Inclusive residential facilities – UGC NET Question

Statements B and D are the wrong statements about inclusive residential facilities. Statement A is correct because safety and accessibility for all genders and persons with disabilities are central to inclusion. Statement C is also correct as non-discriminatory admission and disciplinary practices are part of equitable hostel policies. Statement B is wrong because equity requires that rules be fair rather than automatically more restrictive for one gender. Statement D is wrong because amenities such as sanitation, lighting and security directly affect safety, dignity and inclusion. Therefore, B and D together are the wrong statements.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because it selects only B as wrong and overlooks D. While B is clearly inequitable, D also misrepresents the role of amenities in promoting inclusion, so both must be marked wrong.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it chooses only D as wrong and fails to recognise the discriminatory assumption in B. Ignoring B would legitimise unequal treatment in hostel regulations.

Option C:
Option C is incorrect because it groups A, B and D as wrong. Statement A is actually correct in emphasising safety and accessibility, so including it among wrong statements contradicts inclusive principles.

Option D:
Option D is correct because it identifies both B and D as conflicting with the idea of inclusive residential facilities. It preserves A and C, which set out genuine requirements for safety, accessibility and non-discrimination.
