Read the given passage and answer the questions.
David Bell would like lunch. No specific agenda. Seriously? I’ve known David for 20 years and he always has an agenda. He is an agent of influence with two intersecting roles: director for people at Pearson which owns the Financial Times and non-sitting chairman of the FT. I’ve never been entirely clear on how that all works. In power, but rarely in the office, I guess. If he’s come from London to New York to see me, something’s up.
We meet at Remy’s, an Italian restaurant tucked away on 53rd Street, just across the road from our New York headquarters at 1330 Avenue of the Americas. That’s the skyscraper with the pink FT logo slapped on top to mark the moment, back in 1999, when we arrived in force in Manhattan to take on the giants of American media. I found the FT’s US invasion inspiring. We were the scrappy underdogs determined to make our numbers count. I was less convinced by the marketing campaign led by Ghostbusters star Dan Aykroyd cruising down Sixth Avenue on a pink motorbike.
David is wearing his usual rumpled dark suit, white shirt and tie. Chumminess is off the menu today, replaced by a studied formality. ‘Well, you’ve got the job,’ he says, extending a plump hand across the table. ‘Congratulations!’
Editor of the Financial Times. It takes a few seconds to grasp that I’ve been handed one of the best jobs in world journalism. My mind flashes to my late father Frank who grew up in Leeds and left school at fifteen knowing that all he ever wanted to be was a newspaperman. Journalism wasn’t a job, he used to tell me, it was a vocation. That’s how I feel about the FT. I’ve had a wonderfully stimulating career as a reporter and foreign correspondent. I never planned to be the editor. I don’t even have an economics degree, but I do know the craft of journalism. At 50, I feel, in my bones, that all my earlier roles as a reporter, news editor and manager have built to this moment. I’m ready to take on the top job.

Read the following passage and answer the following questions.
The Atal Bhujal Yojana (Atal Jal), India's central sector water conservation scheme, will continue for an additional two years beyond its original 2025 end date, according to a decision made on Friday by the National Level Steering Committee (NLSC). The extension aims to make up for implementation delays due to COVID-19 and to further community behaviour change initiatives.
Initially launched in 2020, Atal Jal is active across 8,220 water-stressed Gram Panchayats within 80 districts of seven Indian states, including Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh. It has focused on driving community behavioural change towards conservation and smart water management.
In addition to conservation efforts, the scheme also encourages innovative irrigation techniques to enhance water efficiency. Pankaj Kumar, Secretary of the Department of Water Resources, called on the states to map drinking water sources and study their sustainability.
The World Bank's Practice Manager lauded Atal Jal for its significant role in promoting water use efficiency and pledged full support for the scheme. The scheme has already seen the adoption of various successful practices across the participating states, focusing on groundwater recharge and demand-side interventions.
Atal Jal also seeks to unite various line departments working on water issues to maximize resource utilization. The scheme plans to bring 450,000 hectares of irrigated area under efficient water techniques like drip irrigation and crop diversification. The project's performances will be measured through pre-set targets, with states performing well eligible for additional funding incentives.

Read the passage below and answer the following questions.
Cheating is considered a criminal offence under the Indian Penal Code. It is done to gain profit or advantage from another person by using some deceitful means. The person who deceives another knows for the fact that it would place the other person in an unfair situation. Cheating as an offence can be made punishable under Section 420 of the IPC. Scope of Section 415 Cheating is defined under Section 415 of the Indian Penal Code as whoever fraudulently or dishonestly deceives a person to induce that person to deliver a property to any person or to consent to retain any property. If a person intentionally induces a person to do or omit to do any act which he would not have done if he was not deceived to do so and the act has caused harm to that person in body, mind, reputation, or property, then the person who fraudulently, dishonestly or intentionally induced the other person is said to cheat. Any dishonest concealment of facts that can deceive a person to do an act that he would not have done otherwise is also cheating within the meaning of this section. Essential Ingredients of Cheating requires deception of any person. Fraudulently or dishonestly inducing that person to deliver any property to any person or to consent that any person shall retain any property, or intentionally inducing a person to do or omit to do anything which he would not do or omit if he were not so deceived, and the act or omission causes or is likely to cause damage or harm to that person in body, mind, reputation or property.
Deceit– a tort arising from an untrue or false statement of facts which are made by a person, recklessly or knowingly, with an intention that it shall be acted upon by the other person, who would suffer damages as a result.
Fraud – a false or untrue representation of the fact, that is made with the knowledge of its falsity or without the belief in its truth or a reckless statement that may or may not be true, with an intention to induce a person or individual to act independent of it with the result that the person acts on it and suffer damages and harm. In other words, it is a wrong act or criminal deception with an intention to result in financial or personal gain.

