Correct Answer : Option (A) - 1898

The Indian Post Office Act of 2023 replaced the Indian Post Office Act, of 1898, bringing significant updates to postal regulations in India.

The new Act introduced provisions for the interception of postal items for security reasons exempted the Post Office from certain liabilities, and expanded regulatory oversight to include private courier services.

This legislative change reflects adaptations to modern postal and communication needs, including digital addressing systems and updated service charge mechanisms.

Correct Answer : Option (B) - Article 3

Article 3 of the Indian Constitution empowers the President to introduce a bill in Parliament for the renaming of a state, upon recommendation.

This process requires a simple majority in Parliament to enact the name change into law.

State assemblies can propose resolutions for renaming, but their views are not binding on Parliament, as seen in the case of Kerala's recent resolution to rename the state as 'Keralam', which was previously returned by the Centre due to procedural issues.

Correct Answer : Option (C) - Madhya Pradesh

The Madhya Pradesh government has approved the establishment of one PM College of Excellence in each district of the state, starting from July 1, 2024.

This initiative aims to enhance educational opportunities and promote job-oriented courses across all 55 districts of Madhya Pradesh.

Additionally, Madhya Pradesh recently initiated the country’s first helicopter pilot training school in Khajuraho, reflecting the state's commitment to advancing aviation education alongside traditional academic disciplines.
