I guess traditions is better than cliques, though even I find clique okay.
@RoadKill said:@ankita14 Ancestors kaise honge? Current gen intellectuals ki baat ho rahi hai.. :/ @fisherking Why heir and not heirs? Usi mein latak gaya main toh. Clique fits fine, I think.
Collective noun. So we need it to be singular right ? So, heir.
@RoadKill said:@ankita14 Ancestors kaise honge? Current gen intellectuals ki baat ho rahi hai.. :/ @fisherking Why heir and not heirs? Usi mein latak gaya main toh. Clique fits fine, I think.
Here the intellectuals refers to a group.Hence the word should refer to a group and hence cannot be plural.
@fisherking Uff. Now I am not sure if clique carries a negative tone in general. But even if it does, how is one going to say that this line does not have negative emotions at all? "Boast" is a bit negative, "elitist" is also often used in the negative sense... Clique ko lekar kya dushmani hai. It can very well refer to Indian Intellectuals boastfully claiming exclusive awesomeness, in a negative tone. :S

There there ...
@YouMadFellow 😐 Abey peeth mat thap thapa, kuch samajh hi nahi aa raha ki ek line se tone kaise judge kiya jaaye. Esp when there are other somewhat negative words as well.

Tum IIM-C main jaane ke baad yeh nuances discuss kar sakte ho faculty ke saath,ab ke liye toh jaise answer hain waise sweekar lo na .Plus pehle waale blank main heirs was not appropriate so that option is anways ruled out

Haan tab hume chup chap next click kar dena chahiye ... Maine jab pada to maine dekha "if they are so inclined" .. Aisa laga ki isse pehle indian intellectuals ki udayi hui hai.. aur author bol raha hai.. ki if they want to they can sort of defend themselves by saying that they are heir to the great indian intellectual tradition.. blah blah !

Maybe it's eliminated because of heirs/heir

Para. compl. -
A key tipping point for this decades-long class warfare of the rich vs. the working class can be found in President Reagan's decision to break the air traffic controllers' union when it initiated a strike in 1981. Reagan's manoeuvre was an audacious gamble to head backwards in terms of economic and social justice, and it paid off. The weak, disorganized Left at the time was unable to mount a concerted, effective campaign against Reagan's union-busting move, and the public didn't seem to care.
(a) The lesson was learned: going backwards works.
(b) Compare those 'sounds of silence' in America then with now how citizens in other countries are
reacting to the draconian “austerity” policies in Europe.
(c) These class-war realizations have led to millions of protesters in the streets.
(d) But in America, those in the shrinking middle class remain in a kind of social narcolepsy
@aimingCAT12 Arey panga negative ka nahi hai isme. Boastful and elitist are often used in a negative sense as well, so that part of the solution is not too convincing. The clincher is "heir" vs "heirs". Treat Indian intellectuals as a group, and you get the correct answer. If you look at each intellectual, fir galat ho jaayega (heirs).

Pull
(a) By cheating his master and slow poisoning him, the servant thought that he has been able to
pull the fast one.
(b) She saw the ambulance coming up behind her and pulled over.
(c) They waved as the bus pulled away.
(d) The clever leader pulled strings to mitigate the chances of a deserved defeat
