Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/phrases have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions
Jagir Singh has sold red onions at a market in south Delhi every day for the past half-century.Perched on an upturned crate wrapped tight against the chill air he offers pyaz a staple for much Indian cooking, for 60 rs a kilo the most he can remember.Business is brisk but most customers pick up only a small handful of onions.That is just as well Wholesale supplies are tight he says and the quality is poor.
As Indiaβs economy grows by some 9% a year food prices are soaring In late December the commerce ministry judged that food inflation had reached 18.3% with pricey vegetables mostly to blame.Officials have made some attempts to temper the rise in the past month scrapping import taxes for onions banning their export and ordering low-priced sales at government-run shops. But there is no quick fix
Heavy rain in the west of India brought a rotten harvest Vegetables from farther afield-including a politically sensitive delivery from a neighbouring country are costly to move on India crowded pot-holed roads. Few refrigerated lorries and poor logistics mean that much of each harvested is wasted Newspapers allege hoarders are cashing in
The biggest problem are structural Food producers hampered by land restrictions archaic retail networks and bad infrastructure fail to meet extra demand from consumers It was estimated in October that a 39% rise in income per person in the previous five years might have created an extra 220 million regular consumer of milk eggs meat and fish Supplies have not kept up with this potential demand
The broader inflation rate may be a less eye watering problem than the onions suggest The central bank has lifted interest rates steadily in the past year and is expected to do so again later this month Headline inflation fell to 7.5% in November down by just over a percentage points from October though it is still above the central bankβs forecaste of 5.5% for March.

Read the following passage carefully and answer the question given below it Certain words/phrases have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the question.
India is rushing headlong towards economic success and modernisation counting on high-tech industries such as information technology and biotechnology to propel the nation to prosperity Indiaβs recent announcement that it would no longer produce unlicensed inexpensive generic pharmaceuticals bowed to the realities of the world Trade Organisation while at the same time challenging the domestic drug industry to compete with the multinational firms. Unfortunately its weak higher education sector constitutes the Achillesβ heel of this strategy. Its systematic disinvestment in higher education in recent years has yielded neither world-class research nor very many highly trained scholars scientists or managers to sustain high-tech development.
Indiaβs main competitors-especially China but also Singapore Taiwan and South Korea are investing in large and differentiated higher education systems. They are providing access to a large number of students at the bottom of the academic system while at the same time building some research-based universities that are able to compete with the worldβs best institutions. The recent London Times Higher Education Supplement ranking of the worldβs top 200 universities included three in China three in Hong Kong three in South Korea One in Taiwan and one in India. These countries are positioning themselves for leadership in the knowledge-based economies of the coming era.
There was a time when countries could achieve economic success with cheap labour and low-tech manufacturing, Low wages still help but contemporary large scale development requires a sophisticated and at least partly knowledge-based economy India has chosen that path but will find a major stumbling block in its university system
India has significant advantages in the 21st century knowledge race.It has a large higher education sector the third largest in the world in terms of numbers of students after China and the united states It uses english as a primary language of higher education and research It has long acdemic tradition Academic freedom is respected There are a small number of high-quality institutions departments, and centres that can from the basic sector in higher education The fact that the states rather than the central Government exerise major responsibility for higher education creates a rather βcumbersomeβ but the system allows for a variety of policies and approaches
Yet the weaknesses far outweigh the strengths India educates approximately 10 per cent of its young people in higher education compared to more than half in the major industrialised countries and 15 per cent in China Almost all of the worldβs academic system βresembleβ a pyramid, with a smaller high-quality tier at the top tier.None of its universities occupies a solid position at the top A few of the best unversities have some excellence The University Grants Commissionβs recent major support to five universities to build on their recognised strength is a step towards recognising a differentiated academic system and βfosteringβ excellence These universities combined enro; well under one percent of the student population.
