Welcome to Day 53 of TLP Phase I. Please understand that the next 12 weeks are not meant to test your knowledge. Most of you are giving your first attempt and its really important for you to self assess yourself over the fundamentals of various subjects. And even if you have appeared for CSM before, it is always desirable to brush up your basics before you go on to attempt highly analytical and thought provoking questions asked by UPSC. TLP Phase I is designed precisely for that. The questions in this phase would mostly be direct and based on fundamentals of the subject. Please be sincere and regular in this phase of your preparation because what you build here will become the foundation of phase II of TLP.

Environment

1. Coastal ecosystem has many threats that emanate from human activities. In this regard, many suggestions have come up which include the setting up of a regulatory body. How effective is such regulation in maintaining the ecological integrity of the coastal areas? Analyse.

2. Delhi has been denied to host the junior football world cup matches post Diwali due to anticipated levels of pollution. It serves as a wake up call for all Delhites to do something substantial with respect to air quality in the capital. Discuss.

3. What are the effects of excessive sand mining on the river ecosystem? Also discuss its long term implications for livelihood security.

Current Affairs

4. Menstruation is still a taboo in 21st century India. Why? How do women suffer due to the associated stigma? How can such mentality be changed? Discuss.

5. The decision to press restaurants to open their toilets for public use is neither a wise nor a sustainable move. Do you agree? Substantiate.
