The Supreme Court has the legal right to involve itself, because of large reasons. For the first reason, The race was tight enough, and no matter what, one of them was going to win. Bush was already 'winning', and so there really wasn't a point of recounting. Also, another reason is that a country cannot be without a leader. If this continued, the US will not have been following it's guideline (if they continue the previous president until finish counting), or will be leaderless. Also, the Supreme Court is there to regulate rules, and at this point, it is just exercising its rights.

False

Explanation:

Yet every one of these disasters has actually happened somewhere, and many real communities have already suffered a substantial number of them."

Hence, It is FALSE that Carson's "Silent Spring" begins with an anecdote about a real-life town.

Indentify the reasons for the failure of Muhammad Bin Tughlaq's project?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The timing of the implementation of his administrative policies was very wrong. For example, he raised land taxes in the Doab region to fifty percent of the produce at the time when the area was under the grip of famine. People were unable to make payments, which led to a revolt.

He transferred his capital from Delhi to Daulatabad (as the latter was centrally located) to control the south and north India. But later, he realised that it was difficult to manage the northern part of his kingdom from Daulatabad, a city located in the extreme south.

Muhammad Tughlaq introduced token currency called tanka, but this experiment proved to be a big failure. Over the time, the silver currency was replaced by forged homemade coins. This resulted into a monetary loss.
