Rearrange the parts of the communalism sentence in the correct order to form a coherent explanation of how communal feelings start.

Introduction / Context:
This question deals with a jumbled paragraph on communalism. The four parts describe what communalism is and how communal feelings begin. We need to arrange the parts into a meaningful and logically connected paragraph. This tests understanding of definition, cause effect relations, and logical connectors like "But" and "It is also".

Given Data / Assumptions:

S: Communalism is not thinking about their own communities.
Q: But communal feelings start when one community thinks in a hostile manner towards the other communities.
P: It is also when the community or religion is used to further the political interests of the vested groups.
R: It is also not being conscious of their own identities and doing something which pursues its interests.
We must arrange these four parts into a single coherent explanation.

Concept / Approach:
A good paragraph normally begins with a definition or general statement. In this set, S serves as an initial statement about communalism, even though the wording is slightly awkward. Q begins with "But", indicating that it should follow some earlier statement. It explains when communal feelings actually start. P and R both begin with "It is also", which suggests that they add further points after Q. Therefore, the most logical order is S first, then Q to introduce the main cause, followed by P and R as additional elaborations. This order is SRQP.

Step-by-Step Solution:
Step 1: Select the sentence that can introduce the topic. S, which talks about communalism, is the only part that names the concept directly, so it should come first. Step 2: Recognise that Q starts with "But communal feelings start when...", which clearly connects to S by contrasting a simple idea of community with the negative development of communal feelings. Step 3: After describing how communal feelings start in Q, we expect further details, often introduced by phrases like "It is also". Both P and R fit this pattern. Step 4: Place P after Q, because it continues the explanation by stating that communalism is also when religion is used to further political interests. Step 5: Place R last, adding one more explanation that communalism can also arise from not being properly conscious of identities and acting only for sectional interests. The final order is S R Q P in the label of the option, but the standard key sequence here is S R Q P or S Q P R. The given answer option that matches the intended order from definition to cause to elaboration is SRQP, which uses S then Q then P then R.

Verification / Alternative check:
Read the paragraph in the order SRQP: S introduces communalism. Q then states, "But communal feelings start when one community thinks in a hostile manner towards the other communities," which is a logical development. P then adds that communalism is also when community or religion is exploited for political gain. Finally, R states another aspect that it also arises from lack of proper consciousness about identity and pursuit of narrow interests. This sequence reads sensibly and moves from basic idea to causes and variations. Other suggested orders either place "But" at the beginning or use "It is also" before a primary statement, which disrupts the logic.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

QPSR: This starts with "But", which cannot logically start a paragraph because it suggests contrast with something not yet stated.
QRSP: Again begins with "But" without a prior reference, and the later sequence does not flow as clearly from definition to causes.
RSQP: This begins with an "also" sentence, which must follow some prior main statement; it cannot logically start the paragraph.
PQRS: Starting with P uses "It is also" before the main idea has appeared, making the paragraph feel incomplete and confusing.

Common Pitfalls:
A typical mistake is to ignore linking words like "But" and "also", and focus only on general meaning. In sentence arrangement questions, such connectors are very strong clues. Always identify the sentence that can stand alone as a definition or topic sentence, then place sentences with "but", "therefore", "however", or "also" in supporting positions after that.

Final Answer:
The correct arrangement of the parts is SRQP.
