This is India's stated maritime vision, and the Colombo port call by the First Training Squadron is placed within it because the visit turns on joint training, professional exchange and shared maritime security rather than one-sided help.

A Passage Exercise is the short exercise two navies run when their ships are in company, usually as one of them sails on after a harbour visit, and it lets crews practise manoeuvring, communication and formation keeping together.

These three vessels sailed as the First Training Squadron on this deployment and entered Colombo harbour, where the Sri Lanka Navy welcomed them with a ceremonial reception and a naval band.

The Railway Board has decided that Station Master recruitment will no longer ride along with other graduate-level posts in a combined notice, so candidates now get a dedicated document setting out the eligibility conditions, the examination procedure and the board-wise distribution of vacancies for this post alone.

The correct answer is Mumbai, whose Railway Recruitment Board carries 177 of the posts, the largest share of any board in this round.

That is the board-wise total of Station Master vacancies notified under Centralised Employment Notice No. 08/2026, spread over the various Railway Recruitment Boards and zones of Indian Railways.

The amendment creating the pass has been issued as the National Highways Fee (Determination of Rates and Collection) (Fifth Amendment) Rules, 2026, framed under powers that this Act confers on the Central Government, and the fee rules that govern tolling on national highways flow from the same source.

The charge is set by where the plaza stands: a plaza outside a municipal or local town area costs that much for a year, while a plaza inside those limits costs twice as much.

The pass is offered to owners of non-commercial vehicles whose residence lies within a 20 km range of the fee plaza they use, and who hold a valid and working FASTag.

Mobile Number Portability lets a subscriber shift to another operator while keeping the same number, and that many requests were filed with service providers during the month.

The correct answer is urban 155.85 per cent and rural 61.30 per cent, the total tele-density figures counting both wireless and wireline connections.

The correct answer is 95.52 per cent, the overall tele-density of the country when machine-to-machine cellular connections are included in the count.

This statement is false, because sound in air travels as longitudinal waves, not transverse waves. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium vibrate back and forth along the direction in which the wave moves, forming compressions and rarefactions.

Power is the reciprocal of the focal length in metres, so P = 1 ÷ 0.25 m = +4 D. The power of a lens tells how strongly it converges or diverges light.

A solar cell turns the energy of sunlight directly into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. A solar cell is a large p-n junction, usually made of silicon.

With the same voltage, heat varies inversely as resistance, and the parallel resistance is one-fourth of the series resistance. The two wires are identical, so each has the same resistance R. In series the total resistance is R + R = 2R; in parallel it is R/2.

Tidal volume is the volume of air breathed in or out in one normal, quiet breath, about 500 mL in a healthy adult.

The cornea is a clear layer made of cells and proteins, chiefly collagen fibres laid out in a regular pattern that keeps it transparent.

The time period of a simple pendulum depends on its length but not on the mass of the bob, so halving the length divides the period by √2.

Potential difference is the work done per unit charge, so V = W/Q = 24 J ÷ 2 C = 12 V. The potential difference between two points is the work needed to move one coulomb of charge from one point to the other.
