Q. With reference to the islands of India, consider the following statements: 1. The entire island group in Bay of Bengal is built of coral deposits. 2. The Arabian sea island group is an elevated portion of the submarine mountains.

#Solution #Samajho #SPR+ ▪️Statement 1 is correct. The western coastal plains are an example of submerged coastal plain. It is believed that the city of Dwaraka which was once a part of the Indian mainland situated along the west coast is submerged under water. Because of this submergence it is a narrow belt and provides natural conditions for the development of ports and harbours. Kandla, Mazagaon, JLN port Navha Sheva, Marmagao, Mangalore, Cochin, etc. are some of the important natural ports located along the west coast. ▪️ Statement 2 is correct. As compared to the western coastal plain, the eastern coastal plain is broader and is an example of an emergent coast. There are well- developed deltas here, formed by the rivers flowing eastward in to the Bay of Bengal. These include the deltas of the Mahanadi, the Godavari, the Krishna and the Kaveri. Because of its emergent nature, it has less number of ports and harbours. This Question was asked in SPR+ Crash Course.

#Solution #Samajho #SPR+ ▪️At present the Criminal Jurisprudence in India is governed by two main laws: 1. The Indian Penal Code (IPC), is the official criminal code of India. It was drafted in 1860 by Lord Macaulay. 2. The Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) of 1974, is the main law on the procedure for the administration of criminal law in India. ▪️Statement 1 is not correct. The definition of the word bail is not given in the CrPC. It only categorises offences given in the IPC as bailable or non-bailable. ▪️Statement 2 is correct. The CrPC empowers the magistrate to grant bail for bailable offences as a matter of right. That is, the Magistrate need not check the merits of the case to decide on the bail application. For non-bailable offences, a magistrate decides bail application on the merits of the case. Here it is not a matter of right. This Question was asked in SPR+ Crash Course.

#Solution #Samajho #SPR+ Article 20 dealing with Protection in respect of Conviction of offences has three provisions : ▪️No ex-post-facto law: No person shall be (i) convicted of any offence except for violation of a law in force at the time of the commission of the act, nor (ii) subjected to a penalty greater than that prescribed by the law in force at the time of the commission of the act. ▪️An ex-post-facto law is one that imposes penalties retrospectively (retroactively), that is, upon acts already done or which increases the penalties for such acts. ▪️However, this limitation is imposed only on criminal laws and not on civil laws or tax laws. In other words, civil liability or a tax can be imposed retrospectively. Hence, statement 1 is correct. ▪️No double jeopardy: No person shall be prosecuted and punished for the same offence more than once. 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. ▪️No self-incrimination: No person accused of any offence shall be compelled to be a witness against himself. ▪️The protection against self-incrimination extends to both oral evidence and documentary evidence. ▪️Further, it extends only to criminal proceedings and not to civil proceedings or proceedings which are not of criminal nature. Hence statement 2 is not correct. This Question was asked in SPR+ Crash Course.

Q. With reference to Article 20 of the Constitution of India, consider the following statements: 1. Only civil laws can be applied retrospectively. 2. The protection against self-incrimination extends to both criminal and civil proceedings.
