In order to encourage more young voters to take part in the political process, Government of India has decided to celebrate ________ as "National Voters Day".
28th January
26th January
27th January
25th January
The question asks to identify the date designated as "National Voters' Day" in India, which was established to encourage youth participation in the political process. This is a factual question related to important days and dates in India.
Correct Option: D) 25th January is celebrated as "National Voters' Day" in India. This day was chosen because the Election Commission of India was established on 25th January 1950. The main objective of celebrating this day is to encourage young voters to participate in the electoral process.
The question asks to identify the city in Punjab that was historically known as Ramdaspur. This requires knowledge of the historical names of prominent cities in the region, particularly those associated with Sikh history.
Correct Option: C) Amritsar was indeed known as Ramdaspur in its early days, named after Guru Ram Das, the fourth Sikh Guru, who founded the city.
The question asks to identify the government scheme with which Mission Indradhanush is related. This requires knowledge of major government initiatives and their objectives.
Correct Option: C) Child Vaccination. Mission Indradhanush was launched in December 2014 by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. Its primary aim is to rapidly increase the full immunization coverage in the country to at least 90% by 2020 (later extended). It provides vaccination against 12 vaccine-preventable diseases.
The question asks to identify which specific marine area was declared as a Marine National Park by the Government of India in 1982 for marine conservation. This requires knowledge of India's protected areas and their establishment dates.
The Gulf of Kutch was the first Marine National Park established in India. It was declared a Marine National Park in 1982. This area is known for its rich marine biodiversity, including coral reefs, mangroves, and various marine species, making it a crucial site for conservation.
A) Gulf of Kutch was declared India's first Marine National Park in 1982, specifically for the conservation of its unique marine ecosystem, which includes 42 islands, coral reefs, mangroves, and diverse marine life.
This is a question based on logical reasoning, specifically involving syllogisms and Venn diagrams. We need to analyze the given statements and determine which assumption is implicitly true based on those statements. The statements provide information about the relationship between animals, colour-blind individuals, and colourful things.
B) Some colour-blinds are animals.
Statement A explicitly states, "Some animals are colour-blind." If some animals are colour-blind, it logically follows that some colour-blind individuals are animals. This is a direct rephrasing and a necessary consequence of the first statement. Therefore, this assumption is implicit.
This problem involves analyzing statements based on the principles of syllogism and Venn diagrams. We need to determine which assumption is NOT implicitly derived from the given statements. We will draw all possible Venn diagrams for the given statements and then check each option against these diagrams.
Let's represent the sets as B (Birds), W (Wings), and F (Feathers).
Combining these, we can infer that since some feathers are birds, and all birds are wings, it automatically implies that those feathers that are birds are also wings. This satisfies Statement 2 as well.
A possible Venn diagram would show a circle for 'Birds' completely inside a circle for 'Wings'. The circle for 'Feathers' would overlap with the 'Birds' circle, and consequently, it would also overlap with the 'Wings' circle.
D) All wings are birds.
This statement is NOT implicit. From "All birds are wings," we know that the set of birds is a subset of wings. This means there can be wings that are not birds. The Venn diagram clearly shows that the 'Wings' circle is larger than or equal to the 'Birds' circle, meaning not all wings have to be birds. There can be wings that are not birds. Therefore, this assumption is not implicit.
A) Some birds are feathers.
This is implicitly true. Statement 3 directly states, "Some feathers are birds." If some feathers are birds, it logically follows that some birds are feathers. This is a direct implication.
B) Some birds are wings and feathers.
This is implicitly true. From Statement 3, "Some feathers are birds." For these birds, we know from Statement 1 that "All birds are wings." Therefore, these 'some birds' are also 'wings'. So, there are some entities that are birds, wings, and feathers. This is a valid assumption.
C) Some feathers are wings.
This is implicitly true. We know "Some feathers are birds" (Statement 3) and "All birds are wings" (Statement 1). If some feathers are birds, and all birds are wings, then those feathers that are birds must also be wings. Thus, some feathers are wings. This is also directly supported by Statement 2, "Some wings are feathers," which is an equivalent statement.
To find the third proportional to two numbers, say \(a\) and \(b\), we assume a third number \(x\) such that \(a\), \(b\), and \(x\) are in continued proportion. This means the ratio of the first to the second number is equal to the ratio of the second to the third number.
C) 75 is the correct third proportional to 12 and 30.
The question asks to identify the Article of the Indian Constitution that deals with the protection of interests of minorities. To answer this, one needs to recall the fundamental rights related to cultural and educational rights, specifically those pertaining to minorities.
Correct Option: A) Article 29 of the Indian Constitution specifically deals with the "Protection of interests of minorities." It guarantees the right of any section of citizens to conserve their distinct language, script, or culture and prohibits discrimination in educational admissions on certain grounds.
The question asks to identify which statement is NOT a purpose of the Swadhar Greh Scheme. This requires knowledge of the scheme's objectives. The Swadhar Greh Scheme is a central sector scheme for women in difficult circumstances.
Correct Option: D) Provide Government jobs to socially backward women
The Swadhar Greh Scheme focuses on providing shelter, food, clothing, counseling, medical aid, legal aid, and vocational training to women in difficult circumstances, enabling them to become emotionally and economically self-reliant. It does not directly aim to provide government jobs.
This problem involves calculating the future population of a town given its current population and an annual percentage increase. This is a compound growth problem, similar to compound interest. We can use the compound interest formula or calculate the increase year by year.
The formula for population after \(N\) years with an annual growth rate \(R\) is:
\[ \text{Future Population} = P \left(1 + \frac{R}{100}\right)^N \]B) 705600 is the correct population after 2 years, calculated using the compound growth formula.
