individual mark, like the colour dot.

Q14

X is a fixed, melodic composition in Hindustani vocal or instrumental music. It is set in a specific raga, performed with rhythmic accompaniment by a tabla or pakhavaj, a steady drone, and melodic accompaniment by a sarangi, violin or harmonium. There are different ways of systematizing the parts of a composition. A bandish provides the literature element in the music, for standard structured singing. In the past many gharanas protected their X from moving out of the family with gross incoherent vocal renditions. In the realm of vocal music, it is often known as Cheez.

Q15

X concept gained currency only in the nineteenth century when the

royal patronage enjoyed by performers weakened. Performers

were then compelled to move to urban centres. To retain their respective identities, they fell back on the names of the regions

they hailed from. Therefore, even today, the names of many X refer

to places. Some of the gharanas well known for singing Y are :

Agra, Gwalior, Patiala, Kirana, Indore, Mewati, Sahaswan,

Bhendibazar and Jaipur

Q30 Excerpts from a letter

To whom?

"To recall the sequence of events, I would like to record, that I was carrying out my duties as Minister of State (I/C) Environment and Forests in the routine course, when suddenly that day on December 20, 2013, the then PM, Dr. Manmohan Singh summoned me to his office. When I entered he stood up from his chair, looking tense and grim, and uttered these exact words. He said “Jayanthi, I have been told by Congress President, that your services are required for party work.” I was puzzled, and I said, “Yes Sir. So what should I do?” He replied, “She wants you to resign.” I was shocked and said, “Resign Sir? But when?” He replied “Today.” I once again asked him if this was what the Congress president wished. He answered in the affirmative. Unsuspecting, and trusting you totally, I did not utter a single word, but smiled at him and said I would comply with the wishes of the Congress President."

Q 31 Conspiracy theory about whom

X visited his mother and sister Maya in Indonesia. X then went on to Pakistan with a friend from college whose family was from that country, the campaign said.

X was in Pakistan for about three weeks, said the campaign, staying with his friend’s family in Karachi and also visiting Hyderabad in Southern India [more likely Hyderabad in Pakistan, DC].

Pakistan in 1981 was under military rule. It was difficult for U.S. citizens to travel to the country without assistance. It would have been easier for someone to enter Pakistan on an Indonesian passport.

Q 32

X is a pejorative term describing web content that is aimed at

generating online advertising revenue, especially at the expense of

quality or accuracy, relying onsensationalist headlines to

attract click-throughs and to encourage forwarding of the material over online social networks. X headlines typically aim to exploit the

"curiosity gap", providing just enough information to make the

reader curious, but not enough to satisfy their curiosity without

clicking through to the linked content.
