Which body released the Telecom Consumer Protection (Thirteenth Amendment) Regulations, 2026 on 22 September 2026?

The correct answer is Voice-and-SMS-only vouchers for validities of 30 days and less. Under the amendment, wherever an operator offers a voice-SMS-data special tariff voucher with a validity of 30 days or less, it must also offer a voice-and-SMS-only voucher of the same validity at an appropriately reduced price. Operators must also offer a pack that renews on the same date every month, falling back to the last day in shorter months, and at least one longer voice-and-SMS pack.

The other options invent products that the regulation does not cover. TRAI's concern, after the Twelfth Amendment of 2024, was that operators had listed only a handful of voice-SMS packs, concentrated on long validities, so low-income users who rely on a basic phone or a second SIM could not buy a cheap short pack. The new rule targets exactly that gap.

The correct answer is 2047. The President said the country is moving ahead with the national goal of building a developed India by that year, a hundred years after independence, and described what such a country would look like: quality education and healthcare reaching everyone, science and technology used for human welfare, equality of opportunity, full use of the potential of women and youth, and a life of dignity for every citizen. She added that universities and young people have an important role in reaching these goals. Options A, B and C name earlier years that are sometimes attached to other national targets, such as energy or climate commitments, but the Viksit Bharat goal is fixed to the centenary year of independence. Candidates should attach the year firmly to the phrase, because it recurs in scheme and speech questions alike.

The correct answer is Vadodara, in Gujarat. The President attended the 75th annual convocation of the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda in that city, and the university takes its name from the ruler of the former princely state of Baroda, which is the older name of Vadodara itself. That link between the two names is what the question is really testing. Option A, Ahmedabad, option B, Surat, and option D, Rajkot, are other major cities of Gujarat, and each is home to universities of its own, but none of them hosts this institution. The President noted that the university has spent 75 years bringing several streams of knowledge together and said higher education institutions must remain alert and dynamic in that direction as the country works towards the goal of a developed India.

The correct answer is the President of India, Droupadi Murmu. She attended the 75th annual convocation ceremony of the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda at Vadodara in Gujarat and addressed the graduating students, telling them that education will be meaningful only if the country and society benefit from it. Option A, the Prime Minister, is wrong because the release comes from the President's Secretariat and names the President alone as the dignitary at the ceremony. Option C, the Vice-President, is a common distractor in convocation questions because Vice-Presidents also attend such events, but that is not the case here. Option D, the Union Education Minister, is likewise not named in this release. In her address the President pressed the case for a multidisciplinary approach, saying no important problem today can be solved within a single stream of study.

The correct answer is 52,050. That is the count of public grievances the Ministry reported as disposed of over the period named in the release, and it is listed alongside the other results of its earlier round of the campaign. The first option is wrong because that figure belongs to the grievance appeals, a separate and much smaller category that is reported next to the grievances themselves and is frequently mixed up with them. The second option is wrong; no such figure appears anywhere in the release. The fourth option is wrong because that number is the office space freed in square feet across the Ministry and the Central Armed Police Forces, not a count of grievances at all, and it is included here precisely because a hurried reader may pick the largest number on the page. Read each figure with its unit before answering.
