Q1Assertion (A): A minister from Rajasthan participated in the first meeting of the SARTHI Task Force. Reason (R): The first meeting of the SARTHI Task Force was held at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi.

A Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

B Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

C A is true but R is false

D A is false but R is true

Explanation

Both statements are factually true: Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore of Rajasthan participated in the meeting, and the meeting was held at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi. However, the venue (R) does not explain why the Rajasthan minister participated (A); his participation was as a state stakeholder in ITI reforms, independent of the venue. Hence R is not the correct explanation of A, and the answer is B.

Q2With reference to the SARTHI task force, consider the following statements: 1. Its first meeting was chaired by Shri Jayant Chaudhary and held at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi. 2. It has been established as an apex advisory forum under the Craftsmen Training Scheme (CTS). Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A Both 1 and 2

B 1 only

C 2 only

D Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation

Both statements are correct. SARTHI's first meeting was chaired by Shri Jayant Chaudhary, MoS (IC) for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi on 12 June 2026 (Statement 1). It has been established as an apex advisory forum under the Craftsmen Training Scheme (CTS) to support evidence-based policy deliberations for strengthening ITIs (Statement 2). Hence both 1 and 2 are correct.

Q3Assertion (A): Ministers from several states, including Rajasthan's Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore, participated in the first meeting of the SARTHI task force. Reason (R): SARTHI has been established under the Craftsmen Training Scheme (CTS) to strengthen Industrial Training Institutes across the country.

A Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

B Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

C A is true but R is false

D A is false but R is true

Explanation

Both the Assertion and the Reason are factually true. State ministers, including Rajasthan's Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore (along with ministers from Gujarat, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh), participated in SARTHI's first meeting (A is true). SARTHI was indeed established under the Craftsmen Training Scheme (CTS) to strengthen ITIs (R is true). However, the participation of state ministers is explained by the cooperative, multi-stakeholder nature of the consultation, not by the fact that SARTHI sits under the CTS. Therefore R does not explain A, and the correct answer is B.
