 DU LL.B. Entrance Test – 2018

1. Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out
of the four alternatives:
Civil and political rights and socio-economic rights do not exist in. a state of
antagonism. The conditions necessary for realising or fulfilling socio-economic rights
do not postulate the subversion of political freedom. The reason for this is simple.
Socio-economic entitlements must yield true benefits to those for whom they are
intended. This can. be achieved by eliminating rent-seeking behaviour and by
preventing the capture of social welfare benefits by persons who are not entitled to
them. Capture of social welfare benefits can be obviated only when political systems
are transparent and when there is a free flow of information. Opacity ensures benefit
to those who monopolize scarce economic resources. On the other hand, conditions
where civil and political freedoms flourish ensure that governmental policies are
subject to critique and assessment. It is this scrutiny which sub-serves the purpose of
ensuring that socio-economic benefits actually permeate to the underprivileged for
whom they are meant. Conditions of freedom and a vibrant assertion of civil and
political rights promote a constant review of the justness of socio-economic
programmes and of their effectiveness in addressing deprivation and want. Scrutiny of
public affairs is founded upon the existence of freedom. Hence civil and political rights
and socio-economic rights are complementary and not mutually exclusive.
According to the passage, assertion of rights____.
A. is frowned upon
B. must be discouraged
C. promotes just social policies
D. is desirable
