SOL DU BA PROGRAMME SOLVED QUESTION PAPER JUNE 2017

2. Answer any two of the following questions in about 75-100 words each :

i) Do you think Tara is a good wife and mother ? Give reasons for Your answer.

Ans – Tara is a good mother not a wife. Tara to give her revenge a grand finale chooses to have an affair with Abhay’s best friend and very cleverly puts an end to the affair, the moment she discovers that she has conceived a child. She announces the news to her husband and attributes it to his improved good health. Abhay is puzzled over this new development and is suspicious about the child’s paternity. Tara, however,
had been so careful and circumspect in her affair with Abhay’s friend, that Abhay finds no grounds for his suspicion. Abhay of course is not a fool. He tamely accepts the child, although he is not totally convinced that he is the father. You will of course, at this point recall his meeting with the doctor and his reluctance to talk about it. Tara now has what she wants, a child and a girl child at that.

But Tara is now a more mature person and as a mother is determined not to make the same mistake as her own mother. She is determined to give her daughter a good education—an education that would culminate in a career, making her daughter independent and self-sufficient. Even the lullabies she sings are of brave women warriors and not of tame submissive women.
