Unlike, (i) Britain, the Indian Constitution has a Bill of Rights. This was a break with the past and the roots of the change lay in the history of the Indian freedom. Prior to the enactment of the Parliamentary Act of 1935, demands were made (ii) India for the incorporation into the Act a Bill of Rights. This demand was rejected by the British Government following its own tradition that freedom was best preserved not by constitutional provisions but by adherence to the rule of law and to unwritten practices and conventions. This was not (iii) to the Indian mind which had long suffered from discriminations, disabilities and oppressive acts of the foreign rulers. To Indians, as to most modern minds, a Bill of Rights was an essential feature of a complete Constitution. It has been said that "the Indian reaction" (in enacting the Bill of Rights), "like the American reaction, is in large measure a product of the British rule." The Indian Bill of Rights (iv), in a certain measure, the pattern of the Constitution of the United States of America, but it has also borrowed (v) from other Constitutions, and some of its provisions are indicative of the peculiar difficulties of the institutions of the country itself.

<p>Read the paragraph and answer the questions that follow. Are people ___ (i) ___ or even typically, guided by reason, rather than, say, by passion or impulse ? If the norms of rational behaviour are not followed by people in their actual behaviour, how can we seek the same answer to two rather different questions : what would be rational for a person to do ? And what would the person actually do ? Shouldn't the economists who make such double use of maximisation - whether through explicit reasoning ___ (ii) ___ by implicit presumption - be invited to apply their minds to this ? A number of economists have indeed paid attention to systematic departures from rationality in actual choices made by people. One argument that has been invoked, in a line of reasoning proposed by Herbert Simon, goes by the name of bounded rationality. It concerns the possibility that people may not, in all cases, look for fully ___ (iii) ___ choices because of their inability to be sufficiently focussed. There is considerable evidence, powerfully presented, for example, ___ (iv) ___ Kahneman, Slovic and Tversky, that people may fail to understand adequately the nature of the uncertainty.</p>