Study the following information carefully and answer the related questions.
Populism, as defined by political scientist Francis Fukuyama, is characterized by three key features. Firstly, populists adopt economic policies that provide immediate satisfaction to voters but ultimately prove to be unsustainable in the long term. They heavily rely on personal charisma and direct connections with the people, leading them to harbour suspicions towards institutions, which they often attempt to undermine.
Another defining characteristic of populists is their exclusionary approach towards defining "the people." Typically, populists refer to a specific subset of the nation's population, thereby excluding racial or religious minorities. Additionally, contemporary populists tend to have strained relationships with traditional metropolitan elites, including gatekeepers in the legacy media. This is evident in instances where politicians like Trump frequently denounce "fake news," or when the London media dismisses Boris Johnson as an unscrupulous and unfit clown for high office.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi effortlessly meets these populist criteria. His economic policies heavily rely on welfare schemes to bolster his popularity. In many regions of India, it is challenging to find a voter who has not personally benefited from one of Modi's schemes or is not connected to someone who has. The list of freebies and subsidies offered by Modi's government includes toilets, houses, cooking gas, light bulbs, bank accounts, small business loans, and health insurance, to name just a few.
Indeed, Modi's policies have generated a sense of satisfaction among voters, as evidenced by his resounding re-election earlier this year. However, questions arise regarding the sustainability of these policies. Economic growth has dwindled to a meagre 4.5%, the fiscal deficit has swelled, and aggressive tax collection practices have driven businesses into seclusion. It is difficult to envision how these circumstances contribute to long-term sustainability.
Modi undeniably possesses the raw political charisma that characterizes successful populists. This has fostered a cult-like following among many of his supporters. Despite espousing different views on privatization, deficit-financed welfare spending, or the need for simplified taxation for years, their allegiance to Modi takes precedence, both emotionally and practically. What Modi does aligns with what they believe in.
16. According to the passage, which of the following statements best illustrates a paradox?
A) Populist leaders rely on personal charisma but are also suspicious of institutions.
B) Populist leaders often denounce fake news but have strained relationships with the legacy media.
C) Populist leaders adopt unsustainable economic policies to satisfy voters in the short term.
D) Populist leaders focus on welfare schemes while maintaining strong relationships with traditional elites.
17. According to the passage, what can be inferred about contemporary populists' relationships with traditional metropolitan elites?
A) Populists collaborate closely with traditional metropolitan elites to enhance their policies.
B) Populists maintain a harmonious relationship with the legacy media to gain their support.
C) Populists often clash with traditional metropolitan elites, particularly in matters of media portrayal.
D) Populists work together with elites to establish institutions that cater to specific subsets of the population.
18. Given the information in the passage, which unmentioned premise forms the basis for the relationship between Prime Minister Narendra Modi's policies and his garnered popularity?
A) The opposition parties have failed to propose alternative policies that resonate with the voters.
B) Economic challenges are exclusive to countries that adopt populist policies.
C) Modi's policies have been free of criticism from international political commentators.
D) Voter satisfaction is directly proportional to the extent of unsustainable economic policies.
19. What are the defining characteristics of populism, as discussed in the passage?
A) Populists focus on fostering good relationships with traditional metropolitan elites.
B) Populists base their policies on sustainable long-term economic strategies.
C) Populists exclude certain segments of the population when defining "the people."
D) Populists rely on complex economic policies to ensure national growth.
20. Which of the following statements would weaken the argument presented in the passage about the sustainability of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's economic policies?
A) The majority of voters who benefited from Modi's welfare schemes believe his policies are well-suited for long-term economic growth.
B) The fiscal deficit increase under Modi's government was due to global economic downturns that affected many countries.
C) Economic growth rates have been fluctuating across the world, making it challenging for any government to maintain steady growth.
D) Some economists argue that short-term boosts in popularity through welfare schemes might hinder a country's economic stability in the future.

For CLAT, a central government issued reservation form is typically required. This is because CLAT is a national-level entrance exam and follows specific guidelines for reservation categories.
While a state-issued reservation form might be accepted in some cases, it's highly recommended to obtain a central government issued form to avoid any potential issues. This form can usually be obtained from the respective state's social justice department or a designated government office.
Regarding the validity of your 2022 state reservation form: While it might be valid for three years in some contexts, it's best to check the specific requirements for CLAT. The eligibility criteria and document requirements can change from year to year.
