1. Social Disabilities:

• Denial or restriction of access to public facilities, such as wells, schools and roads. 
• Restrictions on movement were also imposed. Untouchables were not allowed to walk on roads and streets within prescribed distance of the houses or persons of higher castes.

2. Economic Disabilities :

• Exclusion from honourable and profitable employments and limited to dirty or menial occupations.
• Restrictions on style of life, especially in the use of goods indicating comfort or luxury. Riding on horseback, use of bicycles, wearing of gold and silver ornaments, all of these were forbidden in many areas. 
• Liability to unremunerated labour for the higher castes and to the performance of menial services for them.

3. Religious Disabilities: In Indian society, untouchables were subjected to various religious restrictions. They were prevented from entering temples, Monasteries and cremation grounds and could not make use of them because it was believed that these places would become impure by their touch and presence. The untouchables could not worship in the temples. Their presence was considered sufficient to defile the God.

They were not allowed to read and listen to the Holy Scriptures.D.N. Majumdar summarized the position of the untouchable castes by maintaining that these castes are not depressed in all states, the same caste may be depressed in one area but may not suffer from any social and political disability in another. The disabilities are rigid where the depressed castes are numerically small, and fewer or on the decline where they numerically strong

Where the higher castes are not numerous and the depressed castes form the bulk of population, the degree of ceremonial pollution observed is very small and often we find few disabilities attached to the inferior castes. A caste may be depressed but individual members of the caste who have succeeded in life and who are wealthy and own property have been admitted to a higher social status.

• First option:
  • It is given that 125 small but identical cubes have been put together to form a large cube
  • If we add 208 more cubes, the total number of cubes becomes 333.
  • 333 is not a perfect cube.
  • It is short of 10 more cubes to form a perfect cube.
  • If we add 10 more cubes, then the total becomes 343 which is a perfect cube.
  • Hence, the first option is incorrect.
• Second option:
  • It is given that 125 small but identical cubes have been put together to form a large cube
  • If we add 212 more cubes, the total number of cubes becomes 337.
  • 337 is not a perfect cube.
  • It is short of 6 more cubes to form a perfect cube.
  • If we add 6 more cubes, then the total becomes 343 which is a perfect cube.
  • Hence, the second option is incorrect.
• Third option:
  • It is given that 125 small but identical cubes have been put together to form a large cube
  • If we add 254 more cubes, the total number of cubes becomes 379.
  • 379 is not a perfect cube.
  • It is short of 133 more cubes to form a perfect cube.
  • If we add 133 more cubes, then the total becomes 512 which is a perfect cube.
  • Hence, the third option is incorrect.
• Fourth option:
  • It is given that 125 small but identical cubes have been put together to form a large cube
  • If we add 218 more cubes, the total number of cubes becomes 343.
  • 343 is a perfect cube.
  • Thus, we will be able to form a perfect cube from the given 125 identical cubes if we add 218 more cubes to it.
  • Hence, the fourth option is correct.

• It is given that Jaikee gets less marks than Ganesh.
• Thus, Ganesh does not get the lowest marks.
• Hence, the first option is incorrect.
• It is given that  Hitesh gets more marks than Jaikee and Kailash.
• Thus, Hitesh does not get the lowest marks.
• Hence, the second option is incorrect.
• It is given that Ishan gets more marks than Kailash 
• Thus, Ishan does not get the lowest marks.
• Hence, the third option is incorrect.
• Thus, among all the five boys mentioned, all except Jaikee do not get the lowest marks.
• Hence, Jaikee gets the lowest marks among all the boys mentioned.

"Correct Answer - Option 3 : 167

The correct answer is 167.

The explanation is as follows:

If we arrange all the alphabets starting from A to Z and start numbering them in ascending order from 1 to 26, we get the following table
 

• We observe that if we add all the numbers mentioned against each letter in the word FRIGHTENS, we get 106.
• Similarly, If we add all the numbers mentioned against each letter in the word  SIMILARLY, we get 118.

• Hence, If we add all the numbers mentioned against each letter in the word DEMONITISATION, we get 167.

Hence, the correct answer is 167.

• It is given that All cubes are round in shape.
• Let us interpret all the options as per the given information:
  • CA:
    • Figure A is not a cube.
    • This need not imply that Figure A is not round in shape.
    • Other shapes like square, rhombus, rectangle, etc too may be round in shape.
    • Figure A may be square, rhombus, rectangle, etc.
    • Hence, it can be round in shape.
    • Hence, the first option is incorrect.
  • DB:
    • Figure A is round in shape.
    • This need not imply that Figure A is a cube.
    • Other shapes like square, rhombus, rectangle, etc too may be round in shape.
      Figure A may be square, rhombus, rectangle, etc.
    • Hence. the second option is incorrect.
  • AC:
    • Figure A is not round in shape.
    • This definitely implies that Figure A is not a cube.
    • This is because it is given that All cubes are round in shape.
    • Hence, the third option is correct.
  • AB:
    • Figure A is not round in shape.
    • This need not imply that Figure A is a cube.
    • Other shapes like square, rhombus, rectangle, etc too may not be round in shape.
    • Figure A may be any of these.
    • Hence, the fourth option is incorrect.

• p ÷ q × r  implies p is the mother of q who is the daughter of r.
• Thus, p is the wife and r is the husband.
• p - q × r implies p is the brother of q who is the daughter of r.
• Thus, p is the son of r.
• p + q × r implies p is the sister of q who is the daughter of r.
• Thus, p is the daughter of r.
• p + q - r implies p is the sister of q who is the brother of r.
• Thus, p is the sister of r.

Correct option is B) I will see you tomorrow

Correct option is B) between

Box contains 6 white and 4 black marbles.

\(\therefore\) Number of ways selecting 3 marbles from 10 marbles is 

n(s) = ¹⁰C₃ = \(\frac{10.9.8.7!}{3.2.7!}\) = 120

(a) Number of ways of selecting 2 white and 1 black marble from 6 white and 4 black marbles

= ⁶C₂ x ⁴C₁

\(\therefore\) n(E₁) = \(\frac{6.5}2\times4=60\)

\(\therefore\) Probability that selecting 3 marbles are 2 white and 1 black marble is

P(E₁) = \(\frac{n(E_1)}{n(S)}=\frac{60}{120}\) = 1/2

(b) Number of ways of selecting 1 white and 2 black marble is 

P(E₂) = \(\frac{n(E_2)}{n(S)}=\frac{36}{120}\) = 6/20 = 3/10
