Answer questions based on the picture given.
What was done later to deal with ‘aaya ram, gaya ram’ phenomenon?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Parliament brought in a constitutional amendment and an Anti-Defection Law to outlaw defections.
Gaya Lal’s feat became the subject of numerous jokes and cartoons, and later the Constitution was amended to prevent defections.
Tip: The picture is the Amul advertisement printed in the box ‘The story of “Aya Ram, Gaya Ram”’, and all five questions on it come from that box and the paragraph on defection above it. Whole question sets can be built on such pictures and boxes; give every box and cartoon of a chapter a reading of its own.
