UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B, C and E correctly describe the Nyaya distinction between pramāṇa as means of knowledge and prameya as the objects known, and give perception and inference as standard examples. D is false since the same object can be known via multiple pramāṇas. Hence the true statements are A, B, C and E only.

Option A:
Option A is correct because it includes both the conceptual distinctions and the exam-oriented statement, while excluding D, which restricts prameya in a way Nyaya does not accept.

Option B:
Option B is incomplete as it leaves out E, failing to mention common exam classification tasks.

Option C:
Option C is incorrect because it omits A, leaving out the definition of pramāṇa as a means of valid knowledge.

Option D:
Option D is wrong since it includes D (false) and omits B (true).
