What is the theme of the 10th India Mobile Congress, held at Yashobhoomi, New Delhi?

The correct answer is more than 100. The scale of the tenth edition is set out in a cluster of figures: an exhibition area of 60,000 square metres, participation from over 100 countries, more than 2,000 technology use cases, over 400 startups and more than 900 thought leaders, besides industry partners, exhibitors, investors, incubators and accelerators. Options A and B, more than 50 and more than 75, are wrong because they understate the participation. Option D, more than 150, is wrong because it overstates it; no such count is given. The minister stressed that the real measure of the event is not the head count but what comes out of it: ideas becoming products, partnerships becoming investment and research reaching public services and everyday use.

The correct answer is the Department of Telecommunications and the Cellular Operators Association of India. The India Mobile Congress is put together jointly by the Department of Telecommunications, which comes under the Ministry of Communications, and the industry body COAI. Option A is wrong because the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India is the sector regulator and NASSCOM represents software and services, and neither organises the event. Option C is wrong because the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology runs a pavilion at the show but is not an organiser. Option D is wrong because the Centre for Development of Telematics is a research body named by the minister as part of the innovation chain, not a co-host. Learn the pair with the venue, Yashobhoomi in New Delhi, and the theme of the tenth edition.

The correct answer is Samriddh Gram. The minister made special mention of this award-winning initiative of the Department of Telecommunications, whose Samriddhi Kendras show how a single digital base can carry government services, health care, schooling, farming and village enterprise to rural communities, demonstrating that connectivity and home-grown innovation can support inclusive growth. Options A and C, BharatNet Udaan and Digital Gaon Mission, are wrong because no such names appear in the account of the interaction. Option D, Sanchar Saathi, is wrong because it was not the initiative cited here. The same remarks framed the shift from 'Made in India' to 'Designed, Developed and Made in India', and named ASPIRE and the Centre for Development of Telematics, along with universities, startups and industry partners, as the bodies that must carry research through to products and export markets.

The correct answer is Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. The Department of Telecommunications presented a curtain raiser for the second conclave at the valedictory session, and it is scheduled from 27 to 29 October 2026 at that venue, guided by the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser and organised by CSIR along with twelve participating ministries and departments, on the theme 'Creative Minds, Catalyzing Science, Empowering Technologies'. Option A is wrong because Yashobhoomi hosted the 6G symposium itself, not the coming conclave, which makes it the trap in this set. Options C and D are wrong because neither venue is mentioned. The three days hold plenary talks, nine thematic technical sessions, panel discussions, exhibitions and business meetings, and the Department of Telecommunications will lead the session on Intelligent Networks and Quantum Communication.

The correct answer is 2023, the Alliance having been set up in July of that year. It is an industry-led collaborative platform that brings together telecom service providers, industry, startups, academia and research institutions to advance the country's 6G ambitions, and it works on indigenous research and innovation, the creation of intellectual property, engagement with international standards and partnerships for an affordable, secure, sustainable and globally interoperable 6G ecosystem. Options A, B and D are wrong because none of those years is the year of its founding; they are placed close to the right answer because questions on founding years usually turn on a single digit. Candidates should tie the Alliance to its goal of contributing to the IMT-2030 roadmap and to the wider national aim of a developed India by 2047, the hundredth year of independence.
