TUTOR MARKED ASSIGNMENT


Dear Student,
Evaluation in IGNOU consists of two parts: i) continuous evaluation through assignments
and ii) term-end examination. In the final result, assignments of a course carry 30%
weightage while 70% weightage is given for term-end examination.
You will have to do three Tutor Marked Assignments (TMAs), whose total marks add up to
100 and carry a weightage of 30 %. This Assignment booklet has three TMAs for the core
course BPSC 132: Indian Government and Politics, a six-credit course.
Before you attempt the assignments, please read the instructions carefully provided in the
Programme Guide. It is important that you write the answers to all the TMA questions in
your own words. Your answers should be within the approximate range of the word limit set
for a particular section. Remember, writing answers to assignment questions will improve
your writing skills and prepare you for the term-end examination.
Submission:
You need to submit these assignments together within the stipulated time to be eligible to
appear in the term-end examination.
If you are registered for this course in July 2023, you should submit these TMAs by
30th April 2024. Those registered for this course in January 2024 session should submit
by 31st October 2024. You are, however, advised to avoid the last-minute rush and submit
the assignment well before the deadline.
Like all other assignments, this should be submitted to the Coordinator of your Study
Centre. Your Regional Centre may allow you to submit this assignment online on its
website. Please visit the website of your Regional Centre to check if an online submission
facility is available or not.
Always keep a xerox copy of the assignments with you.
The Study Centre/Regional Centre will return the assignments to you after they are
evaluated.
We expect you to answer each question as per the guidelines for each category mentioned in the
assignment. You will find it helpful to keep the following points in mind:
1) Planning: Read the assignments carefully, and go through the Units on which they are
based. Make some points regarding each question and then rearrange them in a logical
order.
2) Organisation: Be a little selective and analytic before drawing up a rough outline of your
answer. Give adequate attention to your introduction and conclusion.
Make sure that your answer:
a) is logical and coherent;
b) has clear connections between sentences and paragraphs; and
c) is written correctly, giving adequate consideration to your expression, style and
presentation.
3) Presentation: Once you are satisfied with your answer, you can write down the final
version neatly for submission. Make sure that the answer is within the stipulated word limit.
Wishing you all the best,
Faculty of Political Science
