Day 18 Sleepy CSAT PYQ Series Today, we will be looking at a P&C question. We alternate between RC, LR and Quant PYQs in this series. Try to solve it. Solutions will be provided later today.
Solution to Today's CSAT PYQ
This was a basic P&C question.
2 steps.
1) We just consider [QU] to be one entity
2) We should know that when arranging items, if a certain entity is repeated, we divide the total permutations (the numerator) by the factorial of that repetition's frequency.
Here E occurs twice
So we divide by 2!
Answer is 12

Which of the following is often highlighted as a major bottleneck in Parliamentary proceedings?
When the highest temple of democracy works part-time, can we really expect full-time progress for the nation?
โ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฆ๐ถ๐๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ฎ๐๐
โWhy is our Parliament working fewer days?
The first Lok Sabha averaged 135 sitting days a year, but today that number has crashed.
To ensure real progress, we need a strict mandate requiring Parliament to meet for at least 120 days annually.
โ๐ฃ๐๐ฏ๐น๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ถ๐๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ป๐ฒ๐ฐ๐
โAre we judging MPs on the wrong scorecard?
Voters often judge MPs on local issues like fixing roads. But an MPโs real job is national policy and oversight.
We must hold them accountable for making laws, not municipal work.
โ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ผ๐๐๐น๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ธ๐
โWhy do disruptions replace actual debates?
Instead of constructive discussions, Parliament suffers from constant shouting matches, a shrinking Question Hour, and low attendance in the committees where laws are actually reviewed.
โ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐บ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ฎ๐น๐
โHow do we fix the system?
โ"Opposition Hour":
Give the opposition dedicated time to set the agenda.
โPublic Scrutiny:
Mandate public consultation before passing any bills.
โExpert Research:
Provide MPs with funded researchers and add specialized experts to standing committees.
โ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ป๐ด๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐
โWhere does your voice fit in?
Parliament shouldn't be a closed fortress. It needs a digital "Citizen's Corner" where voters can easily track MP performance, submit petitions, and stay engaged long after election day.
