Even in rich countries like England and U.S.A. mas education is not only free but there are many additional facilities like mid-day meal for children, free medical service, and scholarship on a generous scale. Since education is a fundamental civil and human right and basic to the health of the body politics, funds must be found for the purpose whatever the cost of the scheme. If we consider educational and cultural activities to be important, funds will be forthcoming. What we have to do is to rearrange our priority.

Question 20 :
A passage is given below followed by several inference . You have to examine each interference separately in the context of the passage and decide upon its degree of truth or falsity , Mark your answer as:<br><br>Investors today have more investment options than were available just a few years ago. Choice in any decision-making is good in so far it provides variety, differentiation and bench-marking. It could also, however, at times lead to clutter and "noise" if the options are mostly similar and undifferentiated. To make sense of this choice conundrum, it is imperative for an investor to define objective - both returns and digestible risk and then identify the possible options. The investor also needs to select the mix and regularly monitor that objectives and investment outcomes remain aligned. Sounds simple, but can present the most confounding situation which multiplies with the quantum of wealth. <br>Present day investors need to use their judgement more critically before investing.
