    Passage 1: Premchand’s Legacy

    When I was in my late teens and still undecided about which language I should write in, he told me that the language one is born into, one’s mother tongue, can be the only possible medium of creative expression. For most of his life, my father, Sripat Rai, had been a Hindi editor and critic. Off and on, he translated writings into English from Hindi. He was fond of saying that a failed writer becomes a critic. The weight of his literary expectation came, eventually, to rest on me. He seemed happy that I was showing an inclination for writing. “She will go far,” he told my mother after reading the first story that I sent him from Melbourne.

    Passage 2: AI Regulation in India

    The governance and regulation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have garnered significant global attention over the past year. India, however, appears to have taken a different approach. It has neither an officially approved National AI Strategy document nor a law specifically regulating AI. Instead, it has focused its resources on a government mission designed to support the development and adoption of AI. The NITI Aayog document titled ‘National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence’ from 2018, while comprehensive and strong in its suggestions, remains a recommendation without formal endorsement from the Government of India or an implementation plan or budget. The IndiaAI mission, through its seven pillars, aims to foster an innovative, skilled, safe, and trustworthy AI ecosystem.

    1. What is unique about India’s approach to AI regulation?
      (1) It has strict AI laws in place.
      (2) It relies on a government mission rather than a strategy.
      (3) It follows global AI policies strictly.
      (4) It has a fully funded implementation plan.
    2. Why is the NITI Aayog document ineffective?
      (1) It lacks government endorsement.
      (2) It focuses only on technology.
      (3) It is too simple to implement.
      (4) It ignores cultural aspects.
    3. What is the primary goal of the IndiaAI mission?
      (1) To enforce strict AI laws.
      (2) To create a trustworthy AI ecosystem.
      (3) To reject global AI models.
      (4) To reduce public involvement.
    4. How does the passage describe the global attention on AI?
      (1) It has decreased over the past year.
      (2) It has increased significantly.
      (3) It is limited to a few countries.
      (4) It focuses only on economic benefits.
    5. What is a key feature of the NITI Aayog document?
      (1) It includes a detailed budget.
      (2) It offers comprehensive suggestions.
      (3) It has been officially endorsed.
      (4) It outlines strict regulations.
    6. Choose the correct meaning of the word “foster” as it appears in the passage:
      (1) Ignore

      (3) Hinder

    Passage 3: Cultural Preservation through Technology

    As AI adoption grows rapidly in India, concerns arise about discrimination, cybersecurity threats, and privacy breaches. Current guardrails are voluntary and lack clarity, with little public awareness of algorithmic use in sectors like banking and healthcare. This has led to social harms, including violence from AI-generated content. Lessons from global data regulation, such as the EU’s GDPR and China’s Personal Information Protection Law, suggest India could adopt a hybrid model using the DPDP Act, 2023. An AI policy could pilot enforcement tools, addressing vision, capacity, ethics, and priority sectors, while initiating public discourse to align AI with societal values.

      (1) Lack of technological advancement.
      (2) Privacy breaches and social harm.
      (3) Overregulation by the government.

    2. What global model could improve India’s AI governance?
      (1) U.S. decentralized approach.
      (2) Hybrid model with DPDP Act.
      (3) China’s rejection of ethics.
      (4) EU’s complete deregulation.
    3. Why is public discourse important according to the passage?
      (1) To increase government control.
      (2) To align AI with societal values.
      (3) To eliminate voluntary guardrails.
      (4) To focus solely on economic gains.
    4. What has contributed to social harms in India related to AI?
      (1) Clear regulatory frameworks.
      (2) Violence from AI-generated content.
      (3) Lack of technological adoption.
      (4) Excessive public awareness.
    5. Which sectors are mentioned as affected by unclear algorithmic use?
      (1) Education and entertainment.
      (2) Banking and healthcare.
      (3) Agriculture and manufacturing.
      (4) Transportation and retail.
