Model Question Paper


based on Predicted Pattern

English Language

Q1-8) Read the passage given below and then answer the questions given
below the passage.
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council failed to reach a consensus on critical
issues, including the laws that need to be passed in the winter session in order to
stick to the April 1, 2017 rollout date set by the Centre. With the pending legislations,
including the draft model GST law, as well as the contentious issue of dual
administrative control over assesses between the Centre and the States remaining
unresolved, the GST Council would now meet on December 11 and 12. While the
effect of demonetization on the economy and on the states is outside the purview of
the GST Council, Mr. Jaitley said that, on the behest of the state representatives, he
wrapped up the Council meeting early and allowed the states to voice their
grievances on demonetization. Some of the states, the minister said, suggested an
increase in the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management targets while others
called for a relaxation of the ways and means limits. Our target is still April 1, and
our options are anyway limited, Mr. Jaitley said. The earliest we can bring it in is
April 1 and the latest is September 16, which is five months and 15 days later. I am
happy that all the states raised their voices on demonetization,
West Bengal Finance Minister Amit Mitra told reporters following the meeting.
Because revenue will be affected, all states are deeply concerned about
compensation since earlier compensation was based on the single issue of GST. Now
there is the dual issue of GST and demonetisation. Earlier in the day, Kerala Finance
Minister Thomas Isaac said that demonetization would result in a fall in production
worth Rs. 2.5 lakh crore, adding that the cash crunch would also impact state
revenue. Tax collection can be 50 per cent lower this month as there is no business
in Delhi markets, Manish Sisodia, Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi tweeted on
Saturday. If so, it would be hard to pay salaries of govt employees same concern is
being expressed by many state FMs in the GST council in the presence of Finance
