Q1Consider the following statements in context with a Memorandum of Understanding signed in February 2026 between Rajasthan State Election Commission and the Madhya Pradesh State Election Commission and choose the correct option : A. Under this MoU, a total of 30,000 control units and 60,000 ballot units will be provided by Madhya Pradesh State Election Commission on rent to Rajasthan State Election Commission for local body elections. B. Technical testing of EVMs (FLC), repair and necessary technical support will be carried out by the authorized engineers of CEERI, Pilani.

A Only statement A is correct.
B Only statement B is correct.
C Both the statements A and B are correct.
D Both the statements A and B are wrong.
Explanation

The MoU provided that Madhya Pradesh State Election Commission would rent 30,000 control units and 60,000 ballot units to Rajasthan State Election Commission for local body elections. The same report states that first-level checking, repairs and technical support were to be done by authorised ECIL, Hyderabad engineers, not CEERI, Pilani. Therefore only statement A is correct, so option A is correct.

Q2Which of the following statements are correct with regard to the reorganization of states ? (A) The Indian National Congress promised and recognized the linguistic principle as the basis of formation of states during its Nagpur Session in 1920. (B) Immediately after the independence, Indian leaders felt that carving out states on the basis of language might lead to disruption and disintegration. (C) The first state to be formed on the basis of language was Tamil Nadu in 1952. (D) The States Re-organisation Commission was constituted in 1952 to redraw the boundaries of states. Codes :

A Only (A) and (B) are correct.
B Only (C) and (D) are correct.
C Only (B) and (C) are correct.
D Only (A) and (D) are correct.
Explanation

Statements (A) and (B) are correct: the Congress accepted the linguistic basis at its Nagpur Session in 1920, but after Independence and Partition the leadership feared that language-based states could weaken national unity. Statement (C) is wrong because the first post-Independence linguistic state was Andhra State in 1953, not Tamil Nadu in 1952. Statement (D) is also wrong because the States Reorganisation Commission was appointed in 1953, not 1952; hence A is correct.

Q3The correct sequence of assurances given in the Preamble of Indian Constitution is:

A Justice, Equality, Fraternity, Liberty
B Liberty, Equality, Justice, Fraternity
C Justice, Liberty, Equality, Fraternity
D Equality, Justice, Liberty, Fraternity
Explanation

The Preamble of the Indian Constitution gives the assurances in the sequence: Justice (social, economic and political), Liberty (of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship), Equality (of status and of opportunity), and Fraternity. The correct sequence is Justice → Liberty → Equality → Fraternity, which corresponds to option C.

Q4Who among the following Judges of the Rajasthan High Court has not been the Chief Justice of the High Court of other states ?

A Rajesh Balia
B Prakash Tatia
C N.N. Mathur
D Nagendra Kumar Jain
Explanation

Verified service records show Rajesh Balia became Chief Justice of Patna High Court, Prakash Tatia became Chief Justice of Jharkhand High Court, and Nagendra Kumar Jain served as Chief Justice of Madras and Karnataka High Courts. N.N. Mathur is recorded as a judge of the Rajasthan and Gujarat High Courts and later Vice-Chancellor of National Law University, Jodhpur, but not as Chief Justice of another State's High Court. Therefore option C is correct.

Q5Identify the incorrect statement regarding the provisions of Government of India Act, 1935 :

A His Majesty, represented by the Governor General, was an organ of Federal Legislature.
B The Upper House of Federal Legislature was named as Council of State.
C Governor of a Province was to be appointed by the Governor General.
D It was the discretion of the Governor General to preside at meetings of the Federal Council of Ministers.
Explanation

Under the Government of India Act, 1935, a provincial Governor was appointed by His Majesty, not by the Governor-General. That makes statement C the incorrect statement. Therefore option C is correct.
