Q1:
Consider the following statements: Statement I: Elderly persons in India often suffer from multiple health conditions requiring complex medication regimes. Which of the following is correct?
Statement II: Polypharmacy in geriatric care improves treatment efficiency and reduces medical complications.
A: Both Statement-I and Statement-II are correct, and Statement-II is the correct explanation for Statement-I.
B: Both Statement-I and Statement-II are correct, but Statement-II is not the correct explanation for Statement-I.
C: Statement-I is correct, but Statement-II is incorrect.
D: Statement-I is incorrect, but Statement-II is correct.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Statement I is valid—elderly individuals often deal with multiple comorbidities, requiring several medications. However, Statement II is incorrect because polypharmacy increases the risk of drug interactions and adverse effects, often complicating rather than improving treatment.
Q2:
Consider the following statements regarding India Justice Report (IJR) 2025: How many of the above statements are correct?
A: Only one
B: Only two
C: All three
D: None
Answer: B
Explanation:
Statements 1 and 3 are correct. The IJR 2025 notes that no State or UT has fulfilled the women’s reservation quota in police, and Delhi, not UP, has the highest undertrial proportion (91%). Tamil Nadu has better prison management, while UP has the most overcrowded prisons, making Statement 2 incorrect.
Q3:
Consider the following directions issued by the Supreme Court in the Pinki v. State of UP case: How many of the above statements are correct?
A: Only one
B: Only two
C: All three
D: None
Answer: B
Explanation:
Statements 1 and 2 are correct as the Supreme Court emphasized a presumption of trafficking in missing children cases and directed strict action against negligent hospitals. However, Statement 3 is incorrect—the Supreme Court actually revoked the bail granted by the Allahabad High Court and ordered the accused to surrender. This decision reflected the seriousness of the charges and the need for a strong legal response to child trafficking networks. The Court’s firm stance underscores the principle that bail should not be granted casually in such grave offenses, especially when minors are involved.
