Are these MCQs authentic?[/QUOTE] [B][I][COLOR="Sienna"]Yes they are authentic. They haven't been taken from any book. Rather I have checked each and every mcqs from Internet, verified the answers and then posted here. In start Maroof Bhai had posted from a book which was full of errors and mistakes. Later I corrected those also. You can rely on these. However errors still may be there. But yes these have been solved taking significant care. [/COLOR][/I][/B] |

2. The term “Opiniojuris” signifies:
(a) Just opinion (b) The belief that a certain practice is obligatory as a matter of law (c) Decision of publicists on law (d) None of these Shouldn't the answer be C?. Opinio Juris is the legal opinion of Jurists on the matter, its definitely not a belief that a certain practice should be obligatory. The only problem with C is the word 'decision', which isn't what opinio juris is, its not a decision, but an opinion by an author on law. But given the history of printing errors and typos in the exam, the safest bet should be C. |
I checked all the answers, they are correct. I marked two that you missed.

Declarations are of different type, they may be informal instruments, informal agreements, resolutions or proper treaties. Depending on type, they may or may not be subject to ratification (source: J G Starke : An introductions to International Law) Answer of 15 is C. Territorial asylum is the basic right of each state under Customary law as an extension of its sovereignty, but extra territorial has to be legally established in each case depending on circumstances (J.G. Starke, The Asylum Case) Answer to 16 is B, because according to Art 14 of Universal Declaration of Human Rights, every person has the right to [B]SEEK[/B] asylum, not the right to [B]GET[/B] asylum.

Contiguous zone
I do not agree with the following statements
"Originally Posted by Tassawur View Post (9) Contiguous Zone is limited to a maximum of (a) 25 miles (24 nautical mile ) (b) 50 miles (c) 12 miles (d) None of these Option "(c) 12 Miles" and "(d) None of These (24 miles)" are right answers as far as I think "Contiguous Zone is an area of water not exceeding 24 NMI from the baseline. It thus extends 12nm from the edge of the territorial sea." Though in the above said question neither BASELINE nor TERRITORIAL SEA are mentioned so we may pick 12 miles as answer that is Contiguous Zone from the edge of Territorial Sea. Hope you got it." First of all option (a) 25 miles can not be the right answer as 25 miles is equal to 21.72 nautical miles and [U]NOT[/U] equal to 24 Nautical miles from the baseline. Second is that you have mentioned that option (c) 12 miles and option (d) none of these both are right. FPSC can not give such an MCQ which has both right answers or more than one right answer so your this statement that both are right is also fallacious and based on assumptions. Third is that you have mentioned that in the question neither baseline nor territorial sea are mentioned so we may pick 12 miles as answer is also unsubstantiated. This is because whether or not the baseline or territorial waters is mentioned, 12 miles can not be the answer. In other words even if the question mentions the distance from territorial waters, still 12 miles can not be the answer. Because, 12 miles is equal to 10.42 nautical miles. If the question has mentioned a territorial waters, still 12 miles or 10.42 nautical miles is not the right choice. In that case 13.8 miles would be the right choice which is equal to 12 Nautical miles. And that option has not appeared in the given 4 options. So, all your provided arguments collapse here. The zones are most of the times measured in nautical miles. But, if the Mcq has answers in miles, then first you have to convert them in to Nautical miles to come up with the right answer. After that, if you find a right choice, only then choose the correct one. Or, sometimes if the answers are in miles, the first search for the right answer in miles. If you dont find the right answer in miles, try to convert in to nautical miles then check it. If you still do not find the right distance, then choose option (d) None of these The correct answer is option (d) None of these |
