian president and explained that since India follows a parliamentary form of government, the president has to be only a nominal head and the real powers are vested in the CoM headed by PM. Also wherever, the constitution says that it is the satisfaction of the President, it is not his personal satisfaction but rather the satisfaction of CoM. SC also clarified that all the decisions of the units taken in the name of the president, are actually the decisions of the CoM. From the perspective of the judiciary, the Indian President is more of a nominal head without having many powers. Views of Constitution makers: Dr Ambedkar opined that India followed a parliamentary system where the Head of the State has to act as per the advice of the CoM. So Indian president must go as per the directions of the CoM. Thus not a powerful office. However, Dr Rajendra Prasad had a different view regarding the power and position of the Indian president as he said that we cannot go exactly the British way because, in Britain, the Head of the State (Monarch) is the hereditary ruler who is not the case in India where President comes to office after winning an election. Former President V.V. Giri also suggested that today"s political parties aggressively campaign their men to become the president which itself is proof that this office must be having many powers provided the right person occupies it. Pt. Nehru also didn’t want a mechanized president who is completely controlled by the CoM. Actual Functioning of President: Within the limited powers, there have been presidents who have asserted themselves in the favour of Constitution and its values, called activist Presidents. For eg. Dr Rajendra Prasad refused to sign an emergency in Kerala (1959), proving that he’s not merely a rubber stamp. President Zail Singh used the pocket veto to kill Indian Post Office Amendment Bill1986, thus single-handedly safeguarding the privacy of people. KR Narayan sent back the advice of CoM regarding emergencies in UP and Bihar in 1997 and 1998. Thus saving federalism. Dr APJ Kalam on the office of profit (NDC), Pranab Mukherjee on the misuse of ordinances. However, there have been Presidents who are referred to as PMs presidents because they didn’t assert much against the views of govt. even if controversial. Explaining the importance of the office of President, former President R Venkatraman remarked that the Indian President is like an emergency lamp who is not assertive or dominant in normal situations, but in periods of crisis he takes charge and provides light in situations of darkness (eg. Shankar Dayal Sharma, Zail Singh etc.) Thus the position of the President is as powerful as the incumbent makes it, with limited power and substantial influence.

दृष्टिकोण: भूमिका में मेघ को परिभाषित कीजिए| प्रथम भाग में मेघों के बनने की प्रक्रिया की चर्चा कीजिए| द्वितीय भाग में मेघों के विभिन्न प्रकारों की चर्चा कीजिए| तृतीय भाग में मौसम पूर्वानुमान में मेघों की भूमिका स्पष्ट करते हुए उत्तर समाप्त कीजिए| उत्तर: आकाश में होने वाले जलकणों का वह दृश्य रूप जो हवा में वाष्प के जमने के फलस्वरूप बनता है, मेघ कहलाता है| मेघों का निर्माण: जब आरोहित वायु की रुद्धोष्म ताप पतन दर समीपस्थ वायु की ताप पतन दर से कम हो तो वायु अस्थिर होकर निरंतर ऊपर उठ कर ठंडी होती जाती है तथा इसमें ओसांक के बाद संघनन प्रारम्भ हो जाता है। जब संघनन हिमांक के ऊपर सम्पन्न होता है तो जल सीकरों (Water droplets) का तथा जब हिमांक के नीचे सम्पन्न होता है तो हिम सीकरों का निर्माण होता है। इनका आकार धीरे-धीरे बढ़ता जाता है तथा अधिक मात्रा में हो जाने पर इनका समूह मेघों की रचना करता है। मेघों के प्रकार: उच्च मेघ: ये मेघ मुख्य रूप से हिम क्रिस्टल के बने होते हैं। यह मुख्यतः तीन प्रकार के होते है: पक्षाभ मेघ (Cirrus clouds): पक्षाभ मेघों का निर्माण 6,000 से 12,000 मीटर की ऊँचाई पर होता है।अधिक ऊँचाई पर होने के साथ ये महीन तथा बिखरे हुए, रेशम सदृश्य होते हैं, जो पंख के समान प्रतीत होते हैं। पक्षाभ स्तरी (Cirro-stratus) मेघ: ये श्वेत वर्ण के होते है तथा इनसे दिन में सूर्य और रात्रि में चंद्रमा के चारों ओर प्रभामंडल (Halo) का निर्माण होता है। पक्षाभ कपासी (Cirro-cumulus) मेघ: ये प्रायः छायाहीन होते हैं। इन्हें मैकेरल स्काई (mackerel sky) भी कहा जाता है। मध्यम ऊंचाई के मेघ: इस श्रेणी के अंतर्गत मध्य कपासी मेघ (Altocumulus) तथा मध्य स्तरी मेघ (Alto-stratus) सम्मिलित है। मध्य स्तरी (Alto-stratus) मेघ: ये आकाश में लगातार फैले नीले तथा भूरे रंग के मेघ होते हैं। आकाश में सघन चादर के रूप में होते हैं। इनसे विस्तृत तथा निरंतर वर्षा होती है। मध्य कपासी (Alto-cumulus) मेघ: ये गोलाकार रूप में पंक्तियों या लहरों में पाए जाते हैं। निचले स्तर पर होने के कारण, ये मुख्य रूप से जल बूंदों से बने होते हैं। हालांकि, जब तापमान काफी न्यून हो तो ये हिम क्रिस्टल के भी बने हो सकते हैं। यह रुई के समान दिखते हैं। निम्न ऊंचाई के मेघ: ये अधिकतर जल बूंदों से बने होते हैं क्योंकि उनका आधार आमतौर पर 2,000 मीटर से नीचे होता है। हालांकि, जब