\n- On account of its large population, India has a large volume of freight and passenger traffic, which requires a large number of vehicles. But the road network is not adequate to handle heavy traffic.<\/li>\n
- As most of the roads are kuccha or unmetalled, their usage is limited during the rainy season. The potholes on roads in the monsoon season lead to accidents.<\/li>\n
- More national highways need to be built to connect the different parts of the country.<\/li>\n
- The roads in the cities are highly congested and traffic jams are a constant problem. Most of the bridges and culverts are also old and narrow aggravating the problem.<\/li>\n
- Roadside amenities like emergency medical facilities, telephone booths, etc., are lacking. Police patrolling on the highways is not adequate. So, goods and passengers are not safe at times.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

\nCaste system is inherent in Indian politics because it plays a dominant role in the Indian politics. It proves to be harmful for politics because it damages democratic ideals:<\/p>\nThe above statement can be justified with the following reasons :<\/p>\n
\n- There are many caste pressure groups like the Scheduled Caste Federation, etc., which influence those who are in power by different methods to fulfil their demands.<\/li>\n
- Caste also plays an important role when candidates are nominated by political parties for a particular constituency. So, it weakens the political system of the country.<\/li>\n
- Voters, even though being illiterate, tend to vote for people who belong to their caste in the hope that they will uphold their caste interest. There is over emphasis on caste interest loyalty rather than national interest.<\/li>\n
- Political parties have come up to protect the interests of the backward classes. Even while ministries are formed, different castes are kept in mind.<\/li>\n
- The scheduled castes and tribes are given reservations in educational institutions, legislatures and government jobs. This is to remove their historically accumulated backwardness. But, it has led to strengthening of casteism and caste identity and most importantly reservation conflicts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Answer. 24.<\/strong>

- Strong opposition : In the bi-party system, the opposition will be very strong and effective as only one party forms the opposition.<\/li>\n
- Responsible government : This system best reconciles responsiveness with order and representative government with efficient governance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Following are the two disadvantages of two-party system :<\/p>\n
\n- Undemocratic : Sometimes, the two-party system is considered undemocratic as the ideological choice is very limited between two parties. The opinions of people cannot be expressed properly.<\/li>\n
- Cabinet dictatorship : Since the party comes in the power by an absolute majority, it is difficult to remove it and it can result in the dictatorship of the cabinet.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Ans. 25.<\/strong>
\nPriya works as a clerk in a commercial bank. Commercial banks fall into organised sector of an economy.<\/p>\nThe various advantages for the workers in an organised sector of an economy are :<\/p>\n

OR<\/strong>
\nIn the above stated case Ramlal is a farmer and works in primary sector of economy, Salim being a technician falls into secondary sector of economy and since Sheetal is an executive in a showroom her work falls into tertiary sector of the economy.<\/p>\nAll the three sectors of economy are interdependent. This can be understood with the following examples:<\/p>\n
\n- Agricultural activities produce raw materials for agro-based industries and food for employees working in secondary and tertiary sectors. It shows that industrial sector and service sector is dependent on primary sector.<\/li>\n
- Industrial activities produce instruments like tractor, fertiliser for agricultural inputs which increases the productivity in agricultural sector. Hence, primary sector depends on secondary sector.<\/li>\n
- Transportation facilities are required for transporting of agricultural products and industrial products to the market of rural and urban centres. Here, primary and secondary sectors depend on tertiary sector.<\/li>\n
- Industrial sector produces trucks, autos, etc., for transportation and computer and its periferals for proper banking activities and knowledge outsourcing. So, it shows that tertiary sector depends on secondary sector.<\/li>\n
- If farmer does not produce grain, all people will starve and employees in secondary and tertiary sectors can not work properly without food.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
