Consider the following statements regarding 'High Nitrogen
Steel(HNS)':
1. It is
non-magnetic.
2. It is not
corrosion-resistant.
Which of the
statements given above is/are correct?
a) 2 only
b) Both 1 and 2
c) 1 only
d) Neither 1 nor 2
Correct
Answer: C
Explanation
*High nitrogen steels
are a new class of high alloy martensitic, austenitic or duplex grades with
up to 0.9 mass% of N
in solid solution.
Significance
*The alloy has
significant applications in the defence sector due to its much higher ballistic
strength than normal
steel, but currently the country is largely dependent on imports.
*In addition to being
non-magnetic and corrosion-resistant, the HNS cost is about 40% less
compared to Rolled
Homogenous Armour Steel (RHA)
*The HNS technology
would further the Army’s quest for lighter and high-performance
armouring material
compared to materials currently in use.

Consider the following statements regarding the 'Polymetallic
Nodules:'
1. They are found in
Deep Sea Oceans.
2. They are non
existent in Pacific ocean.
Which of the
statements given above is/are correct?
a) 2 only
b) Both 1 and 2
c) Neither 1 nor 2
d) 1 only
Correct
Answer: D
Explanation
Polymetallic Nodules
Also known as
manganese nodules, they are largely porous nodules found in abundance
carpeting the sea
floor of world oceans in deep sea.
Besides manganese and
iron, they contain nickel, copper, cobalt, lead, molybdenum, cadmium,
vanadium, titanium,
of which nickel, cobalt and copper are considered to be of economic and
strategic importance
Their composition
varies by location, and sizeable deposits been found in four areas:
• Penrhyn Basin near
within the Cook Islands .
• North central Pacific
Ocean in a region called the Clarion Clipperton Zone (CCZ)
roughly
midway between Hawaii
and Clipperton Islands.
• Peru
Basin in the southeast Pacific,and
• Southern tropical Indian
Ocean in a region termed the Indian Ocean Nodule Field (IONF)
roughly 500 km SE of Diego
Garcia Island.
Consider the following statements about Protection in Respect of
Conviction for Offences
1. This right is
available to citizen and foreigner including enemy alien.
2. Compulsory
production of material objects amounts to self-incrimination.
3. The protection
against double jeopardy is available in proceedings before a court of law or a
judicial tribunal as
well as departmental or administrative authorities.
4. The protection
against self-incrimination extends criminal proceedings and civil proceedings.

Which of the above
statements given above is/are not correct?
a) 2 only
b) 2, 3 and 4 only
c) 1, 2, 3 and 4
d) 3 and 4 only
Correct
Answer: C
Explanation
Article 20 grants
protection against arbitrary and excessive punishment to an accused person,
whether citizen or
foreigner or legal person like a company or a corporation ( but not enemy
alien)
The protection
against self-incrimination extends to both oral evidence and documentary
evidence. However, it
does not extend to (i) compulsory production of material objects, (ii)
compulsion to give
thumb impression, specimen signature, blood specimens, and (iii)
compulsory exhibition
of the body.
The protection
against double jeopardy is available only in proceedings before a court of law
or a judicial tribunal. In other words,
it is not available in proceedings before departmental or
administrative
authorities as they are not of judicial nature
The protection
against self-incrimination extends only to criminal proceedings and not to
civil
proceedings or
proceedings which are not of criminal nature.

simple logic will help you find answer of this question. If you know the
definition of enemy
alien , then you can find the answer. (it is important to know definition of
such key words )
