      Hi Jojo
      Good introduction but try to avoid writing numerical figures . For example, instead of writing 4 countries , write four countries.
      Give proper headings.
      Write the way forward, you can write that reconciling the capacity to resist armed revisionism while nudging the region’s geopolitics towards cooperation as opposed to conflict should be India’s, and the Quad’s, priority.
      Work on handwriting and improve the presentation to fetch better marks.
      Work on content.
      Keep writing, you will succeed.

      Hi Prabhat
      Please mention your payment id.
      Good introduction but write some more data on quad like it has a shared objective of ensuring a free, open and prosperous Indo-Pacific region. The idea of grouping was first mooted by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in 2007.
      You have discussed the factors for consideration in a decent manner but try to write these points under subheadings to present your answer in a better structured manner.
      Good conclusion.
      Work on presentation, underline keywords.
      Keep working hard.

      Hi Arun
      There is no need to share the screenshot of payment, you can just mention the payment id.
      First thing, you answer looks monotonous, work on it, use headings and subheadings and underline important stuff.

      Some good points but need to add more content .
      In the way forward, you can also write that reconciling the capacity to resist armed revisionism while nudging the region’s geopolitics towards cooperation as opposed to conflict should be India’s, and the Quad’s priority.
      Work on presentation.
      Keep writing , you will improve.
