All 67 Blood Relations questions the Punjab PSC asked between 2015 and 2026, each with a worked answer and the exam it came from. First 10 free to read.
15 of these 67 were set in more than one exam — the Commission reuses this topic, which is the argument for working through it rather than skimming it.
Free to read, with the worked answer and the exam each one came from. The book prints this topic in the order the Commission favours, so these are the ones to know first.
Read the passage given below and answer the question that follow. A, B, C, D, E, F, are members of a family. They are engineer, stenographer, doctor, draughtsman, lawyer and judge (not in order). A, the engineer is married to the lady stenographer. The judge is married to the lawyer. F, the draughtsman is the son of B and brother of E. C, the lawyer is the daughter-in-law of D. E is the unmarried doctor. D is the grandmother of F. There are two married couples in the family
Read the information given below to answer these questions:
Rani and Shreshtha are a married couple having two daughters, Medha and Deepti. Deepti is married to Anurag who is the son of Garima and Tarun. Nidhi is the daughter of Anurag. Komal, who is Anurag's sister, is married to Harshit and has two sons, Aman and Prem. Prem is the grandson of Garima and Tarun
Read the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:
There are six children playing football namely, G, H, I, J, K and L. G and K are brothers. L is the only sister of K. I is the only son of G's uncle. H and J are the daughters of the brothers of I's father
C is B's mother and D is C's father. So D is B's maternal grandfather. E is D's spouse, so E is B's maternal grandmother. A being B's sister does not change the relation. ```puzzle:family E -, D +, married D +, C -, parent C -, B, parent C -, A -, parent A -, B, sibling ``` So (d) Grandmother.
Ramesh has no brothers or sisters, so 'my father's son' is Ramesh himself, and 'the wife of my father's son' is Ramesh's wife. The woman in the portrait has Ramesh's wife as her mother, so she is Ramesh's daughter. ```puzzle:family Father +, Ramesh +, parent Ramesh +, Wife -, married Wife -, Woman -, parent ``` So (b) His daughter.
A is the engineer, C the lawyer, E the unmarried doctor and F the draughtsman. So B and D are the stenographer and the judge. C, the lawyer, is D's daughter-in-law. So C's husband is D's son. The judge is married to the lawyer, so that son is the judge. F is the son of B, so the judge is B, F's father, with C as F's mother. D is the grandmother. So D is the lady stenographer, married to A, the engineer. ```puzzle:family A + D -, married B + C -, married D - B +, parent B + F +, parent B + E, parent F + E, sibling ``` The two couples are AD and BC.
A is the engineer, F the draughtsman, C the lawyer and E the unmarried doctor. So B and D are the stenographer and the judge. D is F's grandmother and F is B's son, so B is D's child. C, the lawyer, is D's daughter-in-law, so C is married to D's son, that is B. The judge is married to the lawyer, so B is the judge. D, the lady stenographer, is married to A the engineer. ```puzzle:family A +, D -, married D -, B +, parent B +, C -, married B +, F +, parent B +, E, parent E F, sibling ``` So B is the judge.
Komal is Anurag's sister. So her parents are Garima and Tarun. Harshit is married to Komal. That makes Garima his mother-in-law. ```puzzle:family Rani, Shreshtha, married Rani, Medha -, parent Rani, Deepti -, parent Tarun +, Garima -, married Tarun, Anurag +, parent Tarun, Komal -, parent Anurag, Deepti, married Anurag, Nidhi -, parent Harshit +, Komal, married Harshit, Aman +, parent Harshit, Prem +, parent ``` Tarun is Deepti's father-in-law, not her maternal uncle. Aman is Komal's son, not Medha's. Nidhi is Komal's niece, not her cousin.
'The only son of my grandfather' is the woman's father. 'His brother's father' is the father of the man in the photograph, since a man and his brother share a father. So the man's father is the woman's father, which makes the woman the man's sister. ```puzzle:family Grandfather +, Father +, Woman -, Man +, Brother + Grandfather - Father, parent Father - Woman, parent Father - Man, parent Father - Brother, parent ```
A is B's brother and C is B's sister, so A and C are both children of the same parents: A is C's brother and C is A's sister. ```puzzle:family A +, B, sibling C -, B, sibling ``` So the relationship is brother–sister.
Naman is the only son of Tejpal. Tejpal is Naina's father-in-law, so Naina is married to Naman. Vineeta is Naman's daughter, and Nimmi, Vineeta's sister, is also Naman's daughter. That makes Nimmi Tejpal's granddaughter. ```puzzle:family Tejpal +, Naman +, parent Naman +, Naina -, married Naman +, Vineeta -, parent Naman +, Nimmi -, parent Vineeta -, Nimmi -, sibling ```
The father of my father is X's grandfather; the grandfather's granddaughter is X's sister (or a female cousin); the husband of X's sister is X's brother-in-law. ```puzzle:family Grandfather +, Father +, parent Father +, X, parent Father +, Sister -, parent Sister -, Y +, married ``` So (c).
G, K and L are children of one father. I is the only son of G's uncle, so I is G's cousin. H and J are daughters of the other brothers of I's father. Those brothers are uncles of G as well. ```puzzle:family Father of G +, Father of J +, sibling Father of G +, G +, parent Father of G +, K +, parent Father of G +, L -, parent Father of J +, J -, parent ``` So J is G's cousin. She cannot be his sister, because L is the only sister of G and K. For 'niece' she would have to be a daughter of G's brother or sister.

Yes. 15 of these 67 were set in more than one exam, which is why they are worth working rather than reading. Each question here carries a badge showing how many sittings asked it.
