Q1 Development has many aspects .In our country Gujarat has shown a lot of
development and progress in the past decade. Rajasthan is also showing the progress in
different aspects of development from the last 5 years. Now compare the study of
Development rate in these two states on the basis of
a) Scientific research
b) Oil reserve
c)Development of IT industry
d)NRI
investment in the state e)Infant mortality f)Nutritional level of people G)status of
women
Draw the conclusion that which state has shown more development in different aspects
stated above.
Q2 In India, the proportion of women in legislature has been very low due to which India
ranks last among the nations in the world. Find out what steps have been taken to
increase the participation of women in Indian politics. Suggest some measures which
can be taken to increase their participation. Compare it with one developed and
underdeveloped country.
