B. Though this policy has multi-dimensional sectoral advantages, the authors

in cities and towns based on spatial analysis in the coming years, unlike before.

C. Also, the “differential development strategy” mentioned in the 10th Five-Year

Plan (2002-2007) aimed to address this by focusing on development according
to space requirements.

D. But it appears that this has not been fully successful in achieving equitable
growth across the country. The Union Ministry of Science and Technology of the
Union Government of India recently notified the National Geospatial Policy

Spatial planning is rooted over space or territory. It is a

kind of regional planning where planning is made on
certain physical as well as socio cultural and economic
region. It refers to the methods used by the public sector
to influence the distribution of people and activities in
spaces of various scales. Spatial planning includes land
use, urban, regional, transport and environmental
planning. Other related areas are also important,
including economic and community planning. Spatial
planning takes place on local, regional, national and
international levels and often result in the creation of a
spatial plan. Spatial economic development is a vital part
of government’s national economic policy focus.

A. Today, it is possible to find very rich and very poor people in every caste,
1. CBDA
whether ‘low’ or ‘high’. This was not true even twenty or thirty years
2. ACBD ago – it was very rare indeed to find rich people among the ‘lowest’
3. CDAB castes.
4. CABD
B. Although this kind of explicit and formalised inequality based on caste is
now outlawed, the effects of centuries of accumulated advantages and
disadvantages continue to be felt.

C. Caste is an important source of economic inequality because it regulates

access to resources of various kinds. For example, in the past, the so-
called ‘untouchable’ castes were denied the right to own land, while
only the so-called ‘twice born’ castes had the right to education.

D. Moreover, new kinds of inequalities have also developed. The

relationship between caste and economic status has certainly changed a
lot.

 S1. Sushmita has been living with Type 2 diabetes mellitus for the past decade and

2. SQPR Galvus, Gluconorm and Thyroxine for these ailments on a daily basis as prescribed
by her physician.
3. SRQP
4. SPRQ P. She consumed Ayusulin twice a day, morning and evening, for two months alongside
her prescribed medication until she began presenting symptoms of jaundice.

Q. So, she went to a nearby pharmacy in Kolkata, where she lives. But the Ayurvedic
practitioner there suggested an even better option — Ayusulin, a ‘herbal’ treatment
also meant to control diabetes.

R. Her eyes were becoming yellow, she was blacking out in the morning, feeling
extreme weakness, dizziness, and losing her appetite.

S. At 55 years of age, she is compelled to follow a watchful, healthy lifestyle. General

word-of-mouth introduced her to jamun seed powder, an Ayurvedic treatment
which claims to keep blood sugar levels under control.

S6. By the time it was three months since she had been taking Ayuslin, she was
completely senseless. Sushmita was taken to AMRI Hospital in Kolkata where the
doctor declared her chances of survival are dangerously low.

 S1. Urban sinking, also known as land subsidence, refers to the gradual sinking
1. QSPR of the land surface in urban areas. It is caused by natural and human-made
2. PSQR factors including groundwater extraction, construction works, soil
3. SQPR consolidation and geological processes.
4. SPRQ
P. Excessive extraction of groundwater often causes land subsidence in urban
areas due to the increasing demand for water due to rapid urbanisation.

Q. Land subsidence damages critical infrastructure such as buildings and roads,

changes drainage patterns and increases the risk of flooding.

R. The construction of heavy buildings and infrastructure and changes in land

use cause soil compression leading to land subsidence.

S. Land subsidence is a human-induced event. Of all the cases of land

subsidence worldwide, 77 per cent are caused by human activities, with
groundwater extraction accounting for 60 per cent.

S6. It can also affect groundwater availability with significant environmental

implications for cities and their inhabitants.

4. PRQS for the environment. Leaves could be an alternative for packaging.

Q. They are part of Nigeria’s vast informal sector, which accounts for 57.7 per cent
of the country’s economy. But most food prepared by vendors has to be
consumed within a short time to avoid spoilage.

R. But their use in cities has not been fully explored — so we studied the
possibility and sustainability of using natural leaves as packaging material for
traditional foods in Nigeria.

S. Refrigeration capacity is limited because of unreliable power supplies in the

country. The popularity of food sold by street vendors is part of a global shift in
urban areas to “fast foods”.

S6. Leaves are still used in the Nigerian countryside to package food.

3. SQPR P. It was not enough merely to clear lands for agriculture. Railways were needed to link
4. RSQP the agricultural regions to the ports. New harbours had to be built and old ones

Q. Capital flowed from financial centres such as London. The demand for labour in places
where labour was in short supply – as in America and Australia –led to more migration.

R. Around the world – in Eastern Europe, Russia, America and Australia – lands were
cleared and food production expanded to meet the British demand.

S. People had to settle on the lands to bring them under cultivation. This meant building
homes and settlements. All these activities in turn required capital and labour.

S6. Nearly 50 million people emigrated from Europe to America and Australia in the
nineteenth century. All over the world some 150 million are estimated to have left
their homes, crossed oceans and vast distances over land in search of a better future.

4. SPRQ sudden release of water retained in a glacial lake). The Himalayas have been carved
out of the collision of tectonic plates and the geological forces continue to raise the
mountains vertically.

Q. In the Himalayas, attention must be paid to the local area; while Leh is rocky, hard
and dry, Arunachal Pradesh is soft, moist, full of biodiversity and green.

R. Of course, there are some overarching challenges that are common; for instance,
climate change and the heavier precipitation during the monsoons being
experienced now leads to landslides and other more serious disasters.

S. This leads to serious seismic activity and culminates in earthquakes that are
difficult to predict. Small tremors are felt far more often than heavier earthquakes.

S6. Hence, due to these factors, the western, central and eastern Himalayas all have
different characteristics.
