UGC NET/JRF, June 2013, English Paper II Answer Key

This is not an official key and neither it claims to be so because a few answers may be wrong too. It’s an attempt to make ‘the’ key. As we have observed many times that the key UGC releases, happens to be without any justification and thus quite questionable. Even after complaining it hardly changes. Sometime, they just throw wrong key to validate their questions. So, let’s make ‘the’ key before UGC releases theirs’.


Initially, I have tried to give it a shape and it’s all over to you now. So, bring out your question paper(s), check with it and if you have any objection(s) with this key given here, please comment below and it will be updated. So, let’s do it together.
