(A) The Supreme Court’s message is that the Centre should get down to creating a legal and technical framework to implement the Tribunal’s award, as modified by the judgment.
(B) By upholding the approach of the Cauvery Water Dispute Tribunal, while slightly modifying its award, the Supreme Court has boosted the prospects of a viable water-sharing arrangement among the riparian States.
(C) This is a significant recognition of the principle of equitable distribution of inter-State rivers.

(E) It has underscored that no single State has primacy in accessing water resources and that rivers are national assets.

(G) In August 1998 The Cauvery River Authority (CRA) constituted by the centre for the implementation of the interim award of the CWDT.

6. If the first statement after the rearrangement is statement (B) “By upholding the approach of the Cauvery Water Dispute Tribunal, while slightly modifying its award, the Supreme Court has boosted the prospects of a viable water-sharing arrangement among the riparian States.” then which among the above statements fails to provide the coherent meaning to the paragraph?

Ans:3
Option (c) is the correct choice. Statement (B) being the first statement clearly depicting the theme of the paragraph after rearrangement which articulates about the award given by Supreme Court on the controversy of the distribution of the Cauvery tribunal between Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. However, All the statements are completely comprehending with the theme of the paragraph except for statement (G). Statement (G) is simply describing an event in the sequence of the controversy occurred in 1988. Nonetheless, it fails to connect logically with the paragraph. Therefore, option (c) becomes a viable answer choice.

 

7. If the statement (F), “ This is the strongest affirmation so far of a basin State’s right to its share of water on a regular basis without having to rush to the court for ad hoc orders to open the sluices of reservoirs during monsoon-deficit years” is the last statement of the paragraph so formed after the rearrangement of other statements eliminating the incoherent statement, which of the following statements can follow the statement (F) eloquently?

Ans:1
Option (a) is the correct choice. Being statement (F) the last one, its mentioning about the supreme court’s verdict to both the states about the dispute on the distribution of Cauvery water. Thus, the next statement should include the opinions and reactions of both the states regarding the verdict. Such information is only provided in option (a). All the other options do not logically follow the last statement i.e., statement (F) as they all are either describing a previous event of the verdict or fail to be interlinked with the theme of the paragraph. Hence, only option (a) is a viable choice.

 

8. Considering statement (B), “By upholding the approach of the Cauvery Water Dispute Tribunal, while slightly modifying its award, the Supreme Court has boosted the prospects of a viable water-sharing arrangement among the riparian States.” as the first statement of the rearranged paragraph excluding the incoherent one, then which among the following combinations denotes the pair of consecutive statements i.e., the first sentence would be immediately followed by the second one?

Ans:2
Option (b) is the correct choice. The correct sequence of the paragraph after rearrangement is BDECAF . Only statements (E) and (C) can be logically and meaningfully interlinked with each other. As, statement (E) is describing about the rivers being the national assets, whereas, statement (C) is describing about the principle which should be used for equitable distribution of inter-state rivers. Thus, together both the statements provide a coherence to the paragraph. Although, all the other statements belong to the same theme of the paragraph, the given combinations fail to be the consecutive statements. Thus, option (b) is the most suitable choice.

 

9. Which one of the following given sentences can replace statement (D) “ That it has reduced the Tribunal’s allocation for Tamil Nadu and raised Karnataka’s share does detract from the fairness of the decision.” of the paragraph after the rearrangement?

Ans:4
Option (d) is the correct choice. Here, statement (D) is providing the information on the verdict given by the Supreme Court. Only option (d) is providing the similar information on the supreme court’s decision. All the other options are giving a further detailed information on the verdict. Hence, the only sentence that can replace statement (D) is option (d) making it a feasible choice.

 

10. If statement (B) and statement (F) are the first and the last sentence of the paragraph respectively then what is the correct sequence of the paragraph after rearrangement excluding the incoherent sentence?

Ans:5
Option (e) is the correct choice. If statement (B) is the first and statement (F) is the last statement, the statements in the sequence BDECAF form a coherent paragraph which is about the supreme court’s verdict on the controversy of the distribution of Cauvery water between the states Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Therefore, option (e) becomes the most appropriate answer choice.