तापमान न्यून हो जाता है तो इन मेघों में हिम कण और हिम भी हो सकते हैं। इस श्रेणी के अंतर्गत स्तरी (Stratus), स्तरी कपासी (Strato-cumulus) तथा वर्षा स्तरी (Nimbo-stratus) मेघ सम्मिलित है। स्तरी (Stratus) मेघ: ये निम्नस्तरीय, परतदार मेघ होते हैं। ये प्रायः 2,000 मीटर से कम ऊँचाई पर निर्मित होते हैं तथा आकाश के एक बड़े भाग पर फैले होते हैं। स्तरी कपासी (Strato-cumulus) मेघ: हल्के भूरे तथा बड़े-बड़े गोलाकार चकत्तों के रूप में पाए जाते है। वर्षा स्तरी (Nimbo-stratus) मेघ: धरातल के निकट पाये जाने वाले ये मेघ अत्यधिक सघन होते हैं तथा इनसे खूब वर्षा होती है। ऊर्ध्वाधर विकास वाले मेघ: ऊर्ध्वाधर विस्तार से बने मेघों के निचले भाग जल बूंदों तथा ऊपरी भाग हिमकणों से निर्मित होते है। इस प्रकार के मेघों में निम्न सम्मिलित हैं : कपासी (Cumulus) मेघ कपासी मेघ में प्रायः साफ़ मौसम का आभास होता है। परन्तु कभी-कभी इनमें गरजने वाले मेघ भी होते हैं। कपासी वर्षा (Cumulo-nimbus) मेघ इस प्रकार के मेघ में सबसे प्रचलित कपासी मेघ है। यह तापीय संवहन या वताग्र के ऊपर उठने से निर्मित होता है। यह 12,000 मीटर से अधिक ऊँचाई तक उठ सकते हैं। इससे मेघ में विद्यमान जल वाष्प के संघनन द्वारा अत्यधिक मात्रा में ऊर्जा विसर्जित होती है। कपासी-वर्षा मेघ अत्यधिक गहरे और विस्तृत होते हैं। इनके साथ वर्षा, ओला तथा तड़ित-झंझा की अधिक संभावना रहती है। मौसम पूर्वानुमान में मेघों की भूमिका: पक्षाभ मेघ जब आकाश में पृथक्- पृथक् तथा अनियमित क्रम में फैले होते हैं, तो इनसे स्वच्छ मौसम की पूर्व सूचना मिलती है, किन्तु जब ये नियमित क्रम में पक्षाभ-स्तरी अथवा स्तरी मध्य मेघों के साथ दिखाई पड़ते हैं तो ये चक्रवात आगमन के सूचक होते हैं। चक्रवात आगमन के क्रम में पक्षाभ मेघ के तुरंत बाद यही मेघ दृष्टिगोचर होते हैं। वर्षा स्तरी मेघ धरातल के निकट पाये जाते हैं| यह मेघ अत्यधिक सघन होते हैं तथा इनसे खूब वर्षा होती है। कपासी-वर्षा मेघ अत्यधिक गहरे और विस्तृत होते हैं। इनके साथ वर्षा, ओला तथा तड़ित-झंझा की अधिक संभावना रहती है। इस प्रकार मेघों के विभिन्न प्रकार आगामी मौसम के बारे में महत्वपूर्ण जानकारी देते हैं जिससे मौसम पूर्वानुमान में सहायता मिलती है साथ ही आमजन को समय रहते अपनी रणनीति बनाने में भी इससे मदद मिलती है|

Differences in attitude towards slavery can be seen as the root cause of the American civil war. In this context explain the factors which led to the outbreak of the American civil war. (150 words/10 Marks )
Approach : Introduce an answer by highlighting the importance of the American Civil War. Explain the practice of slavery Discuss differentviewpoint regarding slave practice that led to civil war. Answer : The Civil War is the central event in America"s historical consciousness. While the Revolution of 1776-1783 created the United States, the Civil War of 1861-1865 determined what kind of nation it would be. Slavery is a system in which principles of property law are applied to people, allowing individuals to own, buy and sell other individuals. A slave is unable to withdraw unilaterally from such an arrangement and works without remuneration. The issue of slavery was one of the main issues of contention: The southern states were basically agricultural in nature and needed slaves ( usually bought in Africa ) to work on the fields. Holding on to the slaves was also a symbol of social status. Thus the Southern states were in favour of upholding slavery. The northern states, on the other hand, were not dependent on agriculture. They were the industrialized parts of America and thus needed free reliable labour for the industries. They also needed consumers for their goods and freeing up slaves would open a big pool of consumers for their goods and services. They thus opposed slavery as it dented the claims of a progressive society. Along with this conflict, there were other issues which led to the American civil war - 1. Economic Disparity between Northern and Southern States - Northern states were industrialized while southern states where primarily agricultural. - Northern states wanted a tax on imports from Britain while southern states wanted tax-free trade with Britain. (not discussed in class) 2. An issue with the attitude towards slavery - Industrialized northern states preferred paid labourers while agricultural southern states which had large plantations were dependent on slave labour. - Slavery was abolished in northern states in 1804 and they became ‘free states’. 3. The fear of reforms by Abraham Lincoln and his election campaign - He promised to abolish slavery and was thus supported by the northern states. After his victory, he actually took the cause of the slaves and granted freedom to them under the law. 4. Southern declared secession from the American union in a response to the election. This ultimately led to the civil war between the northern and southern states. With the end of the war, the slave trade had also ended. Along with this it also gave impetus to the economic development of the southern states and their industrialisation.
