Q1. Read the following statements about the democratic journey of South Asian countries and choose the correct ones: (i) In Pakistan, military rulers like General Ayub Khan, General Yahya Khan, General Zia-ul-Haq and General Pervez Musharraf came to power at different times. (ii) Nepal was a constitutional monarchy till 2006, after which a democratic movement led to the King accepting the demand for a new democratic constitution. (iii) The monarchy in Bhutan announced its full transition to a one-party socialist republic. (iv) In Bangladesh, a democratic constitution was framed in 1972 under the leadership of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
दक्षिण एशियाई देशों की लोकतांत्रिक यात्रा के बारे में निम्नलिखित कथनों को पढ़ें और सही कथनों को चुनें: (i) पाकिस्तान में जनरल अयूब खान, जनरल याह्या खान, जनरल जिया-उल-हक और जनरल परवेज़ मुशर्रफ़ जैसे सैन्य शासक अलग-अलग समय पर सत्ता में आए। (ii) नेपाल 2006 तक एक संवैधानिक राजतंत्र था, जिसके बाद एक लोकतांत्रिक आंदोलन के फलस्वरूप राजा ने एक नए लोकतांत्रिक संविधान की मांग को स्वीकार किया। (iii) भूटान के राजतंत्र ने एक-दलीय समाजवादी गणराज्य में अपने पूर्ण संक्रमण की घोषणा की। (iv) बांग्लादेश में, शेख मुजीबुर रहमान के नेतृत्व में 1972 में एक लोकतांत्रिक संविधान का निर्माण किया गया।
- A. (ii), (iii) and (iv) / (ii), (iii) और (iv)
- B. Only (i) and (iii) / केवल (i) और (iii)
- C. (i), (ii) and (iv) / (i), (ii) और (iv)
- D. (i), (iii) and (iv) / (i), (iii) और (iv)
Solution
Pakistan saw repeated military rule, Nepal moved from monarchy toward democracy by 2006, and Bangladesh adopted its 1972 constitution under Sheikh Mujib. Bhutan became a multi-party democracy under its king, not a one-party socialist republic, so statement (iii) is wrong.
पाकिस्तान में बार-बार सैन्य शासन रहा, नेपाल 2006 तक राजतंत्र से लोकतंत्र की ओर बढ़ा, और बांग्लादेश ने शेख मुजीब के नेतृत्व में अपना 1972 का संविधान अपनाया। भूटान अपने राजा के नेतृत्व में एक बहु-दलीय लोकतंत्र बना, न कि एक-दलीय समाजवादी गणराज्य, इसलिए कथन (iii) गलत है।
Q2. Which of the following are genuine issues of dispute between India and Bangladesh as discussed in the chapter? (i) Sharing of the waters of the river Ganga and the Brahmaputra. (ii) Illegal migration of people from Bangladesh into India. (iii) The Kargil region and the Siachen glacier.
अध्याय में चर्चित भारत और बांग्लादेश के बीच विवाद के वास्तविक मुद्दे निम्नलिखित में से कौन-से हैं? (i) गंगा और ब्रह्मपुत्र नदियों के जल का बँटवारा। (ii) बांग्लादेश से भारत में लोगों का अवैध प्रवास। (iii) कारगिल क्षेत्र और सियाचिन ग्लेशियर।
- A. (i), (ii) and (iii) all are correct / (i), (ii) और (iii) तीनों सही हैं
- B. Only (i) and (iii) are correct / केवल (i) और (iii) सही हैं
- C. Only (i) and (ii) are correct / केवल (i) और (ii) सही हैं
- D. Only (ii) and (iii) are correct / केवल (ii) और (iii) सही हैं
Solution
River-water sharing and illegal migration are India–Bangladesh issues, while Kargil and Siachen are part of the India–Pakistan dispute, so only (i) and (ii) are correct.
नदी-जल का बँटवारा और अवैध प्रवास भारत–बांग्लादेश के मुद्दे हैं, जबकि कारगिल और सियाचिन भारत–पाकिस्तान विवाद का हिस्सा हैं, इसलिए केवल (i) और (ii) सही हैं।
Q3. A South Asian nation threw off the Sultanate and became a republic in 1968, adopted a presidential form of government, and in recent years saw the Maldivian Democratic Party come to power through elections. Which country is being described?
एक दक्षिण एशियाई राष्ट्र ने सल्तनत को उखाड़ फेंका और 1968 में एक गणराज्य बन गया, राष्ट्रपति शासन प्रणाली को अपनाया, और हाल के वर्षों में मालदीवियन डेमोक्रेटिक पार्टी को चुनावों के माध्यम से सत्ता में आते देखा। किस देश का वर्णन किया जा रहा है?
- A. Nepal / नेपाल
- B. Bhutan / भूटान
- C. Sri Lanka / श्रीलंका
- D. Maldives / मालदीव
Solution
These features — a 1968 republic with a presidential system and the Maldivian Democratic Party — belong to the Maldives.
ये विशेषताएँ — 1968 में राष्ट्रपति प्रणाली वाला गणराज्य और मालदीवियन डेमोक्रेटिक पार्टी — मालदीव की हैं।
