The lecturer’S examination was conducted by the Uttar Pradesh Secondary (Madhyamik) Education Service Selection Board on August 17, in which 90 percent questions of the Hindi-subject paper and the words used in their alternatives, syntax, basic facts in the given option, grammar, linguistics completely impure. The sad thing is that in such important examinations, the responsibility of preparing the question paper is entrusted to those people, who have neither understanding of language-grammar-linguistic nor literature. All these questions have been compiled from somewhere, otherwise what should be the style of the question; The way punctuation marks, especially connectors and quotation marks are used, they must have been understood. Undoubtedly, such questions need to be put in the dock. All questions and options bearing such marks are incorrect. I openly challenge all the persons associated with this question paper.
Now here are the student fatal acts of the concerned questioner :–
Question 1 itself is wrong; Because in it the name of the poet of ‘Barwai Namika’ has been asked, whereas the name of Rahim’s composition is ‘Barwai Nayika’. Question 2 mentions ‘Uttaramacharita’, while the original book of Bhavabhuti is named ‘Uttararamcharitam’. Question 4 is – “Is the prefix used in one” This question itself is misleading. It will be here– In which of the following the prefix is used? None of the options in question 12 is correct. The question is- ‘Show small light round and edged plate’ In this sentence there will be two commas and one full stop mark, which is not there in the option. The second fact is the adjective-word ‘halaki’, not ‘halki’. For this, the dictionary of ‘Gyanmandal Ltd.’ etc. can be seen. In question 13, ‘Hain’ will be used in place of ‘Hay’, the originator of free verse in Hindi. Question 18 itself is wrong; Because the original book of Dandi is ‘Daskumarcharitam’ and not ‘Charita’. The syntax of question 19 is incorrect; Because poetry is ‘composed’, not ‘written’. Question 40 itself is wrong. Amir Khusrau’s composition is – “Ze-haale miskin makun taghaful durai nainan baatiyan”. It has been presented in a twisted manner in the question paper. In question 55, in place of ‘Prakashan kal ‘Prakashan-kal’ will be there. ‘Prakashan kal’ has no meaning. In Question 56 the meaning of ‘Etraj’ has been asked, while ‘Etraj’ is not a word at all; The correct word is ‘E’Tiraz’/’Etiraz’ which is an Arabic-language word. ‘Ek Vachan’ used in question 58 is incorrect; correct is ‘Ekvachan’. In question 59, in the question related to ‘Nai’ (correct Nayee) poetry’, in the ‘A’ option, ‘Bodhon’ will be replaced by ‘Bodh’ and in the ‘C’ option, ‘Adhikatar’ will be in place of ‘Adhikansh’. In question 60, in the substitute for ‘Aankhein bichhana’, in place of ‘Prayashchit’, ‘Prayashchitt’ shall be there; Because ‘Prayshchit’ is a meaningless word. In question 75, in place of ‘Puraskarta’, ‘Puraskartta’ will be there. Question 96 The name of Rajesh Joshi’s book ‘Ek Din Bolenge Ped’ has been described as ‘Pend’. In question 125, the name of Pant’s creation is mentioned as ‘Jyotsana’, whereas that composition is ‘Jyotsna’.
In addition to these there are ‘other’ errors as well. Now the question is, have the examination-organizing officers become dutyless? They all deserve to be punished outright. Will the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh take any concrete step towards this?
