Kerala University MBA Entrance Question Paper

Here I am providing the questions of MBA Entrance Question Paper and for detail question paper I am uploading a file which you can down load for free:

It is said that the civilization and culture of a country are judged by the status it bestows
on the women. Vedic literature says that God dwells in the house where women are
worshipped. The extract of Indian culture lies in its respect to the mother, the father
and the teacher. The mother is regarded as the highest deity, as the originator and
sustainer of life. The society which follows freedom to its women and enables them to
make a suitable contribution to its development is an ideal society. It is worthy of being
called civilized and cultured. Women possess more fortitude than the men folk.
Women know how to face the reverses in love and fortune. They know how to die for
love and duty. They survive the calamity which would break down many men. Nothing
can be more touching than the sight of a soft-hearted woman who suddenly utilizes her
moral force to become the consoler to her depressed father or despairing husband.
According to some scholars, the word ‘woman’ means one who relieves man of all his
woes.
In ancient India, women enjoyed full respect and honor and were regarded as the better
halves of men. No sacrifice was complete without women participating in it. They
enjoyed equal right with men with full liberty to receive education and prepare themselves
in the manner that was deemed fit to face the strenuous battle of life. They had full
voice in the settlement of matrimonial relations. The custom of holding swam amber
gave them full liberty to choose their life partners.
History is full of prominent women in various fields of human endeavor. Women have
proved to be great patriots. Rani Durgavati, Chandbibi, Rani of Jhansi and Razia
Sultan have left behind indelible memories of their patriotic fervor in the minds of all
Indians. During India’s struggle for freedom, women worked shoulder to shoulder
with men and made a remarkable contribution.

PASSAGE – II
Every technology has its positive and negative sides. It is the social process that
controls the use and application of a technology which determines whether a particular
technology delivers more good than bad. Unfortunately the social process controlling
the use and application of large dams has been extremely week in India. Studies on
corruption show that corrupt institutions focus much more on the ‘hardware’ of a
technology rather than on its software. Whether it is corruption or plain ignorance, it is
a matter of fact that the software of the vast irrigational resources created by large
dams has been totally ignored, especially the dimensions of equity and sustainability.
How should the water be used ? What should be the cropping patterns ? How should
the water be shared ? How are we going to deal with the problem of resettlement ?
Many such questions remain unaddressed in large irrigation systems built around big
dams. The problem of resettlement is going to grow, if nothing else, because of
population growth. A watershed that supported one lakh people, and in the years to
come, will today support even more. Will it be eassy to resettle so many people ?
Many large dams, especially in the humid regions, have not brought many benefits.
Even where they have boosted agricultural production, as in the arid, semiarid and
sub-humid areas, the irrigational resources, in most cases, have been concerned by the
more powerful farmers to grow water-intensive, but high-value, crops like rice and
sugarcane leaving many poor farmers without water. In any case, large dams mainly
benefit farmers in the plains and not farmers in the hill and mountain regions which
constitute a large part of land area where a number of poor farmers live.
The ultimate problem is that even if the most optimistic projections for large dams and
inter-basin transfers were to become a reality, a very substantial part of India will not
get irrigation facilities. Until now, the Government has not come up with a real
programmed to address the problems farmers in existing rain fed agricultural lands
face. It has simply left these farmers in misery, destitution and poverty. This is where
the use of the local rainfall endowment and dependance on local water harvesting,
whose potential is not small to provide not only stability but also increase productivity
is critical.

a) How to make use of the negative effects of particular technology
b) How to upgrade a technology for the society
c) How to make but a particular technology more beneficial for mankind
d) How to make a technology echo-friendly
11. What do you mean by the statement that corrupt institutions focus much more on
the ‘hardware’ of a technology rather than on its ‘software’ ?
a) Such institutions pay attention to the technical or machinery side of a technology
rather than on its applications of mankind
b) Such institutions think only on money making from a technology rather than on
its results
c) Such institutions only judge the upper par of a technology an not its inner part
d) None of these
