Q1. The 5th edition of the India-Japan joint military exercise 'DHARMA GUARDIAN' commenced in which state of India?
Explanation
As the question was set for the 2024 CET cycle, it refers to the 5th edition of the India-Japan joint military exercise 'DHARMA GUARDIAN'. That edition commenced in Rajasthan, at Mahajan Field Firing Ranges. Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Himachal Pradesh are Indian states but were not the commencement location for this edition. The item is a current-affairs recall question, so the relevant context is the event as reported before the October 2024 examination, not any later edition or venue.
