Consider the following statements regarding ‘Parakaempferia alba’, recently seen in the news:
It is a new species of flowering plant belonging to the ginger family.
It was discovered in the Western Ghats region.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Answer: a
Explanation:
A new species of ginger, Parakaempferia alba, has been discovered in the Siang Valley of Arunachal Pradesh
About Parakaempferia alba:
It is a new species of Zingiberaceae (ginger family).
It was discovered in the Siang Valley of Arunachal Pradesh.
The plant was found in the Miglung area of East Siang District at an altitude of 150–400 meters, growing along shaded streambanks in humid, sandy soil.
Key Facts about Zingiberaceae:
Zingiberaceae, the ginger family of flowering plants, is the largest family of the order Zingiberales, containing about 56 genera and about 1,300 species.
These aromatic herbs grow in moist areas of the tropics and subtropics, including some regions that are seasonably dry.
Members of the family are perennials that frequently have sympodial (forked) fleshy rhizomes (underground stems).
They may grow to 6 metres (20 feet) in height.
A few species are epiphytic—i.e., supported by other plants and having aerial roots exposed to the humid atmosphere.
Many species are economically valuable for their spices and perfume.
The dried thick rhizome ofturmeric (Curcuma longa) is commonly ground for culinary, medicinal, and cosmetic uses.
The seeds of Elettaria cardamomum are the source of cardamom.
Ginger is obtainedfrom the fresh or dried rhizomes of Zingiber officinale, and a number of ornamental gingers are grown for their attractive flowers and foliage.
Several species of shellflower (Alpinia) are cultivated as

Consider the following statements regarding Vadhavan Port, recently seen in the news:
It is being developed as a riverine inland port.
It is located in Maharashtra.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Answer: b
Explanation:
Around 20,000 residents of Palghar district recently took out a protest march on Monday against the proposed Vadhavan port and a slew of other infrastructure projects, citing environmental damage.
About Vadhavan Port:
It is a proposed new port 140 km north of Mumbai on the coast of Maharashtra in the Palghar District.
It is being developed as an all-weather greenfield deep-draft major port.
Vadhvan offers a natural depth of 20 meters, making it ideal for large container and bulk vessels.
The project will be constructed by Vadhavan Port Project Limited (VPPL), a special purpose vehicle (SPV) formed by Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) and Maharashtra Maritime Board (MMB) with a shareholding of 74% and 26%, respectively.
The total project cost, including the land acquisition component, is Rs.76,220 Crore.
Scheduled to be finished by 2034, it is projected to be among the top 10 ports in the world.
The port will comprise nine container terminals, each 1000 meters long; four multipurpose berths; including the coastal berth, four liquid cargo berths, a Ro-Ro berth, and a Coast Guard berth.
The project involves the reclamation of 1,448 hectares of area in the sea and the construction of 10.14 km of offshore breakwater and container/cargo storage areas.
The Project will create a cumulative capacity of 298 million metric tons (MMT) per annum, including around 23.2 million TEUs (twenty-foot equivalents) of container handling capacity.
The strategic location of Vadhavan Port provides it with a unique edge.
Situated just 12 km from the Dedicated Rail Freight Corridor and 22 km from the Mumbai-Vadodara Expressway, the port will connect seamlessly to industrial centers across Maharashtra, Gujarat, and beyond.
The capacities created will also aid EXIM trade flow through IMEEC (India Middle East Europe Economic Corridor) and INSTC (International North South Transportation Corridor).

Consider the following statements regarding the Type 096 Tang-Class Submarine, recently seen in the news:
It is a nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN).
It is developed by China.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Correct
Answer: c
Explanation:
China has unveiled the most significant upgrade to its undersea nuclear capability with the unveiling of the Type 096 Tang-Class ballistic missile submarine recently.
About Type 096 Tang-Class Submarine:
The Type 096 (NATO reporting name of Tang-class) submarine is China’s next-generation nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN).
It is bigger, stealthier, and armed with longer-range missiles than its predecessors.
Features:
It will displace around 20,000 tons when submerged, placing it in the same weight class as theS. Navy’s Ohio-class submarines.
It is said to have raft-mounted machinery, hull isolation systems, and a propulsion design that minimizes acoustic signatures during patrols.
These features are aimed at making the sub harder to detect in contested waters.
The vessel’s pressurized water-cooled nuclear reactor powers a single shaft via a steam turbine arrangement.
Modern power plant elements and improved vibration dampening technologies are said to enhance submerged speed and stealth performance.
The submarine is expected to carry between 16 and 24 JL-3 submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs), each capable of ranges exceeding 10,000 to 12,000 kilometers and equipped with multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs).
It can also launch wire-guided, high-speed Yu-6 torpedoes with a range of over 29 km.
