Read the following passage and answer the Question Nos. 4 to 9 :
The decisive shift in British Policy really came about under mass pressure in the
autumn and winter of 1945 to 46 – the months which Perderel Moon while editing
Wavell’s Journal has perceptively described as ‘The Edge of a Volcano’. Very
foolishly, the British initially decided to hold public trials of several hundreds of the
20,000 I.N.A. prisoners (as well as dismissing from service and detaining without trial
no less than 7,000). They compounded the folly by holding the first trial in the Red
Fort, Delhi in November 1945, and putting on the dock together a Hindu, a Muslim and
a Sikh (P.K. Sehgal, Shah Nawaz, Gurbaksh Singh Dhillon). Bhulabhai Desai,
Tejbahadur Sapru and Nehru appeared for the defence (the latter putting on his
barrister’s gown after 25 years), and the Muslim League also joined the countrywide
protest. On 20 November, an Intelligence Bureau note admitted that “there has seldom
been a matter which has attracted so much Indian public interest and, it is safe to say,
sympathy … this particular brand of sympathy cuts across communal barriers.’ A
journalist (B. Shiva Rao) visiting the Red Fort prisoners on the same day reported that
‘There is not the slightest feeling among them of Hindu and Muslim … A majority of
the men now awaiting trial in the Red Fort is Muslim. Some of these men are bitter that
Mr. Jinnah is keeping alive a controversy about Pakistan.’ The British became
extremely nervous about the I.N.A. spirit spreading to the Indian Army, and in January
the Punjab Governor reported that a Lahore reception for released I.N.A. prisoners had
been attended by Indian soldiers in uniform.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions 26 to 31 :
London’s phenomenal growth was probably at its fastest in the sixteenth century,
a period when the population was growing everywhere. Many people were attracted to
the rapidly growing port, which handled upto 90% of total English foreign trade and
gave rise to a wide range of ancillary industries. Other sectors provided goods and
services for the court, which now settled permanently in the capital, and for the
growing numbers of the rich and ambitious who were attracted by court’s presence.
This concentration of the wealthy made London a great leisure centre and the main
purveyor of professional services, especially in medicine and law. Population growth
now tended to become cumulative. More people needed even more people to provide
them with goods and services that they required to survive in a large city. London was
always an unhealthy place and mortality rates were much higher than elsewhere in the
country, sometime rising to catastrophic heights, as in the terrible plagues of 1603,
1625 and 1665, the last of which killed 80,000 people, 1/6th of the total population of
the city. Such high death rates coupled with rather low fertility, meant that London
could never grow by its own natural increase. In the century after 1650, when London
continued to grow but the English population remained fairly stable, immigration to the
city drained the countryside of people and gave London its highest-yet population. It
has probably then, in the early eighteenth century London of Defoe and Hogarth, that
the city also had its greatest significance as a school centre and a school of manners and
ideas for the rest of the country.

28. After 1600 A.D., the demography of London was characterised by

of over 80,000 people
(C) a rise in population through natural growth
(D) population stability
29. Examples of the economic hegemony of London in the seventeenth century include
