Directions: In this section each item consists of six sentences that comprise a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The sequence of the middle four sentences has been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

S1: In a typical Indian village today, one is certain to find groups of women talking about finance.

S6: In a society where women play significant but never-recognised roles, being a part of an SHG which gives them such financial power is indeed a matter of pride.

P: Sitting there, they might proudly introduce themselves by saying that they are members of a self-help group (SHG).

Q: Alternatively, they might lend money at reasonable interest rates to members for starting small businesses.

R: They can be seen sitting under a tree, in an abandoned school building, or in the front yard of a village resident's dilapidated home, holding thick notebooks.

S: An SHG is usually a community group of 10-12 women from similar socio-economic background who pool their financial resources for taking up joint economic activities.

CDS 2 2026 Maths Question Paper (13-Sep-2026)
The correct answer is

R P S Q

S1 introduces village women discussing finance. R naturally follows, showing where such women are typically seen holding notebooks. P then has them introducing themselves as SHG members, S defines what an SHG is, and Q adds that they lend money to members, leading into S6's conclusion about pride in this role. The correct sequence is R-P-S-Q.
