Direction(1-10):So let us pose the question differently — who suffers in the absence of a Uniform Civil Code? Is it Muslim women, victims of polygamy and triple talaq, as Hindutvavadi wisdom has it? But for decades, feminist legal practice has successfully used both the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 — that is available to all Indian citizens regardless of religious identity — as well as the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986, to deal with polygamy and triple talaq, and to obtain maintenance, child custody and rights to matrimonial home for countless Muslim women. In addition, feminist legal activists have used the landmark Shamim Ara v. State of U.P. (2002) ruling to buttress their claim that arbitrary triple talaq is invalid.
Moreover, polygamy is not exclusive to Muslims. Hindu men are polygamous too, except that because polygamy is legally banned in Hindu law, subsequent wives have no legal standing and no protection under the law. Under Sharia law, on the contrary, subsequent wives have rights and husbands have obligations towards them. If gender justice is the value we espouse, rather than monogamy per se, we would be thinking about how to protect “wives” in the patriarchal institution of marriage. “Wives” are produced through the institution of compulsory heterosexual marriage, the basis of which is the sexual division of labour. This institution is sustained by the productive and reproductive labour of women, and almost all women are exclusively trained to be wives alone.
Thus, when a marriage fails to fulfil its patriarchal promise of security in return for that labour, all that most women are left with is the capacity for unskilled labour. Or they remain trapped in marriage with children to provide for, while men marry again, legally or otherwise, producing still more dependent, exploited wives and children for whom they take no responsibility. If gender justice is the point of legal reforms, the centrality and power of the compulsory heterosexual, patriarchal marriage, and the damage it can do to women, is what must be mitigated. This would mean recognising the reality of multiple “wives” as a common practice across communities, and the protection of the rights of all women in such relationships.In this sense, recent Supreme Court rulings that have granted rights to second wives in Hindumarriages dilute the legal standing of monogamy for Hindus but empower women.
A survey conducted by the Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan, a significant voice in the debate, found that more than 90 per cent of Muslim women in India want a ban on “triple talaq” and polygamy in Muslim Personal Law. That is, the demand is made within the framework of codifying Muslim Personal Law, not in favour of a Uniform Civil Code, partly because there is no clarity on what a uniform code would look like, but also because the demand comes from clearly Hindutvavadi quarters which have shown that both women and minorities are expendable for them.

Answer – Option B

2. A batsman scored 110 runs which included 3 boundaries and 8 sixes. What percent of his total score did he make by running between the wickets?

Answer – Option B

Explanation –Number of runs made by running = 110 – (3 x 4 + 8 x 6)
= 110 – (60)
= 50.
Required percentage = $\frac {5}{110$X100 % = 45$\frac {5}{11}$%

3. Two students appeared at an examination. One of them secured 9 marks more than the other and his marks was 56% of the sum of their marks. The marks obtained by them are:

Answer – Option C

Explanation – Let their marks be (x + 9) and x.
Then, x + 9 = $\frac {56}{100}$ (x + 9 + x)
25(x + 9) = 14(2x + 9)
=> 3x = 99
=> x = 33
So, their marks are 42 and 33.

4. What percentage of numbers from 1 to 70 have 1 or 9 in the unit’s digit?

Answer – Option C

Explanation – Clearly, the numbers which have 1 or 9 in the unit’s digit, have squares that end in the digit 1. Such numbers from 1 to 70 are 1, 9, 11, 19, 21, 29, 31, 39, 41, 49, 51, 59, 61, 69.
Number of such number =14
Required percentage = $\frac {14}{70}$ X 100% = 20%.

6. In a mixture 60 litres, the ratio of milk and water 2 : 1. If this ratio is to be 1 : 2, then the quantity of water to be further added is:

Answer – Option D

Explanation – Quantity of milk = 60 X $\frac {2}{3}$litres = 40 litres
Quantity of water in it = (60- 40) litres = 20 litres.
New ratio = 1 : 2
Let quantity of water to be added further be x litres.
Then, milk : water = $\frac {40}{20 + X}$
Now; $\frac {40}{20 + x}$ = $\frac {1}{2}$
20 + x = 80
=> x = 60.
=> Quantity of water to be added = 60 litres.

7. If Rs. 782 be divided into three parts, proportional to $\frac {1}{2}$$\frac {2}{3}$$\frac {3}{4}$then the first part is:

Answer – Option D

Explanation – Given ratio = $\frac {1}{2}$$\frac {2}{3}$$\frac {3}{4}$= 6 : 8 : 9.

8. A, B and C jointly thought of engaging themselves in a business venture. It was agreed that A would invest Rs. 6500 for 6 months, B, Rs. 8400 for 5 months and C, Rs. 10,000 for 3 months. A wants to be the working member for which, he was to receive 5% of the profits. The profit earned was Rs. 7400. Calculate the share of B in the profit.

Answer – Option B

Explanation – For managing, A received = 5% of Rs. 7400 = Rs. 370.
Balance = Rs. (7400 – 370) = Rs. 7030.
Ratio of their investments = (6500 x 6) : (8400 x 5) : (10000 x 3)
= 39000 : 42000 : 30000
= 13 : 14 : 10
B’s share = Rs. 7030 X $\frac {14}{37}$= Rs. 2660.

9. Ravi, Gagan and Nitin are running a business firm in partnership. What is Gagan’s share in the profit earned by them?
I. Ravi, Gagan and Nitin invested the amounts in the ratio of 2 : 4 : 7.
II. Nitin’s share in the profit is Rs. 8750.

Answer – Option B

Explanation – Let us name Ravi, Gagan and Nitin by R, G and N respectively.
I. R : G : N = 2 : 4 : 7.
II. N = 8750..
From I and II, we get:
When N = 7, then G = 4.
When N = 8750, then G = $\frac {4}{7}$ X 8750 = 5000.7
Thus, both I and II are needed to get the answer.

10. In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 3.2. What should be the run rate in the remaining 40 overs to reach the target of 282 runs?

Then x = (3889 + 12.952) – 3854.002
= 3901.952 – 3854.002
= 47.95.

16. 0.002 x 0.5 = ?
