SMART Solutions will be provided so that you learn how to approacha question in the exam, even if you don’t have the full knowledge ofthe topic given.EXAMPLE:Let’s see how smart solution can be effective through UPSC PRELIMS QUESTIONOF 2018.Q1: Consider the following statements:1. In the first Lok Sabha, the single largest party in the opposition was theSwatantra Party.2. In the Lok Sabha, a “Leader of the Opposition” was recognised for thefirst time in 1969.3. In the Lok Sabha, if a party does not have a minimum of 75 members, itsleader cannot be recognized as the Leader of the Opposition.Which of the statements given above is/are correct?(a) 1 and 3 only(b) 2 only(c) 2 and 3 only(d) 1, 2 and 3A. Correct Options: (b)Explanation:Leader of the Opposition! Statement 1 is incorrect: 1952 elections The Congress had won 364 out of 489 Lok Sabha seatsin the first ever general election held in India. Its vote share was 45 percent.PTTS2022-PPP-B112PRELIMS PRACTICE PROGRAMME - 2022

TEST SERIES 2022www.iasscore.in13 The CPI was the second party with just 16 seats.The Swatantra Partywas an Indian liberal conservative political party that existed from 1959to 1974.! Statement 2 is correct: Leader of opposition was recognized for the first time in 1969. The leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha wereaccorded statutory recognition in 1977. They get same salaries andallowances that are equivalent to a Cabinet minister – paid by the govt.! Statement 3 is incorrect: In each House of Parliament, there is the ‘Leader of the Opposition’. Theleader of the largest Opposition party having not less than one-tenthseats of the total strength of the House is recognized as the leader ofthe Opposition in that House.Total 10% seat means In Lok Sabha 10% of 543 55 (In 3rd statement,it says “minimum of 75members”),hence its incorrect. In Rajya Sabha 10 % of 245 25Smart Solution In the first reading most of the candidates will find that statement 1 &2 are very factual in nature and hard to solve. In this case they skip thequestion and move on to the next one. But, If candidate reads the question further he/she will realize thatstatement 3 was in news (Congress got only 44 seats in last Lok Sabhaelections) and is straight away wrong. In the Lok Sabha, if a party doesnot have a minimum of 10% (55) members of the total strength (543), itsleader cannot be recognized as the Leader of the Opposition. Conclusion: Even if you have no idea about statement 1 and 2 and areupdated with the current affairs you can straight away eliminate options(a), (c), and (d) and can mark option ‘(b)’ as the correct answer.**********PRELIMS PRACTICE PROGRAMME - 2022PTTS2022-PPP-B113
