"N.G.O. is a private enterprise for social progress." This statement is made by

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: C

The statement that an NGO is a private enterprise for social progress is by Lord Beveridge.

The key credits the description of a voluntary organisation as private enterprise for social progress to Beveridge, the British social reformer who wrote on voluntary action.

Lord Bryce, Jawaharlal Nehru and A.P.J. Abdul Kalam are well known figures, but the key does not credit this statement to any of them.

National Policy for persons with disabilities was framed in the year

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

The National Policy for Persons with Disabilities was framed in 2006. It covers prevention of disabilities, rehabilitation, education, employment and social security for persons with disabilities, and it followed the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act of 1995.

The years 2003, 2004 and 2005 are not the date of the National Policy. They fall before it, and the policy was adopted after the 1995 Act and a national policy debate in the early 2000s, so only 2006 is correct.

Which of the following is not one of the objectives of social justice laid down in our Five Year Plans ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

Promoting economic growth is not an objective of social justice in the Five Year Plans. It is an economic objective, though it supports social justice by raising resources to be shared.

Inclusive growth, balanced regional growth and removal of unemployment are social justice objectives, as they aim at spreading the benefits of development to the weaker sections and backward regions, and at giving work to those who lack it.

Which of the following is not related to Social Welfare Administration ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

The Central Social Welfare Board, the National Commission for Women and the National Commission for SCs and STs deal with the welfare of weaker sections and women, which is the field of social welfare administration. The key treats the National Human Rights Commission as not related to social welfare administration, since it is a body for the protection of human rights and inquiry into their violations. So the last option is the answer.

Assertion (A) : The Central Social Welfare Board acts as a change maker with a humanitarian approach.

Reason (R) : It facilitates networking of committed social workers for the empowerment of women and children.
Codes :

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: A

Both (A) and (R) are correct, and (R) explains (A), which is the first option. The Central Social Welfare Board works as a change maker with a humanitarian approach, and it does so by helping to network committed social workers who work for the empowerment of women and children.

The option that denies that (R) explains (A) fails because networking is the way the Board acts. The options calling either statement false are wrong because both describe the Board's role.

'Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) or education for all' is an outcome of which of the following Constitution Amendment in India ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

The Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan followed from the 86th Constitution Amendment (2002), which made education a fundamental right for children aged six to fourteen under Article 21A. The Abhiyan was launched to give effect to universal elementary education.

The 42nd Amendment of 1976 added the Preamble words and Fundamental Duties, and the 44th Amendment of 1978 dealt with property and emergency provisions. The 59th Amendment of 1988 concerned Punjab, so those options are unrelated.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The midterm appraisal of the National Rural Health Mission in 2009 observed a significant improvement in health indicators, according to the key, and the Mission was judged to have improved access and services in the rural areas.

The options saying that there was a decline, that no change was noticeable, or that the appraisal was not conducted are wrong, because an appraisal was carried out and it reported improvement.

Which one of the following is not an indicator of low level of social welfare ?

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

Higher life expectancy is not a sign of a low level of social welfare; it indicates a high level. Longer life shows better health, nutrition and living conditions.

A high rate of crime, unemployment and poverty are all signs of poor social welfare, so the first three options are wrong choices for this negative question.
