Introduction [0:05]
Namaste students! All in One Coaching Shivri Narayan welcomes you. Today, we're bringing you the model answer key for the CGTET Paper 2 exam that took place on February 1st, 2026. We know it took a bit of time, but we wanted to make sure it's as accurate as possible. This covers all 150 questions, so you can check how many you got right and whether you're qualifying for CGTET or not. We've been very careful in creating this model answer, but if you still have any doubts, please let us know in the comments. We'll definitely double-check and discuss it.
Thoughts on the CGTET Paper [1:13]
Many of you must have taken the exam yesterday, and honestly, even I was a bit frustrated with the question paper. The level of the questions isn't the problem; it's fine. A few questions here and there are expected. But is the time given – 2 and a half hours – enough for this question paper? Did they even assess this before setting the paper? Even if you're super fast, it's impossible to solve this paper in 2 and a half hours. I think even the people who made the paper should try solving it once. Is this a joke? Is this a punishment for asking for jobs? Because if you can't qualify for TET, how will you ask for a job? Is that why this was done?
Issues with Syllabus and Importance of Each Mark [2:47]
Paper 1, Paper 2 – it's all wrong. It's a joke with the youth. This isn't the first time we're seeing questions from outside the syllabus. Questions from 11th and 12th grade are being asked when your syllabus is only up to 10th grade. If that's the case, then don't even release a syllabus! Every single mark is so valuable. Many candidates score around 74. something, and if they don't pass this exam, they can't give the next teacher recruitment exam. If you haven't qualified, you can't give it.
Exam Standard and Preparation Tips [3:51]
What are they trying to prove? That the standard of Chhattisgarh exams is high? Fine, set a high standard, but at least give enough time for the youth to attempt all the questions. I don't think anyone could solve the entire paper in 2 and a half hours. They probably realized later that they knew the answers but didn't have enough time and had to guess. This is not how you should play with the future of the youth. People work so hard, studying day and night, setting aside their financial problems.
Lesson for Aspirants and Importance of Strong Basics [4:56]
This is also a lesson for those who prepare for exams in just one or two months. If you're doing that, then remember that Vyapam exams now require experience. By experience, I mean you need to prepare thoroughly. There was a time when our friends used to say they were weak in math, so they'd focus on other subjects and still pass. Some of them even got jobs. But that won't work anymore. You need to be strong in every subject. Anyway, we'll talk about other things later. Let's get back to the topic. If this exam didn't go well, there's nothing you can do about it now. Keep preparing for the future.
Child Development and Pedagogy: Q1-Q2 [6:01]
Okay, let's start with our first question. This is from Child Development and Pedagogy. Heredity is a fascinating and mysterious topic for psychologists and biologists.

This time, the definitions were quite easy; otherwise, they often give names of psychologists we've never even heard of.
The next question is related to statements and reasons. Statement: Gender affects learning. Reason: Social stereotypes create prejudice that affects students' learning and performance. Now, if you ask me simply, does gender affect learning? I'd say no. But if you read the reason, then gender does affect learning. If the reason wasn't there, and they asked in one word, I'd say gender doesn't affect learning. But based on the reason given, it does. Option A is correct.
Child Development and Pedagogy: Q5-Q6 [9:49]
Next question: What is the purpose of diagnostic evaluation? The right answer is to assess the current knowledge and skills of the students. The main purpose of evaluation is to assess their current situation. So, option B is the right answer.

Next question, number 13. Which of the following is not a characteristic of continuous and comprehensive evaluation? We're talking about continuous and comprehensive evaluation. Holistic approach, feedback, continuous evaluation, student-centered – all these are characteristics of continuous and comprehensive evaluation. But here, it says limited feedback. If the word "limited" wasn't there, then this would also be correct. So, since it says "not," the right answer is option B.
Moving on, question number 14. What is formed by the combination of two reproductive cells in the human body? We all know this. It's formed by the joining of sperm and ovum from the male and female. 23 chromosomes from each side join to form a cell with 46 chromosomes. So, the right answer is option B.

