Consider the following statements about Sardar Vallabhai Patel: 1. Sardar Vallabhai Patel was elected for the first time as the Sanitation Commissioner of Ahmedabad in 1917. 2. Sardar Patel did not identify himself with Gandhi’s moral convictions and ideals. 3. He was a revolutionary leader in the Indian independence movement. Which of the given above statements is/are correct? (a) 1 and 2 (b) 2 and 3 (c) 2 only (d) 1 only Ans: (a) Explanation: • Source: S1: In 1917 he was elected for the first time as the Sanitation Commissioner of Ahmedabad. From 1924 to 1928 he was Chairman of the Municipal Committee. The years of his association with the Municipal administration were marked by much meaningful work for the improvement of civic life. Work was done to improve water supply, sanitation and town planning and the Municipality was transformed, from being a mere adjunct to the British rule, into a popular body with a will of its own. • Source: S2: In 1917 Patel found the course of his life changed after having been influenced by Mohandas K. Gandhi. Patel adhered to Gandhi’s satyagraha (policy of nonviolence) insofar as it furthered the Indian struggle against the British. But he did not identify himself with Gandhi’s moral convictions and ideals, and he regarded Gandhi’s emphasis on their universal application as irrelevant to India’s immediate political, economic, and social problems. Nevertheless, having resolved to follow and support Gandhi, Patel changed his style and appearance. He quit the Gujarat Club, dressed in the white cloth of the Indian peasant, and ate in the Indian manner. • S3: Patel, however, was no revolutionary. In the crucial debate over the objectives of the Indian National Congress during the years 1928 to 1931, Patel believed (like Gandhi and Motilal Nehru, but unlike Jawaharlal Nehru and Subhas Chandra Bose) that the Telegram: https://t.me/insightsIAStips 5 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpoccbCX9GEIwaiIe4HLjwA Revision Through MCQs (RTM) Compilation (November 2020) goal of the Indian National Congress should be dominion status within the British Commonwealth—not independence. In contrast to Jawaharlal Nehru, who condoned violence in the struggle for independence, Patel ruled out armed revolution, not on moral but on practical grounds. Patel held that it would be abortive and would entail severe repression. Patel, like Gandhi, saw advantages in the future participation of a free India in a British Commonwealth, provided that India was admitted as an equal member. He emphasized the need to foster Indian self-reliance and self-confidence, but, unlike Gandhi, he did not regard Hindu- Muslim unity as a prerequisite for independence. Refer: https://www.insightsonindia.com/2020/11/02/rashtriya-ekta- diwas-2/ 2. Which of the following factors affect the formation of Typhoons? 1. upper atmosphere convergence 2. sufficient coriolis force 3. moist mid-atmosphere 4. warm ocean water 5. low atmospheric stability Select the correct answer using the code below: (a) 1, 2, 4 and 5 (b) 1, 2, 3 and 4 (c) 2, 3, 4 and 5 (d) All of the above Ans: (c) Explanation: • Several atmospheric ingredients must come together to favor the formation of a typhoon. Since a typhoon is just another term for hurricane, the same conditions apply for both. There are perhaps seven atmospheric conditions which, if met, could cause a typhoon to form. A pre-existing disturbance, warm ocean water, low atmospheric stability, sufficient Coriolis force, moist mid- atmosphere, and upper atmosphere divergence are all important factors for typhoon formation. • These factors are important in that tremendous amounts of heat energy is transported from the tropics northward to the higher latitudes. The typhoon is a large heat engine, where great amounts of heat are being produced from the process of latent heat of condensation. This occurs as water vapor is being evaporated from the ocean surface and condensed into cloud droplets.

Consider the following statements: 1. National Medical Commission (NMC) is an elected body where all members of the commission are elected by medical practitioners themselves. 2. One of key function of NMC is to framing guidelines for determination of fee for up to 50% of the seats in the private medical institutions. Which of the given above statements is/are correct? (a) 1 only (b) 2 only (c) Both 1 and 2 (d) Neither 1 nor 2 Ans: (b) Explanation: • S1: National Medical Commission (NMC) is an Indian regulatory body of 33 members which regulates medical education and medical professionals. These members will be appointed by the central government on the recommendation of a committee. It replaced the Medical Council of India on 25 September 2020. o Apart from the Chairman, the NMC will consist of 10 ex- officio members and 22 part-time members appointed by the Central government. • S2: Main Functions of the NMC include: o Laying down policies for regulating medical institutions and medical professionals. o Assessing the requirements of human resources and infrastructure in healthcare and medicines. o Ensuring compliance by the State Medical Councils with the regulations made under the Bill. o Framing guidelines for determination of fee for up to 50% of the seats in the private medical institutions. o The NMC will make guidelines for a new cadre of non-MBBS mid-level health service providers such as nurse practitioners and pharmacists with limited rights to prescribe Medicines. o Appellate powers. o Common entrance examination. Refer: https://www.insightsonindia.com/2020/11/02/minimum- requirements-for-annual-mbbs-admissions-regulations-2020/ 4. Consider the following statements: 1. China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) passes through Gilgit Baltistan region. 2. This region is home to Uighur Muslim community. Telegram: https://t.me/insightsIAStips 7 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpoccbCX9GEIwaiIe4HLjwA Revision Through MCQs (RTM) Compilation (November 2020) 3.
