SECTION – I: ENGLISH
Directions (Q. 1-15): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
Certain words are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.
The United Nations has had a main role in establishing international norms against terrorist acts and
their codification into international law. To the world body and some of its specialized agencies we must give
credit for the existence today of an international legal regime consisting of a dozen of conventions that broadly
criminalize a wide range of terrorist acts that the world has experienced during the last four decades.
The problem of international terrorism was inscribed on the agenda of the UN General Assembly in
1972 due to the increasing incidence of acts of violence against innocent civilians, more specifically at that time
the killing of Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics. But that was not the first time the international
community dealt with terrorist acts. Before that, within ICAO, the problem of hijacking was tackled and all but
codified by the three conventions: 1963 Tokyo Convention, 1970 the Hague Convention and 1971 Montreal
Convention. But it was 1972 that the world organization confronted the problem of international terrorism both
politically and legally, and in its entirety, rather than concentrating on any specific acts of terror.
The debate that year in the Sixth Committee showed how deeply polarized the UN membership were at
the time, particularly on the basic issues, such as what kind of activity constitutes an act of terrorism and
whether such activity could in certain situations be justified and not be subject to international sanction. Part of
the debate concentrated on the causes of terrorism versus measures against terrorism. A number of countries
pointed out that there are certain situations in the world, of a political or economic nature, that give rise to the
acts of terrorism and that the problem of terrorism cannot be tackled effectively unless such causes are
removed. Other countries regarded the discussion of causes as an attempt to offer justification for terrorist acts
and insisted on urgent measures against terrorists and their sponsors. The facts that colonialism and apartheid
were still very much alive in 1972 and that a number of liberation movements were either recognized by the UN
or supported by many of its members further complicated the debate. It is a testimony to the great complexity
and political sensitivity of these issues that they are still eluding agreement today, thirty years later. Much of
the same debate is still going on, even though the differences in positions have been considerably narrowed,
what with the end of the Cold War was inevitable.
