Every vendor has a right to relocate to a new area for the practice of his street vending after consultation with the town vending committee.
How many of the above statements is/ are correct?
Correct
Ans: A
Exp:
A decade has passed since the Street Vendors (Protection of Livelihood and Regulation of Street Vending) Act came into effect on May 1, 2014.
Statement 1 is incorrect: Any person above 14 years of age, who is a street vendor has to register him/herself with the Town Vending Committee (TVC).
The term “town vending committee” refers to a regulatory body under Section 22 of the act constituted by the appropriate government of the state. It can be one or more than one depending on the number of vending zones in the reason.
The TVC shall have a 40% representation from street vendors and another 10% from civil society. The remaining would be represented by local authorities, residential associations etc.
Statement 2 is incorrect: The local authority is empowered to confiscate the goods of the vendors in the manner specified in the street vending scheme.
The duties of the local authority include monitoring and supervising the street vendor scheme, monitoring the effectiveness of the TVC and deciding appeals.
Statement 3 is correct: Every vendor has to right relocate a new area for the practice of his street vending after consultation with the town vending committee.
Where the vendor has been provided with the space on time basis the vendor will occupy the space within that time frame and vacate such space as the provided time frame ends.

Consider the following statements regarding Methane:
Methane is a greenhouse gas with a lifespan of less than 5 years.
Methane has a global warming potential of about 80 times greater than that of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Methane emissions do not contribute to ground-level ozone formation.
How many of the above statements is/ are correct?
Correct
Ans: B
Exp:
An intensive modelling study has found methane emissions from fossil fuels declined between 1990 and the 2000s and have been stable since, whereas microbes have been producing more methane of late.
Statement 1 is incorrect: Methane is a powerful and short-lived greenhouse gas. It stays in our atmosphere for about 12 years. It is derived from atmospheric carbon, such as CO2.
Statement 2 is correct: Methane’s Global Warming Potential is about 80 times greater than that of carbon dioxide (CO2) after it is released into the atmosphere. (IPCC).
Without action global anthropogenic methane emissions are projected to rise by up to 13% between 2020 and 2030.
Statement 3 is incorrect: Methane emissions raise significant concerns due to their contribution to ground-level ozone formation, a hazardous air pollutant and greenhouse gas associated with approximately 1 million premature deaths annually.

Which of the following options is correct with reference to the objective of Project ISHAN?
Correct
Ans: B
Exp:
Recently, India has initiated the process of consolidating its four airspace regions into a single entity spanning the entire nation, in order to refine and strengthen air traffic management (ATM).
About ProjectISHAN:
Indian Single Sky Harmonized Air Traffic Management at Nagpur aims at all coordination for domestic flights flying in upper airspace (above 25,000 ft) will be handled by air traffic controllers (ATCOs) in Nagpur.
Flight information regions (FIRs) are controlled by a single authority, which is responsible for providing air traffic services, such as information on weather conditions, visibility, wind and runway obstacles as well as alerting services, including search and rescue assistance.
Unifying these FIRs will mean that all of these can be managed and controlled from one point — in India’s case, Nagpur.

With reference to Indian Space Situational Assessment Report (ISSAR) , consider the following statements:
The report is jointly published by Indian Space research organization and Defence Research Development Organization.
The ISSAR report 2023 highlighted a decreasing trend in Collision Avoidance Manoeuvres (CAMs) per year which indicates decreasing congestion in outer space.
Which of the given statements is/are incorrect?
Correct
Ans: C
Exp:
Recently, ISRO released the ISSAR 2023 report on vulnerability of space assets to collisions.
Statement 1 is incorrect: The Indian Space Situational Assessment Report (ISSAR) for 2023, compiled by ISRO System for Safe and Sustainable Space Operations Management (IS4OM) and released by ISRO .
Statement 2 incorrect: The report highlighted an increasing trend in Collision Avoidance Manoeuvres(CAMs) per year which indicates growing congestion in outer space. In 2023, a total of 3,033 alerts for close approaches within a distance of 1 km was detected for ISO satellites.
The report also mentioned that around 2700 close approaches were observed with other operational satellites within 5km. As per the report, ISO carried out 23 CAMs to save its satellites from harm by space debris.
Collision Avoidance Analysis (COLA) is a crucial process conducted by space agencies, including ISRO, to ensure the safety of their spacecraft and satellites. COLA involves assessing the risk of potential collisions between space objects and taking necessary measures to prevent them.

With reference to Essential Programme on Immunization, consider the following statements:
It aims to strengthen vaccine programmes by ensuring delivery of vaccines to the underdeveloped nations only.
The programme covers vaccines to treat only communicable diseases carrying the potential to cause an epidemic.
Which of the given statements is/are correct?
Correct
Ans: D
Exp:
The year 2024 marks 50 years since the launch of the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 1974.

The programme is not directed only for the underdeveloped nations.
Statement 2 is incorrect: There are now 13 vaccines (antigens) recommended by WHO for the EPI programme.
They are: Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, Haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib), Hepatitis B (HepB),polio, measles, rubella, pneumococcal disease (PNC), rotavirus (Rota), human papillomavirus (HPV), and COVID-19 (for adults). Thus not all are communicable diseases.
