After 10 min you are written solution and the writing material will be
withdrawn from you.

(iv) In the 5th par, now you require to discuss the solution as arrive at
group solution with 10 min. This gp solution should be expectable to most
of you and not of you. At the and of 10 min or whenever gp solution is
reading one of you to getup come to the board and give the gp solution.

Note :- No credit is given to the candidate giving the gp solution. No

body is permitted to speak from the gp during the one candidate is being

1. So far you are working at indoor on non physical task. Now you will be working
at outdoor on physical task and the task is known as Progressive Group Task. The
task is called progressive as it is divided in four part task is becoming more and more
interesting.

2. Task will also require more time more physical and mental efforts in
progressively incremental order.

3. We will go out as we are plain four obstacle course game.

4. Since, there are no natural obstacle likes river, cannel, Nala etc at SSB. These
obstacle will be created by embedding bricks in ground and making lines there of.

5. Two such lines will be called Start Line and Finish Line and the are between
them being considered on obstacle will be placed out of Bound.

6. These SL or FL will be painted white to stand out on ground.

7. To assist you the task or you will help you with some structure made up of Balli,
Plunk, Wooden blocks, rope, drum, iron rode etc may be found embedded in ground.
You can make use of them.

8. To help you are having sum helping material like Balli, plunk, wooden blocks,
rope etc may also be given.

9. To make the task little more interesting a black box or drum called load may also
be given and is to be required to be carried alongwith you to the finish line of the 4 th
stage of test.

10. So that the task is that all candidate alongwith this load making use of helping
mtrl and the structure embedded in ground are to cross obstacles by obstacle and
reach beyond the finish line of the 4th stage of task.

11. Like all games this four stage obstacle game also have some rules.

12. These rules will be explained to you by the GTO in fair and of details.
 30

13. Please pay vary close attn on these rules are explained to you.

14. These rules are explained only once on the task commence. No clarification are
given.

15. The same rules will be applicable for all physical tasks carried out on that and the
next day and these rules will not be explained again.

16. Therefore, it is all the more imp that you understood these rules thoroughly.

Rules for PGT

1. Group Rule. All candidates alongwith helping mtrl and load are to across the
finish line of the 1st stage of the task before they can proceed to the next stage of the
task.

2. Distance Rule. Any distance which is more then 4 ft vertically or horizontally or

diagonally are not permitted to cross will have to make use of helping mtrl and the
structure embedded in ground to reduce the distance to 4 ft or less then 4 ft before you
can proceed.

Note :- Every one must have a very good idea as to how much is
4 ft distance.

3. Rule for Starting Line & Finish Line (SL & FL). SL & FL are painted white
embedded with brick line straight. However, they will be considered to be extending to
infirmity or other side.

4. Rule for Helping Material (HM). There are two types of HM provided to you
solid by Balli, plunk, wooden block etc and soft rope/ropes :-

(a) Two Single Solid Helping Material (SSHM) can not be tide together.

(b) 1 x SSHM can be placed or supported on other SSLM.

(c) A SSHM can be tide to any structure embedded in ground.

(d) A rope can be tide to any SSHM and/or to any structure embedded in
ground.

(e) Two ropes is given can be tide together to form a longer rope if you so

6. Rule for Colour. These are basically four colour found in SSB which are white,
blue, red and black.

(a) White . White colour is universally consider to be colour of Peace.

Therefore any thing which is painted white will be considered in bounce for
all.

(b) Red. Red colour is universally considered colour of danger, therefore this
colour will be considered out of Bound for all.

(c) Blue, Yellow & Green. One of the colour blue, yellow or green may
also be found on some of the structure. This colour is considered in bound
for the candidate but out of bound for the helping material and load. This
colour is generally found close to ground. It does not have any significance
of its own. It will be considered of the same colour which painted just
above red. It is basically on anti termite paint.

7. Rule for One Time Mobile Drum (OTMD). A white painted drum with a red
strip called OTMD may also be provided in the task :-

(a) OTMD may or may not be provided.

(b) If is provided it is only for that state of task.

(c) It may be provided SL,FL or any where in the Out of Bound (OOB) area.
Where is provided GTO will clarify, explain its loc to you while explaining
the task.

(d) As per the rule and the name OTMD (One Time Mobile Drum) can be
picked up and placed any where in the OBB Area once that to following all
other rules.

(e) Once it is placed it will be considered a fixed object/structure and can not
be moved thereafter.

(f) Leave the OTMD wherever it was placed by you and carry on further with
task.
