UGC NET Paper 1 GA 2011 June Solved Paper

‘Myth’ is a traditionally held false belief or idea; ‘reason’ is the argument provided for substantiating/validating an idea; ‘experience’ is practical contact with, or observation of, facts or events; ‘conviction’ is a firmly held belief or opinion based on experience or reason.
