Q1Consider the following statements about the National Quantum Mission: Statement I: It was approved on 19 April 2023 for the period 2023-24 to 2030-31 with an outlay of ₹6,003.65 crore. Statement II: Its scope is confined to quantum computers and excludes quantum communication, sensing and metrology, and quantum materials and devices. Which one of the following is correct?
Statement I is correct. Statement II is incorrect because the Mission has four broad verticals: quantum computing, quantum communication, quantum sensing and metrology, and quantum materials and devices. Thus the options treating the Mission as computer-only, or rejecting the stated approval details, are eliminated.
Q2With reference to India's policy framework for blockchain and digital assets, consider the following statements: 1. Vishvasya was launched in 2024 as a national technology stack for trusted blockchain applications. 2. Virtual digital asset service providers were brought under the anti-money-laundering framework in March 2023. 3. The retail digital rupee pilot began on 1 December 2022, and the digital rupee is central bank money rather than a decentralised private crypto-token. Which of the statements given above are correct?
All three statements are correct. Vishvasya belongs to the public-service blockchain infrastructure layer; bringing virtual digital asset service providers under anti-money-laundering duties regulates risk but does not confer legal-tender status; and the retail digital rupee is issued as central bank money. Options A, B and C each omit one correct statement.
