How to use this volume
Solve the paper first, under exam conditions and against the clock. Then read the answers here and mark your own. Reading a solution before attempting the question feels productive and teaches very little, because recognising an answer is not the same as being able to write one.

1.What is diarchy?[2]
Answer
Diarchy, or dyarchy, means rule by two: a system in which the executive authority in a government is divided between two sets of persons responsible in different ways.
It was introduced in the provinces by the Government of India Act, 1919, on the recommendation of the Montagu-Chelmsford Report. Provincial subjects were divided into "transferred" subjects, such as education, local self-government and public health, administered by the Governor with ministers responsible to the elected legislature, and "reserved" subjects, such as law and order, police, land revenue and justice, administered by the Governor with his Executive Council, who were not responsible to the legislature.
