ENGLISH LANGUAGE
Direction (Q. 101 110): Read the following passage and answer the following questions.
The cabinet of our country has banned on sale of cigarette to the minors (children below 18
years of age). Even the sale and storage of cigarettes, within the radius of 50 meters around
school, colleges, and other educational institutions will not be allowed. These decisions were
effected from January 1 2012. Both these norms have been made a penal offence and those
caught violating them always face a fine of Rs. 500 and imprisonment up to three months. The
complaints lodged against these cases are investigated by officers of the rank of sub inspector.
The health department has appointed the agency to implement the city cabinets decision. This
decision of cabinet will take help from the local police in removing cigarettes shops near school
and colleges. At present restrictions exist only on sale of liquor around schools and colleges.
And it is for the first time that the government has focused its attention towards curbing sale of
cigarettes near these institutions. Observers are skeptical about the success of the move to
discourage smoking among minors. These resolutions will certainly help in controlling the
smoking among youngsters.
Our cabinet was enforced to take these decisions as recent studies conducted by the health
department revealed that a large number of youngsters, particularly those below the age of 18
are involved in smoking. Sources said the government is likely to take some more measures
over next few months to check sale of cigarettes. In addition, some of the existing clauses of

Price Rise is one of the crucial issues for country like India. Since many years, price rise has
become a persistent woe in India's national life. It has given spread to widespread distress

imbalance in economy of the country, which arise due to distinctive factors; inadequate supply
of goods, improper planning strategies, weaker export and import policies and so on.

excess money supply, imbalance in production, selfishness among traders and undue increase
in population. It is a high time for the government to take some concrete measure to manage
