COMPREHENSION

Right of entry to education, an ample teaching – learning environment, a suitable curriculum and an empowered and all-
encompassing faculty are four essential prerequisites of an education system that seeks to enable social transformation. While
educational reform since the 1980s was strongly focused on the first two elements, the late 1990s brought the role of the
curriculum into national focus. The critical link that binds these four critical elements together – the activity of the faculty
continues to be cast aside, by political ideologies of most hues, contemporary curriculum reform efforts and the professional
practices of the faculty.

Far-reaching educational initiatives of both the Left and the Right have recognized the potential power of the faculty. In multiple
experiments, they have used this dormant force to build committed institutions and cadres of faculties dedicated to their
particular causes. In many instances this has led to extreme politicization of the college faculty. In others it has led to the education
of a generation of students in half-truths underpinned by the personal beliefs, sectarian concerns and folk pedagogy of faculties
who have had little access themselves to education and training in related areas.

Over the last decade or so, educational reform has included, apart from access, a focus on developing alternative text materials
and the training of faculty to handle these materials, without directly engaging with the issue of curriculum revamp. At the turn of
the 20th century, a major national curriculum redesign was initiated following the change of political regime at the centre. The

MCHET 2023 MOCK 07 · English · Questions Page 1 of 66

 instance scholars argued that, “….. the curriculum, while loud on rhetoric, fails to address the quality of education that students of
under-privileged and marginalized groups experience”. Several other critics described the revised curriculum as a retrogressive
step in education that sought to impose the religious agenda in the garb of a national identity.

The subsequent change of national government in 2004, led to the curriculum review in 2005 underlining a new political interest
in the role of education in national development, its role in social mobilization and transformation directed specifically at
questions of caste and gender asymmetry and minority empowerment. Deeper than these politically driven initiatives, however,
the professional need for curriculum review emerges from the long ossification of a national education system that continues to
view faculty as “dispensers of information” and students as “passive recipients” of an “education”, sought to be “delivered” in four-
walled classrooms with little scope to develop critical thinking and understanding.

Read the following short passages and choose the best answers to the questions that follow each passage.

59. Therapists have just completed an extensive study of recently delinquent juveniles in order to determine which factors contributed
most to the delinquency. The researchers found that in a great majority of the cases of delinquency, the parents met, on average, fewer than
4 times per week with their children. From this data, the therapists have determined that a failure to spend time together with the children
is a major factor leading to delinquency.
Which one of the following, if true, would cast the most doubt on the researcher’s hypothesis?

(a) Parents and children in the study who reported that they met each other more than four times per week also indicated that they
tended to perceive their relationships as healthy.

(b) In many cases, people in unhappy family tend to express their displeasure by avoiding contact with each other when possible.

(c) Most of the families in the study who were unable to meet often with each other worked outside of the home.

(d) Many families who have a long and strong family bonding met each other fewer than four times per week.

60. Several coaching centres have recently switched at least partially from study material written by hand on printer paper from study
material written on a computer and sent electronically with no use of paper at all. Therefore, less printer paper will be used as a result of
these changes than would have been used if these coaching centres had continued to use handwritten study materials.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument above?

(a) The amount of printer paper needed to explain the electronic study material is less than the amount that would have been used
for handwritten material.

(b) Coaching centres that used more printer paper were more likely to switch to electronic materials than centres that used less
printer paper.

preceded by images of a mighty and violent tsunami wave, the audience thought the girl’s face registered fear. Media news teams must be
careful to avoid such manipulation of their viewers.

116 Legal Principles:

1. In order to convert a proposal into a promise the acceptance must be absolute and unqualified.
2. Acceptance must be expressed in some usual and reasonable manner, unless the proposal prescribes the manner in which it is to be
accepted. If the proposal prescribes a manner in which it is to be accepted, and the acceptance is not made in such manner, the proposer
may, within a reasonable time after the acceptance is communicated to him, insist that his proposal shall be accepted in the prescribed
manner, and not otherwise; but, if he fails to do so, he accepts the acceptance.
Facts: TUV’s employee performing installation on Motorola’s premises was injured due to the negligence of Motorola employees. TUV had
executed a purchase order that contained an indemnity form. First purchase order contained indemnity provision which narrowly applied to
damages caused by the negligence of TUV’s employees. It attached a broader indemnity form page which would make TUV also responsible
for the negligence of Motorola employees in connection with the work. This page was marked VOID. Amendment 2 to Purchase order
contained same provision and attached same additional indemnity form which this time was not marked VOID. But also contained the
additional language that “acceptance should be executed on acknowledgement copy which should be returned to the buyer.” Employee was
injured several months before the acknowledgement copy of the second purchase order was executed, but was in the course of performing
work related to the second purchase order. Decide whether TUV liable 22 under the broader indemnity provision.

amended purchase order as it did not execute the acknowledgement.

(b) Motorola’s amendment gave a suggested mode of acceptance which did not preclude TUV’s acceptance by another method. TUV
accepted when TUV undertook performance of the work called for by the amendment with the “consent and acquiescence” of
Motorola.

(c) TUV is not liable under the broader indemnity provision as it did not execute the acknowledgement copy until several months after
the employee sustained his injury.

(d) TUV is not liable as commencement of work was acceptance to the first purchase order in which the broader indemnity provision
was marked as void.

