Consider the following pairs regarding India’s transport-data portals: 1. VAHAN — vehicle-registration records 2. SARATHI — driving-licence services 3. e-Challan — traffic violations and fines 4. PUCC — pollution-control certificates How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?

  1. Only one
  2. Only two
  3. Only three
  4. All four

Answer

Correct Answer

All four

Explanation

Correct: D. The report explicitly assigns VAHAN to registration, SARATHI to licences, e-Challan to violations and fines, and PUCC to pollution certificates.

A understates the number of correct pairings.

B is incorrect because at least four, not two, matches are supported.

C is also incorrect because none of the four pairings is mismatched.
