Q.1) Discuss the spatial distribution of the Intensive Subsistence Farming. (10 marks)
Q.2) What are the footloose industries? Explain its characteristics with examples. (15 marks)
Q.3) Discuss the formal and informal services with examples. Also mention issues faced by them.
Q.4) What is ‘digital divide’? Explain reasons for the same with examples. (15 marks)
Question has also asked for the reasons for digital divide which you have not answered.
Good conclusion.
pointers:1 u have to atleast try to answer to the word limit…in ur answer sheet the other side of this sheet( 15 marks meets two pages in Upsc ans booklet) will be blank—it wouldn’t be a problm if ur answer already contains sufficent examples and figures. But if u dont have examples,figures , etc and u have 1 blank page it might be counter-productive
2 As Sushil said , mention the reasons….try to write sub-headings so that the examiner knows u hav understood the demand of the qn
3 conclusion: i dont know how literacy is relatd to digital divide( since many illiterates in india use smart phones) ; digital literacy is a better argument
democracy and digital divide connection is not clear to me( China has Weibo,Alibaba right?)
Yes…it’s my mistake as i wrote all answers in a hurry just for the sake of writing without properly researching…will not do that again…sorry…
pls don’t be sorry…I’m not accusing u …Its not that u did something wrong, its just that u could do something better…pls review mine and be as critical as possible…
Introduction needs improvement. It should have to the point.
Good points
Good conclusion but could have better and crisp
Keep writing
Thanks….i will improve in future…
I think intro needs improvement and you have written term food which should have been crops.
The question has asked for spatial distribution, so you should have written the names of regions as well along with map.
In map you should have shown paddy dominated and other crops dominated separately.
Need conclusion.
adding to Sushil’s comments: the emphasis should be on SPATIAL analysis…so u should answer why is it located in east asia—size of land holding, population, fertility, lack of markets( hence subsistence)….
hope its clear
It’s sooo clear…thanks…will improve in future?
Plz review @StudyVillae and @Bartman
You should have discuss the formal and informal service first + examples
Need conclusion.
For the body part i am not sure. It should be left for review by studyvillae
Q3
super answer…u could write about how more than 80% in India are employed in informal sector…..in conclusion u could drive home the point of SDG8( dcent work and economic growth… but the answer is good even otherwise
Thanks for review
Q4
good answer
pointers: about mental map of society….I would consider ISIS to be a highly orthodox lot- however they are very tech savy ( i think they popularized the Telegram app)
Yes you are right. I think , I should have written the word “generally”.
refer to Sushil kumar and Pooja’s answer below….try breaking ur conclusion into smaller sentences….the body can be written in tabular form
Tnq ..I must do
