NIFT UG 2019 Question Paper with solutions

In each of these questions a passage is followed by several inferences. You have to examine each inference separately in the context of the passage and secede upon its degree of truth or falsity.
 India ranks 153 out of 190 nations in the percentage of women in the lower house of world parliaments. According to a list compiled by the Inter-Parliamentary Union, Rwanda ranks first with 61% of its lower house representatives being women. Even Pakistan with 20% participation from women is ahead of India. India had 65 women out of 545 Members of Parliament (MPs) elected to the 16 th Lok sabha in May 2014, for a 12% representation. Only the 15 th and 16 th Lok sabha changed a previously stagnant representation of under 9% recorded by Indian women MPs since Independence. While we allocate total seats to states by population, the resultant women's representation at 12% is far below the actual population of women. So, on grounds of fairness, this is an anomaly. A fully representative Parliament allows the different experiences of genders to craft priorities and shape the economic and social future of a democratic society.
