Q4• ID the person who has painted the following. (pic follows)• X, who at this point in the 1920s planned to become a painter,
moved in with his brother and devoured not only films but also theater and circus performances, while exhibiting his paintings and working for the left-wing Proletarian Artists' League. However, he was never able to make a living with his art, and, as he began to perceive most of the proletarian movement as "putting unfulfilled political ideals directly onto the canvas", he lost his enthusiasm for painting.
• Posthumously, he was named "Asian of the Century" in the "Arts, Literature, and Culture" category by AsianWeek magazine and CNN, cited as "one of the [five] people who contributed most to the betterment of Asia in the past 100 years". He has accepted and Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement.

Q9• An ushanka or trooper hat, is a Russian fur cap with
ear flaps that can be tied up to the crown of the cap, or tied at the chin to protect the ears, jaw and lower chin from the cold. The thick dense fur also offers some protection against blunt impacts to the head. While no match for a helmet, it offers protection far superior to that of a typical beanie cap should the wearer fall and hit his or her head against ice or packed snow. (Pic follows)
• Why would a bunny wearing an Ushanka (locally known as a "Lei Feng hat") with a red star and a red scarf around its neck and a sack on its back be in news w.r.t. India recently?

Q10• X launched as an a la carte education marketplace —
experts could teach a class on any subject, and anyone could attend, for $20 or $25. But this past March, it pivoted to a $10 per month, all-you-can-eat model. And unlike most education startups, it doesn't use professors from top-notch universities; you need not be a Ph.D. to be able to teach something useful. And on the student side of things, it's easy — and relatively inexpensive — to become a lifelong learner.
• Lesson learnt via this model: Leverage the intelligence and expertise of normals to create a massive intellectual marketplace.
• ID X. It gets its name from what a person does to earn in this model.

Q25.It is recognised by the Election Commission of India as a 'National
Party'. To date, it happens to be the only national political party from India to have contested all the general elections using the same electoral symbol.

The specific charge was that they as belonging to such a movement were seeking "to deprive the King Emperor of his sovereignty of British India, by complete separation of India from imperialistic Britain by a violent revolution.“
