Railway GK Questions 2026

At the thematic exhibition on semiconductors, DRDO showed its achievements in two critical areas, both developed at this laboratory.

The conclave was held at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi from 27 to 29 October 2026 and was inaugurated by the Prime Minister.

The event was organised by the Defence Research and Development Organisation in collaboration with CENJOWS at the Manekshaw Centre in New Delhi, and featured a seminar on DRDO defence solutions for partner nations, moving from technology to strategic partnerships.

The Minister of State for Defence released a foreign-language compendium of DRDO products in these three languages so that partner nations which do not work in English can follow India's defence offerings and engage with Indian agencies more easily.

The Minister of State for Defence described these as the four pillars of the event while inaugurating it at the Manekshaw Centre in New Delhi.

In both interceptions, the one outside Aizawl on 29 October 2026 and the one at Dholai on 30 October 2026, officers of the revenue intelligence wing worked with the Assam Rifles, which is the force deployed along the stretch of the international boundary through which these consignments move.

In the first operation, near Aizawl on the Aizawl-Champhai road, officers recovered 30 brick-shaped packets of pinkish-orange tablets weighing 30 kg from a cavity built inside an office table with a storage cabinet.

The agency, which functions under the Ministry of Finance, carried out two intelligence-led operations one after the other in Mizoram and Assam and recovered 50 kg of methamphetamine, partly as tablets and partly as crystal meth, with the operational help of the Assam Rifles.

The agreement at Sanchar Bhawan was a three-way one: Digital Bharat Nidhi under the Department of Telecommunications, the Government of Tamil Nadu, and TANFINET, which is the state agency that will carry the work on the ground under the state-led model.

The Union Cabinet approved the Amended BharatNet Programme on that day, with the stated aim of upgrading, consolidating and expanding the BharatNet network already laid, so that every gram panchayat and, on a demand basis, every village gets robust and future-ready broadband.

Digital Bharat Nidhi is that fund under a new name. It was set up under the Indian Telegraph (Amendment) Act of 2003, and the Telecommunications Act of 2023 rechristened it Digital Bharat Nidhi.

The utilisation agreement signed at Sanchar Bhawan in New Delhi carries two separate commitments for Tamil Nadu: subsidy support for more than five lakh fibre connections reaching rural homes, and connectivity on a demand basis for 4,767 villages so that the remaining last-mile gaps in the state are closed.

The correct answer is Reliance Jio, whose average download speed on that route was 209.11 Mbps.

That stretch in Kurnool district, taking in Adoni, Mantralayam and the areas around them, was driven on 17 and 18 September 2026 with six hotspot locations along the way.

Both legs of the drive test, the city drive around Hyderabad and the longer stretch across Adoni, Mantralayam and nearby areas in Kurnool district, were reported under that service area, and the work was supervised by the regional office of the regulator at Hyderabad.

A drive test measures service quality on the ground, not the commercial performance of an operator, so revenue per subscriber has no place in it.

On the Leh city drive route the average download speed was recorded as 267.13 Mbps for Reliance Jio on its 5G network, ahead of 121.65 Mbps for Airtel on 5G and 8 Mbps for BSNL on 4G. Option A is wrong because Airtel came second on this route, and option…

The drive test covered Leh and the routes around it, including the stretches towards Nubra Valley and Pangong and the road from Sakti to Sangam, and these fall in that service area for telecom licensing purposes.

TRAI invited written comments from stakeholders up to that date, preferably in electronic form, addressed to the Advisor for Networks, Spectrum and Licensing, Akhilesh Kumar Trivedi, who is also the officer to be approached for clarification.

The India AI Governance Guidelines, released by the Government of India in February 2026, rest on seven guiding sutras: Trust is the Foundation, People First, Innovation over Restraint, Fairness and Equity, Accountability, Understandable by Design, and Safety, Resilience and Sustainability.
