RAS question
India Mobile Congress 2025 is being held at which venue in New Delhi?
Correct answer: (D) Yashobhoomi.
India Mobile Congress 2025 was held at Yashobhoomi, New Delhi, from 8 to 11 October 2025.
Explanation
PIB identifies India Mobile Congress 2025 as the ninth edition of the event, organised jointly by the Department of Telecommunications and the Cellular Operators Association of India at Yashobhoomi, New Delhi, from 8 to 11 October 2025. Yashobhoomi is therefore the correct venue, not merely another possible convention centre in the National Capital Region. PIB also frames IMC 2025 as Asia's largest technology and innovation forum, held under the theme "Innovate to Transform". The event brought together leaders, innovators, policymakers and researchers from 101 countries, with 860 exhibitors and partners, over 1,500 technology use cases, and footfall of over 1.4 lakh visitors.
Why the other options are wrong
- (A) Pragati Maidan is wrong because PIB names Yashobhoomi, New Delhi, as the venue for IMC 2025.
- (B) India Expo Centre is wrong because the ninth India Mobile Congress took place at Yashobhoomi, not at India Expo Centre.
- (C) Bharat Mandapam is wrong because IMC 2025 was held at Yashobhoomi, New Delhi.
Concept
RAS current-affairs recall often covers venues of nationally significant technology events because they connect governance, digital infrastructure and institutional initiatives in a compact news development. Official government reporting around events such as India Mobile Congress makes the venue, organiser and theme especially important for examination preparation.
