Practice questions

Q1Consider the following statements: 1. Part IX of the Constitution did not automatically apply to Scheduled Areas because Article 243M provided exceptions. 2. The PESA Act, 1996 extended panchayat principles to Fifth Schedule areas with protective modifications. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A 1 only
B 2 only
C Neither 1 nor 2
D Both 1 and 2
Explanation

Both statements are correct. Article 243M kept Scheduled Areas outside the automatic operation of Part IX. PESA was therefore enacted to carry panchayat principles into Fifth Schedule areas while retaining safeguards suited to tribal community institutions.

Q2Consider the following statements about labour organisation and constitutional protection: 1. The All India Trade Union Congress was founded in Bombay in 1920, with Lala Lajpat Rai as its first president. 2. The Trade Unions Act, 1926 gave registration and legal status to unions that had already begun to emerge. 3. Article 43A was inserted by the 42nd Amendment, 1976, and promotes worker participation in management. Select the correct answer using the code given below.

A 1 and 2 only
B 1, 2 and 3
C 2 and 3 only
D 1 and 3 only
Explanation

All three statements are correct. AITUC was founded in Bombay in 1920 under its first president, Lala Lajpat Rai. Labour organisation predated the Trade Unions Act, which supplied registration and legal recognition. Article 43A came through the 42nd Amendment, 1976, and addresses worker participation in management.
