Sample Questions for Legal Reasoning

Ques 1- Last week, the management used the Drug Price Control Order, 2013, to raise the price cover for 21 medicines by as significant as 50% to guarantee their availability. This is a pleasing move because lower prices would have additionally limited the availability of these medicines, some of which involve those utilized for leprosy, malaria, and allergy. The declaration by the administrative authority – usually known to reduce prices of essential drugs – was urged by the pharmaceutical industry’s repeated petitions, which aimed out that the increasing cost of imports had made the production of any of these medicines unviable. Prices of bulk drugs and existing pharmaceutical elements have gone up by up to 88%, and are primarily imported.

Does this propose a fundamental question: Should the government control expenses? The impulse for controlling medicine prices is not very difficult to assume. Unlike some of the extended countries, where most people have insurance coverage, or the state administers medical facilities, medical costs in India are borne by citizens, mostly into out-of-pocket expenses. Therefore, the state intervenes by holding prices of some drugs in check to accommodate such spending. Nevertheless, the unintended outcome is that it affects the supply of drugs and can make citizens worse off. The risk of non-availability was an essential reason for raising costs. Although all pharmaceutical firms may not stop providing drugs with price limitations, they may limit the stock. Further, the management usually dithers on price hike because of political factors so that it is not accused of favoring private organizations.

Thus, the government should stay away from composing prices and allow the market to perform. Competition in the marketplace will guarantee that no business can make remarkable profits in necessary and crucial drugs. Since the state has confined resources, it should concentrate on control, and ensure that the quality of drugs provided in the market is not negotiated.

2.1 Based on the author’s thoughts in the passage above, which of the following would be correct:

(a) The state should not control the costs of drugs since this would hamper the growth of international pharmaceutical organizations.

(b) The state should restrain the prices of medicines since it would also be producing the medication itself.

(c) The state should not constrain the prices of medicines since it would resolve

the best price for such drugs. (Answer)

(d) The state should control the costs of drugs since residents are likely to fall ill more often.

Explanation:

C is the correct Answer- the state should not constrain the costs of medicines since it would resolve the best price for such medication.

The author offers the reason for regulating drug prices towards the commencement of the second paragraph – since, unlike in advanced countries, medical costs in India are owned by citizens, the state occurs by keeping prices of some medicines in check. Therefore, based on this logic, if citizens do not have to pay for drugs, there would be no reason for the state to constrain rates.

There is nothing in the passage to sustain either (a), (b), or (d) as the right option.

2.2 An necessary medicine, ‘Formula A,’ is used to heal cancer, and there is only one company involved in its production. If this is correct, then, based on the author’s logic in the passage above:

(a) The state should not constrain the price of Formula A since it should provide the market to operate.

(b) The state should control the cost of Formula A, since there is no conflict in the marketplace, and it cannot perform to control the price of the drug. (Answer)

(c) The state should ban the selling of Formula A, and ask victims to consider using some other medicine made by more than one company.

(d) The state should take up the production of Formula A itself.

Explanation:

B is the correct Answer– the state should restrain the price of Formula A since there is no conflict in the marketplace, and it cannot perform to control the cost of the drug.

The author claims that competition in the marketplace would guarantee that no company can make remarkable profits in the last statement of the passage above. If only one company produces Formula A, there would be no competition in the marketplace, so the state would have to constrain its price.

Sample Questions for Logical Reasoning

Rahul Dravid, the head trainer of India’s Under-19 cricket team, demonstrated that the 2018 Under-19 World Cup team selection procedure provided possibilities to a lot more players to come into the India Under-19 fold. He revealed that more than winning— which is not the right standard of success of a program at this level — is how many of the players are capable of moving to the following level: playing first-class cricket. He, therefore, made a purposive decision not to select players from the previous World Cup to the 2018 Under-19 World Cup squad.

1.1 Which one of the resulting statements is compatible with Dravid’s selection strategy for the 2018 Under-19 World Cup, as said above?

(a) Selecting an incompetent team at the under-19 level ensures failure, and players who experience failure learn to be gentle.

(b) Playing a sport is more significant than winning or losing.

(c) The Under-19 World Cup holds a stepping-stone to first-class cricket, and winning it should not be the end-goal. (Answer)

(d) When players are below the age of 19, they do not feel accented about playing at a World Cup; though, as they age, their strength to perform well depends on the number of matches they have already played.

Explanation:

C is the correct answer- The Under-19 World Cup holds a stepping-stone to first-class cricket, and winning it should not be the end-goal.

This is clear from Dravid’s declaration that winning is not the right touchstone of achievement and that what values more is how many players are capable of moving to the next level, that is, playing first-class cricket. The information in the passage confirms none of the other options, and so, it cannot be the right answer.

1.2 Which of the resulting is the most desirable outcome of Dravid’s selection strategy from his viewpoint?

(a) The team is losing the World Cup, but five players from the team are performing first-class cricket.

(b) The team is winning the World Cup, and one player getting chosen for the national team.

(c) The team is winning the World Cup, and no player is getting selected for the following Under-19 World Cup team.

(d) The team is winning the World Cup, and five players from the team are going on to play first-class cricket. (Answer)

Explanation:

D is the correct answer- The team winning the World Cup, and five players from the team going on to play first-class cricket.

Options (b) and (c) are not as acceptable as the other options since the other choices consider more players entering the next level, which is compatible with Dravid’s selection tactics. Therefore, neither (b) nor (c) can be the right answer.

While options (a) and (b) both represent that five players going on to play first-class cricket. Option (d) has the added benefit of the team winning the World Cup – Dravid says players progressing to the next level is more valuable than winning the World Cup but does not represent winning the World Cup as unacceptable. Therefore, option (a) cannot be the right answer either.

 

1.3 Which of the resulting statements, if true, confronts Dravid’s selection strategy?

(a) First-class cricket selectors assess under-19 cricketers based on the win-loss proportion of the team they were a member of. (Answer)

(b) First-class cricket selectors assess under-19 cricketers based on their capacity to cope with injuries.

(c) First-class cricket selectors assess under-19 cricketers based on their achievements.

(d) Players who have participated in international matches face domestic competition better than those who have not.

Explanation:

A is the correct answer- First-class cricket selectors assess under-19 cricketers based on the win-loss proportion of the team they were a member of.

Since Dravid’s team choice prioritizes giving more players opportunities, rather than winning, the selection strategy described in option (a) would contradict Dravid’s plan, and therefore, this would be the correct answer.

Options (b) and (c) neither support nor oppose Dravid’s strategy, so it cannot be the right answer. Option (d) may confirm Dravid’s plan – since his plan would result in more players should be played in international matches – and so, option (d) cannot be the correct answer either.

When all the cash they collected was pooled together, ten notes of a specified classification, 12 notes of a second classification, and 16 notes of a third classification.
