Cameras at the plaza read the registration plate of every vehicle that crosses, and the FASTag-based Electronic Toll Collection system then debits the user fee from the account linked to that vehicle.

It lies on the Tambaram-Tindivanam section of NH-179B and has become the first location in Tamil Nadu where the National Highways Authority of India charges toll without a boom barrier, letting vehicles roll through while cameras and FASTag settle the fee.

An alkene carries one carbon-to-carbon double bond, and that bond uses up two hydrogen atoms that a saturated chain would have held, so the formula drops from CnH2n+2 to CnH2n. Putting n equal to 2 gives C2H4, ethene, the simplest alkene; n equal to 3 gives C3H6, propene.

Carbon is a non-metal, so it does not show metallic character; it neither loses electrons to form positive ions nor shows the lustre and malleability of metals.

An ionic compound is a lattice of positive and negative ions held by strong electrostatic attraction, and that force explains all its other properties.

Ionic compounds dissolve well in water but not in kerosene, petrol or other non-polar organic solvents, so this statement is not a property of theirs.

The element with atomic number 56 is barium, and its outermost electron enters the 6s orbital, so it sits in the s-block.

Relative atomic mass is measured against the carbon-12 atom, one-twelfth of whose mass is taken as the standard unit. That unit is the atomic mass unit, written u, and it is defined as exactly one-twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon-12.

The balanced equation is 2FeSO4 → Fe2O3 + SO2 + SO3, so p = 2, q = 1, r = 1 and s = 1.

The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment launched the National Helpline Against Atrocities in December 2021 and the service was later given this name.

As reported by the states and Union Territories, 217 Exclusive Special Courts have been set up in 15 States and Union Territories to try offences under the Act of 1989, the purpose being speedy trial and quicker disposal of cases.

Average retail sugar prices have come down by this much from the peak they touched in August, and a further easing is expected as cheaper mill prices pass down the supply chain.

These were kept outside the general ceiling and given a limit twice as large, because Kolkata draws sugar from Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra and Karnataka and forwards it to eastern India including the North-East, while the higher figure for Assam reflects the geography of the region, the logistics of moving goods…

Under the revised norms a dealer may not hold more than this quantity at any time or at any place in the country, and the rule runs from 15 October 2026 to 30 November 2026.

Give Blood. Save Lives." The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare set this theme for the observance, and officials explained that it points to the humanitarian spirit behind donation and calls on eligible citizens, particularly the young, to come forward.

The day is observed on this date every year to spread awareness about voluntary blood donation and to encourage healthy, eligible people to donate regularly and without payment.

The inaugural session will examine how economic policy can build resilience without giving up growth, openness or the credibility of institutions.
