I have completed the first year in M.A. Geography at Rajasthan University with distance mode now Im in the second year but this year I also enrolled for a B ed degree at regular mode with the same university. Is it legal?
Hello!
Yes, it is legal to pursue two degrees at a time. As per the guidelines under UGC (University Grants Commission), students can pursue two full time degrees simultaneously but under few criteria, like:
1- One course should be at regular mode and other at the distance mode.
2- Both course should be from UGC recognized institutions.
3- Both the course should be of same level.
4- This criteria does not apply to Phd Programs.
So, without any hesitation you continue your MA and BeD.
Wishing you all the best!!
Answer laterQuestion : Read the following information carefully and answer the given questions.
Big dams received a big push from politicians and bureaucracy pouring enormous amounts of borrowed money in the early years of Independence. There has however been hardly any attempt at questioning the extent of damage caused or in evaluating whether the promises of food, water and prosperity for all have actually been realised. The diversion of rivers and construction of a long system of canals in a densely populated country like India will involve displacement of people on a colossal scale and the people affected are never likely to agree with such measures. All over the world, community reaction is to prevent construction of large dams. Preserving rivers in free-flow condition is considered ecologically necessary and the construction of large dams is now legally prohibited in Sweden and also in parts of USA. The technical challenges to be faced in redrawing the geography of the country are many and full of dangerous consequences and the mad rush in pursuit of such a chimera will prove disastrous. The cost of the project is so stupendous that any water made available will cost so much that governments will have to be forever subsidizing farmers. What long-term impact this massive borrowing will have on the economy is difficult to foresee.
Question:
What are the factors which are mentioned in the passage as the disadvantages of the dams?
Option 1: The ecological imbalance caused due to diversion of rivers
Option 2: Shifting of population on a large scale
Option 3: The construction of dams is banned in Sweden
Option 4: Shifting of people on a large scale and ecological imbalance due to restrictions on the natural flow of rivers
Correct Answer: Shifting of people on a large scale and ecological imbalance due to restrictions on the natural flow of rivers
Solution : The correct answer is option 4.
Displacement of people on a large scale and ecological imbalance due to restrictions on the natural flow of rivers.
Explanation:
Let us look at the following passage lines:
- The diversion of rivers and construction of a long system of canals in a densely populated country like India will involve displacement of people on a colossal scale and the people affected are never likely to agree with such measures.
- Preserving rivers in free-flow condition is considered ecologically necessary and the construction of large dams is now legally prohibited in Sweden and a/so in parts of USA.
- As a result of the preceding, we can conclude that the correct answer is option 4

Question : Study the given table and answer the question that follows.
The table shows the classification of 100 students based on the marks obtained by them in history and geography in an examination.
| Subject | Mark out of 50 | ||||
| 40 and above | 30 and above | 20 and above | 10 and above | 0 and above | |
| History | 9 | 32 | 80 | 92 | 100 |
| Geography | 4 | 21 | 66 | 81 | 100 |
| Average (Aggregate) |
7 | 27 | 73 | 87 | 100 |
Based on the table, what is the number of students scoring less than 20% marks in aggregate?
Option 1: 13
Option 2: 11
Option 3: 10
Option 4: 12
Correct Answer: 13
Solution : Given that 20% of 50 marks = 0.2 × 50 = 10 marks
The number of students scoring less than 20% marks in aggregate = The number of students scoring 0 and above marks in aggregate – The number of students scoring 10 and above marks in aggregate
= 100 – 87 = 13.
Hence, the correct answer is 13.
