Statement 2 is incorrect: It was officially inscribed as South Sudan's first-ever UNESCO World Heritage Site, rather than a transboundary Biosphere Reserve under the Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme.
Statement 3 is correct: The region's climate, seasonal rainfall, and subsequent flood dynamics across the transition between the Sudd wetland system and the East Sudanian savanna are largely governed by the seasonal shifts of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). | 388 |
| 13 | Codes | 365 |
| 14 | Q37 Consider the following statements regarding the Badingilo–Boma Landscape,

2.It has been designated as a transboundary Biosphere Reserve under UNESCO’s Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Programme.
3.The seasonal flooding patterns of this landscape are partly governed by the movements of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
How many of the statements given above are correct?
(a) 1 only
(b) 1 and 2 only
(c) 3 only
(d) 1 and 3 only | 368 |
| 15 | Explanation
The correct answer is D. The Code on Social Security, 2020.
The Code on Social Security, 2020 amalgamates and replaces 9 central labor laws related to social security and employee benefits.
First-Ever Definition & Framework: It explicitly defines terms like "gig worker", "platform worker", and "unorganized worker", and establishes a legal framework to extend social security benefits (including life and disability cover, health and maternity benefits, and old age protection) to them.
Social Security Fund & Contribution: It empowers the Central Government to frame schemes for these workers and mandates that aggregators (e.g., digital platforms) contribute 1% to 2% of their annual turnover (capped at 5% of the amount paid or payable to gig and platform workers) toward a dedicated Social Security Fund. | 307 |
| 16 | Codes | 254 |
| 17 | Q32
Which of the four consolidated Labor Codes explicitly introduced a statutory framework for extending social security benefits to gig workers, platform workers, and unorganized workers?
A.The Code on Wages, 2019
B.The Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020
C.The Industrial Relations Code, 2020
D.The Code on Social Security, 2020 | 252 |
| 18 | Explanation
The correct answer is (d) 1 and 2 both.
Statement 1 is correct: The Legal Metrology (Indian Standard Time) Rules, 2026 establish Indian Standard Time (IST) as the single legal, administrative, and official time standard across the country under the overarching principle of "One Nation, One Time". All legal, official, and commercial documents, digital networks, and critical sectors (such as banking, telecommunications, transport, and energy) must synchronize their time references to IST.
Statement 2 is correct: The Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution (through the Department of Consumer Affairs and its Legal Metrology Division) is the Nodal Ministry responsible for formulating, notifying, and overseeing the implementation of these rules under the parent Legal Metrology Act, 2009.
Key Highlights of the Rules:
Traceability to National Standard: The time must be legally traceable to UTC(NPLI), the national primary time scale maintained by the CSIR-National Physical Laboratory (NPL).
Dissemination Sources: Time synchronization can be achieved through CSIR-NPL direct feeds, Regional Reference Standards Laboratories (RRSLs), ISRO's NavIC (Navigation with Indian Constellation), or the National Informatics Centre (NIC).
Transition Period: Entities are provided a 180-day transition period from the date of publication in the Official Gazette to upgrade systems and ensure compliance. | 249 |
| 19 | Codes | 253 |
| 20 | Q28
Consider the following statements regarding the Legal Metrology (Indian Standard Time) Rules, 2026:
1. They mandate Indian Standard Time (IST) as the single reference for legal, administrative, commercial, and official purposes across India.
2. The Nodal Ministry for the implementation of these rules is the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution.