119 Legal Principles:

1. A contract can become void when: It is unfairly one-sided; it goes against public policy; its subject matter is illegal; it is impossible to
perform; it unfairly restricts one side's actions (such as the right to work); one of the parties is not legally competent to enter into a binding
contract.
2. A contract is void as against public policy if: (1) it is a contract by the defendant to pay the plaintiff for inducing a public official to act in a
certain manner; (2) it is a contract to do an illegal act; or (3) it is a contract that contemplates collusive bidding on a public contract.
Facts: BR Industries, a company manufacturing drills, machine parts and components thereof and a purchaser of subcontract work from
other suppliers, won the bid from the HLK Company to supply certain parts to it at a specified price. BR industries then contracted with SU
Co. to supply the parts under the contract for a much lower price. BR Industries then intended to keep the difference between the amount it
billed the HLK Company and the amount SU Co. charged for the parts. BR Industries initiated an action for breach of contract when SU Co.
failed to complete the order. In its defense, SU Co. asserts that the contract is void as against public policy because Defendant turned a
profit of 84.09% on anvils, 39.13% on holder primers and 68.33% on plunger supports. Did plaintiff receive too much compensation
deeming it unconscionable and against public policy?

(a) The contract is void as against public policy as it is a contract that contemplates collusive bidding on a public contract.

(b) The Contract is void as it unfairly one sided.

(c) Relative values of the consideration in a contract between business men at “arms-length” without fraud will not affect the validity of
the contract.

(d) Relative values of the consideration in a contract between business men will affect the validity of the contract as it amounts to
abuse of dominance and unconscionable.

Correct: +1

120 Principle: Children have a duty to maintain their parents under various personal laws.
Facts: A mother who had no income and whose husband was a pensioner, filed a maintenance claim against her son, who along with his wife,
are financially in good position. The son contested the claim on the ground that his mother has two more earning sons and therefore it was
not his responsibility alone to maintain his mother.

(a) It is for the court to decide whether parent has an option to seek maintenance from any of her children.

(b) The son in question has to pay maintenance irrespective of the position of the other sons.

(c) The parents cannot, by fancy, leave a son who has sufficient means and proceed against another whose means are limited.

(d) Parent is also to establish that the other party has sufficient means and refused to maintain her

121 Legal Principles:
1. Offer is a proposal made by one person to another to do an act or abstain from doing it. The person who makes the offer is known as the
promisor or offeror and the person to whom an offer is made is known as the promisee or the offeree.
2. A contract comes into being by the acceptance of an offer. When the person to whom the offer is made signifies his consent thereto, the
proposal is said to be accepted and the parties are at consensus ad idem regarding the terms of the agreement.
Facts: In Dec. 2019, a convicted murderer who was sentenced to death escaped from the custody of Ramesh, a prison official. Ramesh later
offered a reward of INR 50,000 to anyone who captured the fugitive and returned him to the authorities. In Jan. 2020, without knowledge
or notice of the reward, Sunil captured the fugitive and took him to Ramesh's jail house. Ramesh refused Sunil's demands for the reward
money. Sunil filed a case against Ramesh to recover the reward. Ramesh alleges that there is no contract between Ramesh and Sunil.

(a) A mere offer or promise to pay did not give rise to a contract. Rather, the assent or meeting of two minds gave rise to a contract, and
therefore it was not complete until the offer was accepted. Having notice or knowledge of the existence of the reward when he
captured the fugitive is essential to his right to recover the reward offered by Ramesh.

(b) The act of capturing the fugitive was acceptance of the offer of reward through conduct and so a valid contract is entered upon.

(c) There was an offer by Ramesh and acceptance by Sunil and it is immaterial whether Sunil had notice or knowledge of the existence
of the reward when he captured the fugitive.

(d) Such an offer, like the reward here, could be accepted by anyone who performs the service called for, when the acceptor knows that
it has been made and acts in performance of it.

Correct: +1

122 Principle: A person who has pledged his goods should recover it within the stipulated time by making the requisite payment. Failure
to do so would entitle the person retaining the goods to sell them.
Factual situation:

would repay the said amount in 6 months. Yogesh failed to repay the amount even after 1 year inspite of Vineeth’s repeated demands.
Vineeth sold the property for the same price to his brother Roshan. Can Yogesh claim back his house?

(a) Yes, because he is the real owner

(b) No, because he failed to repay the accepted amount within 6 months

(c) Yes, Vineeth sold the house to his brother himself.

(d) Yes, because Yogesh did not authorise Vineeth to make the sale.

Correct: +1

123 Principle: The contract after death of one party can be continued if it is ratified by the surviving party
Factual Situation:
Vishal, a famous artist was requested by Arun, an industrialist to draw the portrait of his deceased wife and paid Rs. 20,000 in advance and
agreed to pay when the work was completed, a sum of Rs. 2 lakhs. When the portrait was half drawn, Vishal died due to heart attack. His son
also a fine artist completed his father’s work and demanded the money from Arun. Arun refused to pay and to accept the portrait drawn by
Vishal’s son and also demanded the advance to be returned.

(a) Arun cannot demand the advance amount from the son of Vishal, because in normal cases the son is not responsible for the father’s
contractual obligation

(b) Son of Vishal cannot demand the rest of amount from Arun because Arun has not assigned him the work

(c) Arun can demand the rest of amount
