Q76. You are a lady officer. Your male minister has a proven frivolous reputation with ladies. He has come to your district on visit and has desired that you should meet him for lunch in his room in the Circuit House to discuss certain urgent matters which remain unspecified. On your polite refusal he is likely to create a scene. You will
(a) Attend the lunch along with a team of your trusted subordinates who are also reporting to the same minister
Answer choice (a) is best. Presence of other officers would neutralize the risk of Minister's frivolity. This would get the perfect score of one.
Answer choice (b) is passive. Ibis is shifting tile officer's problem to a superior. Which superior would ask a minister to cancel a meeting and on what ground? This answer would get zero score.
Answer choice (c) implies bold approach. Often this would work great, but a small risk of creating a scene would be there. It is better to avoid that potential risk to reputation. '1 his would get a score of 0.75.
(d) This may work if the visit of the Minister is infrequent because the state is large or may be his constituency may be far off. But this tactic may not work always. It is a tactical move, and deserves a score of 0.25.