Moving on to question 16, social development's Bobo doll experiment is related to whom? When you talk about social development, you talk about Bandura. So, the Bobo doll experiment is related to Bandura.
Child Development and Pedagogy: Q17-Q18 [18:43]
Next, what main changes should be made for an inclusive classroom? Flexible curriculum, teacher training, changes in the environment, separate classroom arrangement. If we talk about this, there shouldn't be a need for a separate classroom. So, M shouldn't be there. We're teaching by changing the environment. If a child is very weak, we make them sit with children who know more than them. So, that's a change in the environment. Then teacher training, making the curriculum flexible. So, J, K, L, the right answer is option C.
Now, question 18. According to Gagne, arrange the hierarchy of learning in the correct order. The right answer is option D.

Now, let's look at question 21. Language development is a complex process. Many obstacles arise in the language development of children. Which of these is a barrier related to language development? Delayed speech and imitation. Delayed speech means stuttering or stammering. Imitation means following someone. So, these two are barriers. J and L, our option C, and that's why this is our answer.
Moving on, question 22: What is the method to train emotions? See, to train emotions, suppression... We've often been taught that we shouldn't suppress anyone's emotions. Suppressing emotions means crushing them, stopping them. We shouldn't stop emotions; we should gradually control them, regulate them. So, suppression shouldn't be there. The right answer is option D.
Child Development and Pedagogy: Q23-Q24 [24:11]
Next, we see question 23. Choose the correct option for the statement and reason given below. Statement: The development of a child continues from birth to death. Reason: Biological and social factors contribute significantly to human development. But the responsibility for biological and social development lies only with the parents. What? If the responsibility for social development was only with the parents, then why would we send them to school? We've learned that social development happens in schools, right? We've learned that social development happens on the playground. So, does that mean parents take them outside to play? Do parents teach us in school? No. So, the statement is correct, but the reason is wrong. The right answer should be option C.
Moving on, question 24. This is a matching question. The right answer for this question is option A.

Moving on, creativity is mainly related to new creation. Which measure is not correct in the education system for deprived children? The presence of inferiority complex. If we're teaching deprived children and we're making them feel inferior, saying they're poor, then that's wrong. You're a teacher. Whether a child in your class is rich or poor, you should treat everyone equally. You shouldn't have an inferiority complex. So, the right answer is option D. This shouldn't be there.
Next is question 28. Field theory... In this, you can directly mark Skinner for active conditioning theory. That's enough to get your answer. The answer to 28 is option B.
Child Development and Pedagogy: Q29-Q30 [27:40]
Here, another question related to development is given. Infancy, adolescence... How many times have I made you practice this? This is related to the last practice I gave you. In infancy, the feeling of self-love... Even from this one practice, your answers are being made. The answers to this will also be B. In childhood, curiosity is strong. In adolescence, sexual power... And in adulthood, there is responsibility. You become a bit experienced. Option B is the right answer.
Moving on, question 30: Disgust... You've studied McDougall's 14 basic instincts, and disgust is aversion. So, that's it.
Hindi Grammar: Q31-Q32 [28:35]
Now, we have Hindi. After 30, 31... I'm going back and forth like this. You can match it. What word is used for "worthy of asking"? Worthy of asking means "prashna yogya." What is "prashna yogya" called? Prashtavya. Prashtavya. Option D. So, for question 31, it's D.
After this, see here, the correct order of the following vowels. When you write vowels, you write "a, i, u, e," then "ri," then "ai, o, au, ah." If you know that "ri" stays in the middle, then you can easily take this. Option D is the right answer.
Hindi Grammar: Q33-Q34 [29:28]
For 32, you see here, you have to match the correct pairs. Idioms are given. So many idioms related to "kanta" are given. "Kanta dur hona" means "badha dur hona." "Kanta" is a "badha." "Kante bichana" means "adchan dalna." "Kante par lotna" means "bechain hona." And "kanto par ghasitna" means "sankat mein dalna." So, the right answer is option A.
For this, from the point of view of composition, two actions... We call the point of view of composition the point of view of action. You've studied transitive and intransitive. So, in this way, transitive and intransitive, L, M, L, M, is the right answer. The types of verbs are asked.
