Practice Questions

Q1. Consider the following statements: 1. PFMS is a web-based online system designed, developed, owned and implemented by the Office of the Controller General of Accounts. 2. PFMS is limited to beneficiary payments and does not provide modules for receipts, accounting, reconciliation or financial reporting. 3. FASTag is an RFID passive tag affixed to the windshield and is vehicle-specific after affixation. 4. The barrier-less tolling system identifies vehicles through RFID tags rather than number-plate reading by cameras. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 2 only
B 2 and 4 only
C 1 and 3 only Correct
D 1, 3 and 4 only

Explanation

Statement 1 is correct because PFMS is described as designed, developed, owned and implemented by the Office of CGA. Statement 2 is false: PFMS provides modules for payments, receipts, accounting, reconciliation and financial reporting. Statement 3 is correct: FASTag is an RFID passive tag, affixed to the windshield, and vehicle-specific once affixed. Statement 4 is false by contrast with the corpus fact: barrier-less tolling identifies vehicles by camera-based Automatic Number Plate Recognition.

Q2. Consider the following statements about Aadhaar authentication: 1. Aadhaar authentication submits Aadhaar number with demographic or biometric information to CIDR for verification. 2. Aadhaar number or its authentication is not, by itself, proof of citizenship or domicile. 3. e-KYC authentication may be carried out through demographic authentication alone. 4. Aadhaar authentication is intended to validate identity instantly, anytime and anywhere. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 3 only
B 2 and 4 only
C 1, 2 and 4 only Correct
D 1, 2, 3 and 4

Explanation

Statement 1 is correct because UIDAI defines authentication as submission of Aadhaar number with demographic or biometric information to CIDR. Statement 2 is correct because Aadhaar is not proof of citizenship or domicile by itself. Statement 3 is incorrect: UIDAI clarifies that e-KYC is only through OTP and/or biometric authentication, not demographic-only authentication. Statement 4 is correct because the stated purpose is instant anytime-anywhere validation.

Q3. 1. e-NAM enables online and transparent price discovery. 2. e-NAM directly supports e-payment settlement into farmers' accounts. 3. e-NAM was launched in April 2016, not in April 2006. 4. e-NAM's single-window services include only weather forecasts and exclude prices or buy-sell offers. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 4 only
B 2 and 4 only
C 1, 2 and 3 Correct
D All four statements

Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are true because the PIB factsheet mentions transparent price discovery and e-payment settlement directly into farmers' accounts. Statement 3 is true because PIB records launch in April 2016. Statement 4 is false because the single-window services include commodity arrivals, quality and prices, buy and sell offers and e-payment settlement, not only weather forecasts.

Q4. Consider the following statements: 1. Demographic Aadhaar authentication matches Aadhaar number and demographic information with information in CIDR. 2. Biometric-based Aadhaar authentication may be fingerprint-based or iris-based. 3. Fingerprint or iris matching is classified as demographic authentication. Which of the statements given above are correct?

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

Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are correct: UIDAI separately defines demographic and biometric modes. Statement 3 is incorrect because fingerprint or iris matching belongs to biometric-based authentication, not demographic authentication.

Q5. Consider the following statements: 1. DigiLocker is a flagship initiative of MeitY under the Digital India programme. 2. DigiLocker aims at digital empowerment by giving citizens access to authentic digital documents in their digital document wallet. 3. Documents issued in DigiLocker have no legal parity with original physical documents under the Information Technology rules. Which of the statements given above are correct?

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

Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are correct as stated in the DigiLocker source. Statement 3 is incorrect because the source says issued documents in DigiLocker are deemed at par with original physical documents under Rule 9A of the 2016 rules.
