UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B, C and E are correct, whereas D and F are wrong and together form the correct set of wrong statements. Ethical practice requires respecting confidentiality, avoiding stereotyping, upholding dignity and allowing respectful disagreement. Misrepresenting outcome data is deceptive, and mocking students in public undermines trust and psychological safety. Therefore D and F are the statements that clearly violate ethical communication norms.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because it treats D only as wrong and overlooks F. While D is certainly unethical, F also promotes a harmful and disrespectful strategy. Since the question asks for all wrong statements, identifying only D makes the option incomplete.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it selects F only as wrong and ignores D. This fails to recognise that deliberately providing misleading outcome data is also unethical. As both D and F conflict with professional ethics, focusing only on F does not answer the question fully.

Option C:
Option C is incorrect since it treats C, D and F as wrong, even though C correctly describes respecting students’ dignity and voice. Including C among wrong statements misrepresents ethical classroom communication. Thus this combination is logically inconsistent.

Option D:
Option D is correct because it marks D and F as the wrong statements while accepting A, B, C and E as correct ethical guidelines. It clearly distinguishes respectful, transparent communication from deceptive and humiliating practices. Hence this option accurately identifies the problematic statements.
