(a)- iv, (b)- i, (c)- iii, (d) ii

(a)- ii, (b)- iii, (c)- i, (d) iv

Correct Answer:

(a)- iv, (b)- iii, (c)- i, (d) ii

Explanation:

Article 356 gave the Centre the powers to take over a state administration on the recommendation of the Governor.

The Third list contained subjects that were shared between the Centre and State.

Nagappa pointed out that numerically the DepressedCastes were not a minority: they formed between 20 and 25 percent of the total population. Their suffering was due to their systematic marginalization, not their numerical insignificance. They had no access to education and no share in the administration.

One of the groups mentioned by Ranga, the tribals, had among its representatives to the Assembly the gifted orator Jaipal Singh.
