13 Exam Focus — what examiners typically ask from Unit 4

1. Long questions: "Explain the salient features of the Nepali legal system." / "Describe the factors that influenced the formation of the Nepali legal system." / "Explain how laws are made, implemented and interpreted in Nepal." / "Explain the hierarchy and jurisdictions of courts in Nepal." / "Discuss tribunals and quasi-judicial bodies with constitutional limits." 2. Short questions: indicators of the legal system; ordinance (Art. 114); fundamental vs general vs specific laws; Constitutional Bench; Judicial Council; five writs; Bench Officer; judicial committee of the local level. 3. Trick areas: students often confuse Art. 133 (SC) with Art. 144 (HC) writs, and forget that specialised courts cannot be created for a particular case. Always mention the article numbers — precision earns marks in this unit.
