Previous Year Question Patterns

Year Marks Question Sub-area
2023 2 Define 'sexual abuse' under the Domestic Violence Act Definition — Section 3

Pattern observations:

  1. Only 2-mark definitional Q so far — 2026 new pattern has no 2-mark Qs, so 5-mark contextual Qs expected.
  2. High probability Q: Explain Protection Order under PWDVA 2005 / Right to reside in shared household / Role of Protection Officer.
  3. Live-in relationship coverage likely since it is the most socially significant provision.
  4. Landmark case (Satish Ahuja 2020) overruling S.R. Batra is examinable.
