✔️ Correct – \"The weight of his literary expectation came, eventually, to rest on me.\"
This shows her father's influence created pressure to write in Hindi. Option 2: \"She felt obligated to carry on the legacy of Premchand.\"
✔️ Correct – \"It seemed wrong for a granddaughter of Premchand even to be thinking so.\"
This reveals a sense of duty and guilt about not writing in Hindi. Option 3: \"Her family was chauvinistic about the Hindi language.\"
❌ Incorrect – \"Our family had a certain linguistic pride.\"
Pride is not the same as chauvinism; there’s no sign of hostility toward other languages. Option 4: \"She was in awe of the extensive reach of her grandfather’s writing.\"
✔️ Correct – \"Everyone had a story to tell about their personal engagement with his fiction... The list was long.\"
This shows her amazement at how widely Premchand's work touched lives.

Hence, option 3 will give you marks (as we're looking for the incorrect statement).","upvoteCount":210,"url":"https://www.afterboards.in/cuet-past-year-questions/cuet-eng-2024-01/3","dateCreated":"2024-02-10T00:00:00.000Z","author":{"@type":"EducationalOrganization","name":"AfterBoards","url":"https://afterboards.in"}}},"mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://www.afterboards.in/cuet-past-year-questions/cuet-eng-2024-01/3"},"dateModified":"2025-09-10T20:47:00.380Z","isAccessibleForFree":true}
