42) Deepa Mehta's Fire was under fire from the country's self-appointed moral police.

(a)India provides a rich market for unscrupulous antique dealers

(b)Most Indian families have heirlooms which can be sold at high prices to Europeans and Americans

45) The world production of sugar has been reported to be very scarce as compared to the global sales for four years. The demand for sugar is extremely high but the supply has been low for quite some time now. This could be because of the awful weather and also because some chief sugar growers have switched to high-priced jute. The price of sugar has soared in response to the phenomena of the demand supply disparity. The price of sugar now equals that of jute.

(a)Sugar production is profitable only when the price of sugar is as high as that that of jute

However, there are scientists who have also contributed plenty of evidence and asserted that aliens do exist.
