Which bilingual magazine will be unveiled at the INS Chilka passing out parade event?
- A.Ankur
- B.Sagar
- C.Prerna
- D.Nausena
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Ankur, the bilingual magazine produced by the trainees, which will be unveiled at the valedictory function presided over by Vice Admiral Sameer Saxena. Options B, C and D offer names that sound plausible for a service publication but are not the magazine named in connection with this event; they test precise recall rather than a general sense of the occasion. The same function will see awards presented to meritorious trainees, to the champion division and to the best instructor. The parade itself, fixed for 13 November 2026, marks the end of 16 weeks of ab-initio training for more than 3,300 trainees, the largest batch to pass out of INS Chilka, and it will be streamed live on the Indian Navy's official social media accounts.
