objections and clearifications (SAT D) -
Q.26. Free Trade of goods among nations is called
(A) Privatisation                  (B) Liberalisation                 (C) Globalisation          (D) Exclusion
Answer given in the official answer key is (C) i.e Globalisation
My answer is (B) i.e Liberalisation
Removing barriers or restrictions set by the government is what is known as liberalisation. With liberalisation of trade, businesses are allowed to make decisions freely about what they wish to import or export. The government imposes much less restrictions than before and is therefore said to be more liberal. (last lines, page No. 64, Class X NCERT Economics Book)
Globalisation is the process of rapid integration or interconnection between countries. MNCs are playing a major role in the globalisation process. More and more goods and services, investments and technology are moving between countries. (page No. 62, Class X NCERT Economics Book)
So the correct answer should be (B) Liberalisation
Q.32. "Durand line" is the boundary between :
(A) India and Pakistan (B) India and China  (C) Pakistan and Afghanistan (D) India and Afghanistan
Answer given in the official answer key is (C) i.e Pakistan and Afghanistan
My answer is, it should be BONUS question, as both (C) Pakistan and Afghanistan and (D) India and Afghanistan is correct answer.
Officially India does share a boundary with Afghanistan, however that is in Kashmir area right now occupied by Pakistan. Durand line is the line demarcating boundary between India and Afghanistan. It was demarcated in 1896 by Sir Moretimer Durand.
Recently National Security Advisor Ajit Doval said - India shares a 106-km border with Afghanistan which people do not factor in, national security advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval said on Friday, hinting both at India's claim to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and the threat that withdrawal of Nato forces from Afghanistan poses for internal security in India.

Q.38 Which National Highway connects Amritsar with Kolkatta via Delhi ?
(A) N.H.1           (B) N.H.2              (C) N.H.4                 (D) N.H.8
Official answer key says N.H.2
according to me this question is Bonus
The map on page no. 83, Chapter No.7 Geography NCERT Book of Class X clearly shows that N.H.1 is between Amritsar to Delhi and from Delhi to Kolkatta is N.H.2
