Essay in previous XAT - Analysis

After the test of 2 hours, the candidates were given 20 minutes to write an essay. That time the essay topic had two statements:

Poverty is a big menace in India. Due to its complexity and magnitude, most of the government initiatives fail.

Poverty is a consequence of failure of government policies due to the governments not targeting the root causes.

One had to select one of the statements and then justify the same and substantiate it with the help of relevant examples.

This was an easier task compared to the essay topic given last year where most students found it difficult to understand the statement. This was topical theme – poverty in India – and one who is updated regarding the welfare policies and schemes of government could have written the essay well.
