Consider the following statements regarding Comptroller & Auditor General In India. Which of the following are incorrect ?
CAG doesn’t have powers to audit any private sector companies under Companies act.
Supreme Court of India has expanded the scope of jurisdiction of CAG recently where he got the right to audit the receipts of private sector companies that share revenue with the government for use of spectrum.
The CAG is removed from office in like manner and on the like grounds as a judge of either High Court or Supreme Court of India.
CAG doesn’t have powers to audit any private sector companies under Companies act.
Statement C is incorrect because CAG is removed on the grounds as a Judge of Supreme Court in India. Art 149 of the Constitution empowers CAG to audit the accounts of Union, States and other bodies as prescribed by any law of parliament. Accordingly, CAG audits following accounts: Consolidated funds of Union, States and UT with legislative assemblies Contingency and Public Accounts of Union and States Departmental undertakings, Government companies and other bodies financed by Union or State. The SC verdict has expanded the scope of Art.149 in following manner: Natural resources such as spectrum, oil, gas and minerals- belong to people. Whenever Union, State, Local bodies or private entities are exploiting natural resources, they’re accountable to people via Parliament. Although CAG doesn’t have powers to audit any private sector companies under Companies act. But when private sector is exploiting natural resources under PPP or revenue sharing agreements, every unlawful gain by company is a loss to consolidated fund of India. Therefore, CAG has right to audit the receipts of private sector companies that share revenue with the government for use of spectrum.

As per the Anti-defection law, a member of a house belonging to any political party does not get disqualified from being a member of the house if:
If a nominated member of the house joins any political party after expiry of six months from his date of joining the house.
If he abstains from voting in such house contrary to any direction issued by the party.
If a member after being elected as the presiding officer of the house, voluntarily gives up the membership of his party or rejoins it.
If a nominated member of the house joins any political party after expiry of six months from his date of joining the house.
A Presiding officer, Speaker in case of Lok Sabha or deputy chairperson in case of Rajya Sabha should be a non-partisan person, hence it is under compulsion that he has to sever his/her party ties, so he is given a relaxation in terms of making choice for joining or not joining her party again after leaving the presiding office.

In the context of Indian freedom struggle, the Berlin Committee for Indian Independence was established in order to:
incite rebellion among Indian troops there and to even organize an armed invasion of British India to liberate the country.
send emissaries to negotiate with the British by seeking help from the German Foreign office.
convince members of the congress to compromise for a dominion under the British.
incite rebellion among Indian troops there and to even organize an armed invasion of British India to liberate the country.
The Berlin Committee for Indian Independence was established in 1915 by Virendranath Upadhyay, Bhupendranath Dutta and Lala Hardayal under Zimmerman Plan. These revolutionaries mobilised the Indian settlers abroad to send volunteers and arms to India to incite rebellion among Indian troops there and to even organize an armed invasion of British India to liberate the country. The Indian revolutionaries in Europe sent missions to Baghdad, Persia, Turkey and Kabul to work among Indian troops and the Indian prisoners of war (POWs) and to incite anti-British feelings among the people of these countries. One mission under Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh Barkatullah and Obaidullah Sindhi went to Kabul to organize a provisional Indian government there with the help of crown prince.

Provinces were called as suba. These provinces were divided into sarkars which were further divided into pargana. The head of the provincial administration was the governor (subadar) who reported directly to the emperor. Hence, statement 2 is not correct. The local administration was looked after at the level of the pargana (sub-district) by three semi-hereditary officers, the qanungo (keeper of revenue records), the chaudhuri (in charge of revenue collection) and the qazi. Persian was made the language of administration throughout, but local languages were used for village accounts. The Amin was in charge of collection of the land revenue in pargana. Hence, statement 3 is correct. The head of military department was called mir bakshi. The mir bakshi was also the head of the intelligence and information agencies of the empire. Hence statement 1 is correct .

The purpose of Article 32 is to provide a guaranteed, effective, quick and inexpensive remedy for the protection of the fundamental rights. Only the Fundamental Rights guaranteed by the Constitution can be enforced under Article 32 and not any other non-fundamental rights. Article 32 cannot be invoked simply to determine the constitutionality of an executive order or a legislation unless it directly infringes any of the fundamental rights. Moreover, in case of the enforcement of Fundamental. Rights, the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is original but not exclusive. It is concurrent with the jurisdiction of the high court under Article 226. It means when the Fundamental Rights of a citizen are violated, the aggrieved party has the option of moving either the high court or the Supreme Court directly. Hence, both the statements are wrong.

To increase export competitiveness of the domestic industry.
To discourage imports in some specific sectors of the domestic industry.
To provide level-playing field to the domestic industry.
To increase export competitiveness of the domestic industry.
Countervailing duties are the tariffs levied on imported goods to offset subsidies made to producers of goods in the exporting country. Countervailing duties (CVD) are meant to level the playing field between domestic producers of a product and foreign producers of the same product who can afford to sell it at a lower price because of the subsidy they receive from their government. The definition of “subsidy” in this regard is quite broad. It includes any financial contribution made by a government or government agency, including a direct transfer of funds (such as grants, loans and infusion of equity), potential direct transfer of funds (for example, loan guarantees), fiscal incentives such as tax credits, and any form of income or price support.

The Ghadar movement's weakness was that it under-estimated the strength of British in India- both their armed and organisational might as well as ideological foundations of their rule. As a result, they under-estimated the extent and amount of preparation at every level which was necessary before an armed revolt could be organised. Though majority of leaders and most participants were drawn from the Sikhs, the movement itself was strongly secular in nature - its leaders were drawn from various religions - Lala Hardayal was a Hindu, Barkatullah was a Muslim, Rash Behari Ghose was a Bengali Hindu, etc; publications were secular and set out to create secular consciousness amongst Punjabis. Their defence of religious interest was part of cultural defence against colonialism and not an aspect of communalism. Chief Khalsa Diwan proclaimed its loyalty to the sovereign and declared the Ghadarites to 'fallen Sikhs' and criminals and helped the government to track them down.
