Q1With reference to S&T Clusters scale-up and international engagement, consider the following statements: 1. The digital podiatry clinic expanded from PI-RAHI to BeST. 2. The first international conference of S&T Clusters was held in December 2025 with participants from more than 35 countries and 12 international MoUs. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Explanation
Statement 1 is incorrect: the digital podiatry clinic expanded from BeST to PI-RAHI, not the reverse. Statement 2 is correct: the first international conference of S&T Clusters in December 2025 had participants from more than 35 countries and 12 international MoUs were signed. Hence only statement 2 is correct.
Q2With reference to the S&T Clusters Annual Report 2025-26, consider the following statements: 1. It was launched by the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser on 13 August 2026 under the chairmanship of Prof. Ajay Kumar Sood. 2. The report covers only four S&T clusters under the PSA Office. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Explanation
Statement 1 is correct: the PSA Office launched the S&T Clusters Annual Report 2025-26 on 13 August 2026 at a meeting chaired by Prof. Ajay Kumar Sood. Statement 2 is incorrect: the report covers eight S&T clusters under the PSA Office, not four. Hence only statement 1 is correct.