Hindi Grammar: Q35-Q36 [30:18]
Wow, what a beautiful scene! See, this is an exclamation. This is an exclamation. Here is a full stop, and this is a comma. Here is also a comma, and this is a full stop. So, exclamation, comma, full stop. There are so many pictures. This is the use of symbols. In 35, C will come. The word that indicates the विशेषता of a संज्ञा or सर्वनाम is called विशेषण. What things does it indicate the विशेषता of? It indicates the विशेषता of आकार. For example, "aam bada hai, aam chota hai." It indicates the अवस्था. For example, "mohan budha hai." It indicates the रूप, "mohan sundar hai," and the स्वभाव, "mohan achha hai." So, it also indicates his स्वभाव. So, in this way, it indicates all the विशेषता. Option D is the right answer.
Hindi Grammar: Q37-Q38 [31:12]
Let's see this. Which ones are ओष्ठव्य? It says in ओष्ठव्य, "pa, pha, ba, bha, ma." "Pa, pha, ba, bha, ma," this is right. "Ka, ka" ahead, J, K, and M. J, K, M is our right answer. So, see, the serial number is ahead and behind, right?
Hindi Grammar: Q39-Q40 [31:31]
Now, I'll go to 39. In 39, you have to arrange तत्सम and तद्भव, it says. "Bhrata" is दिख ही रहा, we can see it. "Bhrata" तत्सम, the first option, just one, if you saw just one, you would get everything. The first should be तत्सम, so "bhrata" तत्सम, just one word is दिख रहा. तद्भव is "khet." "Khet" is तद्भव, which comes from संस्कृत. The तत्सम word for "khet" is "क्षेत्र," we call "क्षेत्र" "khet." So, in this way, you could take it. From just this much, you would get it. Well, from just one option.
Moving on, if we move on, question 40. In question 40, we have काल here and वाक्य here. I've made you practice this related to काल. Most of what I've made you practice on YouTube. So, you have to remember that. Many questions have come from there. सामान्य वर्तमान काल, संभाव्य वर्तमान काल. First of all, सामान्य वर्तमान काल. In that, there's "ta hai, ti hai," so this is the third. A's three, there's only one in A, you can directly take it from this. "Ta hai, ti hai, te hai" is सीधा. In संभाव्य, there will be a word like "शायद." In सामान्य भूतकाल, "दिए, खाए," this type of thing stays. And from that सामान्य, from सामान्य भूतकाल only, I taught you how to make आसन्न भूतकाल. If "मैंने उसे पैसे दिए हैं" happens, then that would be संदिग्ध, what do we call it? आसन्न भूतकाल. I told you those things also. For now, the right answer is option C.
Hindi Grammar: Q41-Q42 [33:28]
Now, has this side been done or not? Yes, this side is left. By stopping the पुनरावृति of संज्ञाओं, what is the work of making the sentences सुंदर? So, क्रिया... By stopping the पुनरावृति of संज्ञाओं, meaning you don't have to use संज्ञा संज्ञा. Instead of that, we have to use another word. So, instead of संज्ञा, we use another word. What is that thing? सर्वनाम. So, the right answer will be option B.
Now, we see this, question 44. So, from here, see, the statement is "aadmi, aurat, top" are विदेशज words. Absolutely, they are विदेशज words because "aadmi" is an अरबी word. The trick that I told you in class, all those words are getting stuck in that trick. So, in this way, you can easily know their answers. The right answer is option A.
Hindi Grammar: Q43-Q44 [34:21]
Now, we move on to सेंधव. The पर्यायवाची word for सेंधव is अश्व, घोड़ा. Now, we move on. I gave you a quiz based on अर्थ. I've also told you on YouTube. "A se अर्थ, A se आठ," saying that. So, in this way, the right answer to question 45 is eight types.
Hindi Grammar: Q45-Q46 [34:48]
"Unche niche pair padna." "Unche niche pair padna" means you've fallen into बुराई. Now, in the same way, let's see some more questions. First, let's see this. Then we'll see that side.
