Q1. The Government of India is planning to implement a new highway toll collection system based on which technology? Choose the most appropriate option from below.
Explanation
For the 2024 question context, the planned new highway tolling system is based on the Global Navigation Satellite System, which can charge vehicles according to distance travelled on tolled stretches. Barcode scanning is used for reading printed codes and is not suitable for continuous highway tolling. Near Field Communication works only at very short range. Radio Frequency Identification is the basis of FASTag, the existing electronic toll system, but the question asks about the new planned system, for which the official key identifies satellite navigation.
