Hello Aspirants,
I am herewith posting/sharing the Answer Key for Jammu Kashmir English NET Paper II. This is model answer key and not authentic key. I have tried my best to provide ideal model answers to all the 50 Questions in Paper II. It is my great pleasure to inform you that almost 40 to 42 questions (out of 50) are directly from my Study Notes and Online Guidance Course. Before moving to the key, let me clear some points –

1) It is model answer key and prepared by me (Anil S Awad), not final answer key. Please tally the key with the Authentic Key published by the competent authority, when it will be issued.

2) Please don’t ask such irrelevant questions, like – what will be the merit/cut off/qualifying marks for Open/SC/ST/OBC etc. It is improbable to anyone to guess it now. 

3) Instead of waiting for the result, I humbly advise you to start preparing for July 2016 Net as well as the upcoming SET Exams.

4) It is my humble request not to modify the key – any answers (or even my name) for purpose of sharing/re-posting it.

5) Some fake professionals are misusing my name, and calling me either as their teacher or student to impress the NET/SET aspirants and repost the key with their names. I appeal you to keep alert from such misleading and fake professionals. Don’t believe them.

6) You can share this key on your timeline from my time or my Facebook Page – English Net Study Notes and Online Guidance 

https://www.facebook.com/pages/English-Net-Study-Notes-and-Online-Guidance/800638513316780

Our shows are more than will, for still we prove
Much in our vows, but little in our love.

A poem by Toru Dutt

Three happy children in a darkened room!
What do they gaze on with wide-open eyes?
A dense, dense forest, where no sunbeam pries,
And in its centre a cleared spot.--There bloom
Gigantic flowers on creepers that embrace
Tall trees; there, in a quiet lucid lake
The white swans glide; there, "whirring from the brake,"
The peacock springs; there, herds of wild deer race;
There, patches gleam with yellow waving grain;
There, blue smoke from strange altars rises light,
There, dwells in peace, the poet-anchorite.
But who is this fair lady? Not in vain
She weeps,--for lo! at every tear she sheds
Tears from three pairs of young eyes fall amain,
And bowed in sorrow are the three young heads.
It is an old, old story, and the lay
Which has evoked sad Sîta from the past
Is by a mother sung.... 'Tis hushed at last
And melts the picture from their sight away,
Yet shall they dream of it until the day!
When shall those children by their mother's side
Gather, ah me! as erst at eventide?

Beside the clock’s loneliness
And this blank page where my fingers move.
Through the window I see no star:
Something more near
Though deeper within darkness
Is entering the loneliness:
Cold, delicately as the dark snow,
A fox’s nose touches twig, leaf;
Two eyes serve a movement, that now
And again now, and now, and now
Sets neat prints into the snow
Between trees, and warily a lame
Shadow lags by stump and in hollow
Of a body that is bold to come
Across clearings, an eye,
A widening deepening greenness,
Brilliantly, concentratedly,
Coming about its own business
Till, with a sudden sharp hot stink of fox
It enters the dark hole of the head.
The window is starless still; the clock ticks,
The page is printed.
