What is the length of the Chittorgarh-Udaipur section taken up for six-laning?
- A.73.5 km
- B.83.5 km
- C.93.5 km
- D.103.5 km
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 93.5 km. This is the length of the Chittorgarh-Udaipur stretch of NH-76 in Rajasthan that was to be widened to six lanes under the concession agreement with Uchit Expressway Private Limited. The arbitration arose from that agreement, and the tribunal set up under the Society for Affordable Redressal of Disputes largely upheld the stand of the National Highways Authority of India, thereby safeguarding public resources. Options A, B and D give 73.5 km, 83.5 km and 103.5 km respectively, and none of these is the correct length of the section. Figures of this kind are favourite material for objective papers because they are easy to set and easy to confuse, so the exact distance, the name of the section, the highway number and the state should all be committed to memory together.