In this, what विराम are there, they're saying. This is विस्मयबोधक. Meaning आश्चर्य वाला. This is अल्पविराम. This is अर्धविराम. This is डश, डश is called निर्देशांक. And this is प्रश्नवाचक. Which option is it in? It's in option A.
Hindi Grammar: Q47-Q48 [35:19]
In the same way, we're seeing from here for this question. "Bhalu naach dikhata hai." This वाक्य is an example of कर्म कारक. Easily ask the question, if you get the answer, then it's कर्म. What does the भालू show? So, the भालू shows नाच. It's कर्म, meaning it's कर्म कारक. It's known like that. But sir, in कर्म, when we study कारक, the विभक्ति of कर्म is "ko," so "ko" is not दिख रहा. So, if "ko" is not दिख रहा, then it's considered शून्य विभक्ति. Therefore, both are correct. Option A is our right answer.
Hindi Grammar: Q49-Q50 [35:54]
The statement and the reason are both correct, and it's the correct व्याख्या. Let's see question 50. Choose the correct statement regarding लोकोक्ति. I've made you practice this कूट. Such a question on YouTube itself.
Hindi Grammar: Q51-Q52 [36:20]
Yes, everyone has had a problem with time. No one is alone. It's given in such a way. He himself doesn't know how many hours it will take to solve the question that he has made. We ourselves don't say two-four minutes ahead and behind. The time that has been difficult is such a congested time. And earlier, there used to be 3 hours for 150 question papers. When there weren't कूट वाले, even then there used to be 3 hours of time. And think, the question pattern is longer than that. Even after that, the 2 and a half hours of time was कम ही. Now, choose the correct statement regarding लोकोक्ति. So, the अर्थ of लोकोक्ति is व्यापक. We know this. The अर्थ is व्यापक, लाक्षणिक. Although only लाक्षणिक is given in this. It tells the qualities of अभिधात्मक and this type also. This पद... This बात is absolutely correct. This बात is absolutely correct. This is पदबंध or वाक्यांश. It's not वाक्यांश. It's a स्वतंत्र वाक्य and पूर्ण वाक्य. So, therefore, this is wrong. This is correct. This can समा in any वाक्य. When it's a स्वतंत्र वाक्य, then why will it समा in a वाक्य? So, therefore, this is wrong. For this, we made both of these correct. Option B is the right answer.
Hindi Grammar: Q53-Q54 [37:48]
To be शहीद in युद्ध. What is the correct मुहावरा for to be शहीद in युद्ध? For to be शहीद in युद्ध, "ladai mein khet aana." "Ladai mein khet aana" is what we call to be शहीद in युद्ध.
Now, we move on to question 51. In question 51, which of the following is an example of a मिश्र वाक्य? This is a साधारण वाक्य. This has "aur" लगा, it's a संयुक्त वाक्य. The questions that have "jo, jaise, jise," this type of question is a मिश्र वाक्य. "Ladka bhojan karta hai," this is also a साधारण वाक्य. So, only here, just L was what? Our मिश्र वाक्य.
Moving on, if we move on, महानदी... If it only said नदी, then it would be जातिवाचक. But महानदी, we're talking about one नदी. I've also told you about this in the उदाहरण on YouTube when I was teaching संज्ञा. In "pativrata," which समास is there? There is बहुव्रीहि समास, but it's संबंध बहुव्रीहि. In this, the संबंध is being told with पति. "Pativrata," so because of this, what समास is this called? It's called संबंध बहुव्रीहि. Option A is the right answer.
Hindi Grammar: Q55-Q56 [39:12]
Moving on, the question related to this तत्सम word, this is an easy question. They've given a very easy one. तत्सम word is "chheer." The right answer is option D.
Now, we move on. Next question. Here, we see. Now, here, at the time of the formation of the state of Chhattisgarh, how many जिले were there? At the time of the formation of the state of Chhattisgarh, there were 16 जिले. Although the statement was also given for this. There were 16 जिले at that time. There were 96 तहसील, 146 विकास खंड. So, this is absolutely correct.
