navdeep says: March 26, 2012 at 8:01 PM Open market operations is a part of monetary policy and monetary policy is also called as credit policy so ans to that question should be credit policy not fiscal policy.

Rate This

Reply

Naren says: March 27, 2012 at 2:29 AM @Navdeep firstly, thanks for justification of your ans. Almost in all standard books of GK, this question contains Monetary Policy as one of the given options. Here some confusion, Monetary Policy = RR+RRR+CR (short term rates)and SLR+BR (long term rates). OMO is the principle tool of Monetary policy used by RBI to buy/sell government securities in order to infuse liquidity in the systemit means OMO is a credit control measure.. as you have mentioned in your comment Monetary Policy is also known as Credit Policy, so OMO is part of Credit Policyi agree with you. What is there in Fiscal Policy? only short-term rates? regards Naren

Naren says:

March 27, 2012 at 5:57 PM @Pankaj You are right. As they ask about combustion of candle, In theory, a candle is made of a solid hydrocarbon called paraffin. When the solid burns, the hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. The reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases heat to the atmospherre along with the other products thanks for pointing out this error regards Naren
