CLAT Sample Papers 2021 Current affairs and general knowledge
The CLAT Sample Papers 2021 of the CLAT syllabus is divided into four units respectively - English language, current affairs and general knowledge,logical reasoning and Quantitative techniques
Question - 1
Turkey has aided all shades of Syria rebels (accepts the kurds) with arms and other kinds of support in the syria civil war since it began in 2011. The turkish army has also launched incursions across the border and now controls swathes of territory in northern syria. Ankara’s armed intervention in its southern neighbor, though, is only one aspect of its autocratic President Erdogan’s policies. As the syrian conflict continues to rage, a mass of people is trying to get away from the line of fire. These refugees have moved both within the country as well as outside. A large number of people have been trying to go to europe to build better lives for themselves. To achieve this they moved through Turkish territory. Erdogan has been cynically using these unfortunate people as leverage in his dealings with europe.
Recently, the Syrian conflict threatened to heat up in the northern part of the country again on 27th february, a Syrian airstrike killed 34 Turkish soldiers in the region. Turkey has since retailed by attacking Syria forces operating against terrorists of Hayat
Tahrir al-Shams, a branch of al Qaeda. This prompted a Russian warning Moscow is the primary backer of the Assad regime in Syria and has played a major role in propping it up. Turkey demanded that its NATO allies in Europe and America help it in its confrontation with Russia. The European states, especially France, have repeatedly criticized Erdogan over his involvement in the Syrian war. To convince the Europeans of the demerits of such a course, Erdogan opened the gates of Europe to refugees.
This isn’t the first time that Europe is facing a migrant crisis. In 2015, more than a million refugees arrived in Europe mostly through Turkey. Although initially welcomed, the arrivals soon led to political upheavals in host nations. New arrivals were portrayed as a cultural threat
Overtly, most leaders in Europe proclaim support for humanitarian values. However, the polities in these states have found it increasingly difficult to accept new migrants. Frequent attacks by Islamic radicals have also made the populace more aware of the dangers of uncontrolled migration. The right-leaning political parties gained traction in several states due to anti-immigrant sentiments. On the other hand, leftist parties in Europe have found it difficult to go against their own decades-long policies. To overcome the political division, the European Union (EU) signed an agreement with Turkey, in return for a curb to uncontrolled migration, the EU agreed to pay 6 billion euros to Ankara. It also agreed to discuss visa-free travel for turks to europe and restart Turkey’s EU accession talks.

5.what circumstances led to increased optimism regarding Turkey's EU membership application?
A.improvement in Turkish-Greek relations
B.a stronger Turkish commitment to meeting the Copenhagen criteria
C.a change in government in Germany
D.all of the above.
Answer D
Explanation - Turkey's membership prospects improved following a thaw in Greek turkish relations, a stronger turkish commitment to meeting the Copenhagen criteria and a change of government in Germany. Tukish-Greek relations improved following the ‘seismic diplomacy’ of 1999: the mutual exchange of aid and condolences following earthquakes in the two countries that year. This in turn softened Greek opposition to Turkish membership. The prospect of turkish membership also improved following a change of government in Germany in 1998. A change of government in Turkey in 2002 also produced rapid progress to meeting the Copenhagen criteria. Moreover the international climate meant that geo-strategic factors were increasingly in Turkey’s favour, although opposition to its accession remained strong in some states in 2004,particularly in France.
Logical Reasoning
Question 1- This is not pedantic hair-splitting. On the contrary, it is deeply important, because respect for precedent is at the bedrock of our judicial system, and of the rule of law. Ordinarily,prior judgements of the Supreme Court are binding and meant to be followed; this is what provided the system the stability and continue that differentiates the rule of law from the rule of judges. Now if a later bench of the court wants to go against binding precedent, a series of ground-rules exist to ensure that this can only happen after careful consideration and reflection and in judicial proceedings where both sides can put their case. These grounds stipulate for example that if a smaller bench feels that the binding decision of a previous larger bench is incorrect it refers the case to a large bench to consider and in general this referral takes place incrementally. The reason for this - to reiterate- is that respect for precedent requires logically that settled law be disturbed only when there are weighty reasons for doing so
However ,there is something more concerning here. If the nine-judge bench is no longer restricting itself to the reference questions- but intends to hear these petitions as well then it at least potentially follows that the Sabarimala petitions - out of which the review order arose - will also now be subject matter of the hearing. This would be truly extraordinary a final judgement of the court (five judges) would be effectively re-heard by a nine-judge bench against all existing norms and conventions. Recall that no judgement has yet doubted the correctness of the original Sabarimala decision or made a reference to have it reconsidered. In other words this second round with a larger bench is taking place purely by virtue of the chief justice exercising his administrative fiat.
It should be obvious by now that this is no longer about whether the original judgement in Sabarimala was right or wrong. People can- and do - have different views about that and it would be entirely open to later benches to reconsider it following proper procedures but what is at stake here is something deeper it is whether precedent continues to have any meaning at the supreme court or whether what we are witnessing is a gradual metamorphosis of the supreme court of india into the Supreme Chief Justice of India. Because what has happened here is that a number of crucial issues that required judicial consideration in a proper way(whether there is a conflict between Shirur Mutt and Durgah, requiring resolution whether the referred questions actually affect the pending cases and whether Sabarimala ought to be reconsidered) have been implicitly decided through the constitution of a nine-judge bench by administrative fiat.

-

-

-

-

Answer B
Explanation - Prior judgements of the supreme court are binding and meant to be followed this is what provides the system the stability and continuity that differentiates the rule of law from the rule of judges.

3.why is the review mechanism of the supreme court incremental in nature?
A.more judges translate into better judgments
B.reviews have limited grounds than petitions