Chhattisgarh State Related: Q57-Q58 [39:53]
Matri Rajya... See, Madhya Pradesh was formed on November 1, 1956, and Chhattisgarh was formed on November 1, 2000. If you take out the difference between these two, the value will come to 44. So, therefore, the right answer is 44 years. It could also be done like this.
Now, see here, after the विभाजन of the जिले, the 98 of the बिलासपुर जिले... Before 1998, after the विभाजन of the अविभाजित बिलासपुर जिले, currently... See, what word has been used here? The word "currently." So, the word "currently" has been used here. So, how many जिले are there? If we say just now... See, here, two types of सोच are developing. Now, the one who is giving the exam, what सोच is he doing it with? Although if we say currently, then all four are currently there. But he might be saying it with this सोच that after the 1998 में जो के बाद जो विभाजन हुआ, in that विभाजन, we say that it was only बिलासपुर, जांजगीर, and कोरबा. But if we say based on the वर्तमान जिले, then these four have happened from बिलासपुर. Now, what his सोच is, that depends. What सोच he's doing it with, that depends. So, you have to remember that. What he's सोच रहा, that depends. And therefore, he can take both. He can take anything from these two.
Teaching Methods: Q59-Q60 [41:42]
Now, we see here, this साहचर्य विधि, श्रुत लेख विधि, श्रवण... It's being told related to श्रवण कौशल अक्षर बोध. So, if we see this, the right answer for this is option A. Option A is the right answer in this. This is an easy question. Well, you can easily do this.
Next, we see. If we move on, next, our 59 and 60, both. In 59 and 60, we have to tell the reason. With the समवेत पाठ विधि, the अध्यापक himself reads any गद्य or पद्य, and he tells the छात्र to अनुकरण him. So, this is correct. समवेत पाठ is like this only. With this विधि, शुद्ध वाचन in the छात्रों... See, when the छात्र is सही तरीके से... See, the teacher is reading correctly, so the छात्र will अनुकरण him. So, if the छात्र अनुकरण him, then the छात्र will also learn to उच्चारण correctly. So, this is absolutely saying that the संस्कार of शुद्ध वाचन is formed, and his स्वर also becomes सधता. So, therefore, when the teacher is बोल के पढ़ा रहे, then the children have to दोहराना behind him. So, therefore, the right answer to this is option A. The statement and the reason are both correct, and it's also the correct व्याख्या.
Let's see one question. To read लिखित सामग्री silently without making a आवाज. To read चुपचाप is what is called मौन पठन. So, this option D is the right answer.
English Comprehension: Q61-Q62 [43:21]
Now, there are English questions. There's a passage for English, and if we read so much passage, it will take time. I'm सीधा telling you the answers for this. The right answer for the 61st question is, "Why do scientists wish success to a mountaineer?" The right answer for this is option A: "In the hope of obtaining valuable information on atmospheric conditions of the earth." Option A is the right answer.
Moving on, after 61, the next question is 62. For the 62nd question, "Who considers mountaineering a perennial source of joy?" The right answer for this is option C: "Those who have eyes that can appreciate the beauties of nature." So, the right answer is option C.
English Vocabulary: Q63-Q64 [44:26]
What is the antonym of the word "primitive"? It's asking for the antonym of "primitive." "Primitive" means ancient. So, modern. Modern means modern. Option D will be the right answer.
Moving on, mountaineering helps scholars who study... This is being said. There's a कूट for this. I'll make it a little smaller. This is the 64th question. The right answer for this is option B: J, K, L. J, K, L is the right answer for this. This doesn't go to space. It doesn't do mountaineering in space.
English Comprehension: Q65-Q66 [45:24]
Now, we move on. The next question is, "Who does the sound of the waterfall?" This type of question. The right answer for the 65th question is option C: "Like joyful clapping." This is our right answer.
Now, we move on to the 66th question. In the 66th question, it's being said to match the correct pairs. If we do C's four, then we have two options. So, for the 66th question, the 66th question, the right answer for this is... We'll take this answer, option C. For 66, you have to remember.
English Grammar: Q67-Q68 [46:55]
