Q1What is the correct set of all-pulses targets under the mission for 2030-31?

A 300 lakh hectares, 350 lakh tonnes, and 1,130 kg per hectare
B 310 lakh hectares, 340 lakh tonnes, and 1,130 kg per hectare
C 310 lakh hectares, 350 lakh tonnes, and 1,130 kg per hectare
D 310 lakh hectares, 350 lakh tonnes, and 1,030 kg per hectare
Explanation

By 2030-31, the mission seeks to expand the area under pulses to 310 lakh hectares, raise production to 350 lakh tonnes and lift average yield to 1,130 kg per hectare. Option C reproduces this complete target set; each distractor changes exactly one of the three official figures.

Q2Which one of the following correctly describes the approval, launch and duration of the Mission for Aatmanirbharta in Pulses?

A Approved on 1 October 2025, launched on 11 October 2025, and implemented from 2025-26 to 2030-31
B Approved on 11 October 2025, launched on 1 November 2025, and implemented for four years
C Announced in Union Budget 2024-25, launched on 1 October 2025, and implemented up to 2029-30
D Approved and launched on 11 October 2025, and implemented from 2026-27 to 2031-32
Explanation

The Union Cabinet approved the mission on 1 October 2025, and the Prime Minister formally launched it at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Pusa, New Delhi, on 11 October 2025. Its stated six-year implementation period is 2025-26 to 2030-31, so option A alone gets all three elements right.

Q3Consider the following statements about the Mission for Aatmanirbharta in Pulses: 1. It provides for 126 lakh quintals of certified seed to cover 370 lakh hectares by 2030-31. 2. It seeks to add 35 lakh hectares under pulses through rice fallows, other diversifiable lands, intercropping and crop diversification. 3. It plans 1,000 processing and packaging units, with subsidy up to ₹25 lakh per unit. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 only
B 1, 2 and 3
C 2 and 3 only
D 1 and 3 only
Explanation

All three statements reproduce stated provisions. The seed plan is 126 lakh quintals for 370 lakh hectares by 2030-31; area expansion is 35 lakh hectares through rice fallows, diversifiable lands and diversified cropping; and the post-harvest component plans 1,000 units with assistance capped at ₹25 lakh per unit.

Q4Match List I with List II and select the correct answer. List I: (a) SATHI portal; (b) NAFED and NCCF; (c) Processing and packaging component List II: (1) Tracking the seed chain; (2) Procurement of tur, urad and masoor in participating states; (3) Plan for 1,000 units

A a-2, b-1, c-3
B a-1, b-3, c-2
C a-3, b-2, c-1
D a-1, b-2, c-3
Explanation

SATHI provides end-to-end traceability across the seed life cycle, so a matches 1. NAFED and NCCF are named for procurement of tur, urad and masoor in participating states, so b matches 2. The post-harvest processing and packaging component plans 1,000 units, making c-3 the final correct pair.

Q5How many of the following pairs are correctly matched? 1. Mission outlay — ₹11,440 crore 2. Additional pulses area targeted — 35 lakh hectares 3. Processing and packaging units planned — 1,000 4. Certified seed planned — 126 lakh tonnes

A Two
B Three
C Four
D One
Explanation

Pairs 1, 2 and 3 reproduce the mission figures: ₹11,440 crore total outlay, 35 lakh hectares of additional pulses area and 1,000 processing and packaging units. Pair 4 changes the certified-seed unit; the stated quantity is 126 lakh quintals, not tonnes. Therefore exactly three pairs are correct.
