This is an orig­i­nal mixed Gen­er­al Stud­ies and edu­ca­tion-relat­ed prac­tice set for prepa­ra­tion. It is not an offi­cial UPESSC ques­tion paper. Sub­ject-spe­cif­ic TGT/PGT syl­labi may differ.

1. Which of the following Constitutional Amendments added the words “Socialist”, “Secular” and “Integrity” to the Preamble of the Indian Constitution?

Cor­rect Answer: B. 42nd Amend­ment.
The 42nd Con­sti­tu­tion­al Amend­ment Act, 1976 added “Social­ist” and “Sec­u­lar” and changed “uni­ty of the Nation” to “uni­ty and integri­ty of the Nation” in the Preamble.

2. Consider the following statements about the writ of Mandamus:
I. It may be issued to compel performance of a public duty.
II. It is ordinarily not issued against the President or a State Governor for the exercise of their official powers.
III. It can never be issued against a private body under any circumstances.

Cor­rect Answer: A. Only I and II.
Man­damus com­pels per­for­mance of a pub­lic duty. Con­sti­tu­tion­al immu­ni­ty applies to the Pres­i­dent and Gov­er­nors in the spec­i­fied con­text. A pri­vate body per­form­ing a pub­lic duty may, in appro­pri­ate cir­cum­stances, be sub­ject to a writ.

The Kesa­vanan­da Bharati judg­ment of 1973 estab­lished that Par­lia­men­t’s amend­ing pow­er under Arti­cle 368 does not extend to destroy­ing the Con­sti­tu­tion’s basic structure.

5. The Permanent Settlement of Bengal, introduced in 1793, was primarily associated with which Governor-General?

Cor­rect Answer: B. Lord Corn­wal­lis.
The Per­ma­nent Set­tle­ment was intro­duced in Ben­gal in 1793 under Lord Corn­wal­lis, fix­ing land rev­enue demands and recog­nis­ing zamin­dars as pro­pri­etors sub­ject to the set­tle­men­t’s conditions.

6. Which of the following is the most appropriate distinction between the Western Ghats and the Eastern Ghats?

Cor­rect Answer: B. The West­ern Ghats are gen­er­al­ly more con­tin­u­ous and high­er than the East­ern Ghats.

8. Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between fiscal deficit and revenue deficit?

Cor­rect Answer: B.
Rev­enue deficit equals rev­enue expen­di­ture minus rev­enue receipts. Fis­cal deficit broad­ly rep­re­sents total expen­di­ture minus receipts exclud­ing bor­row­ings, indi­cat­ing the gov­ern­men­t’s bor­row­ing requirement.

9. Which enzyme is primarily responsible for joining Okazaki fragments during DNA replication?

Cor­rect Answer: B. DNA lig­ase.

10. A solution has a hydrogen-ion concentration of 1 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L at 25°C. What is its approximate pH?

Cor­rect Answer: B. 5.
pH = −log₁₀[H⁺]. There­fore, −log₁₀(10⁻⁵) = 5.

11. A body moves in a circle at constant speed. Which statement is correct?

Cor­rect Answer: C.
In uni­form cir­cu­lar motion, speed is con­stant but veloc­i­ty changes because direc­tion changes. Cen­tripetal accel­er­a­tion points toward the cen­tre of the circle.

12. In a population following Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of a recessive allele is q = 0.2. What proportion of the population is expected to be heterozygous?

Cor­rect Answer: C. 32%.

13. In educational psychology, the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is most closely associated with which theorist?

Cor­rect Answer: C.

15. Which classroom practice most strongly reflects the principle of formative assessment?

Cor­rect Answer: B.

17. Which of the following statements about the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is correct?

Cor­rect Answer: B.
NEP 2020 pro­pos­es the 5+3+3+4 struc­ture cov­er­ing ages 3–18 and gives sig­nif­i­cant atten­tion to ear­ly child­hood care and edu­ca­tion, foun­da­tion­al lit­er­a­cy and numeracy.
